According to an interview they just had he said he will be competing at u23 worlds for some reason. Not too sure why I would rather some other guy go and wrestle.

@CHROMEBIRD The blockchain was really more of an analogy. It started as joke since the UWW uses blockchain for the draws. However, the idea of having a public resource where everyone can find information is something we lack. I mentioned other sports having this, but everyone has this data problem. You can't easily aggregate NCAA D2 basketball results with NBA results. BUT, generally, within the organization they compete (NCAA, NBA, probably some high school leagues) some level of record keeping is there. Wrestling has this; I remember reading about Nick Simmons going for the national pin record. Ben Askren has talked about trying to get the Wisconsin take down record. But, in my opinion there is a gap. It should be easier to find NCAA D1 wrestling results. I don't know what the "real" solution. I have ideas. I see @Jason Bryant here. The guys at wrestlestat do some amazing work. The way UWW is moving with a standardized PDF for their official tournaments is nice. I think there is a huge opportunity for track (flo) to use the tournament management software. They are collecting the data which is probably the biggest hurdle. Given those companies make money off being really good a running tournament systems I don't blame them for not allocating resources to give their data away for free. It's a bit of a gamble.

Where did you get the Japan team from

My picks are below. As for Yousefi, I don't see him beating Haines. Ohers maybe. Rrahmani too, if he can't beat McEnelly, can he beat Welsh and others? HWT I have no idea, it's a weak field, maybe Lotfi has a shot here too 57 kg Luke Lilledahl 61 kg Jax Forrest 65 kg Sujeet 70 kg PJ Duke 74 kg Aoyagi 79 kg Levi Haines (if he's wrestling. If not, Yousefi) 86 kg Rahmani 92 kg Khaniev 97 kg Yoshida 125 kg ???? No idea

Here's the list USA Russia (likely) Iran Japan Other Luke Lilledahl Ayanday Ondar Milad Valizadeh Yuta Kikuchi Zangaladze, Indian Jax Forrest Fedor Baltuev Reza Momeni Akito Mukaida Nuraddin Novruzov, Udit Marcus Blaze Bashir Magomedov Yasin Rezaei Yuta Nishiuchi Sujeet Kalkal, Jalolov PJ Duke Umar Umarov Sina Khalili Kaito Morita Kanan Heybatov Mitchell Mesenbrink Magomed Baitukaev Mohammad Shakeri Yoshinosuke Aoyagi M-Bashir Khaniev (AZE) Levi Haines Davud Daudov Mehdi Yousefi Subaru Takahara Khidir Saipudinov (BRN), Lu Feng Rocco Welsh Arsen Balayan / Ibragim Kadiev Abolfazl Rahmani Fumiya Igarashi Rakhim Magamadov (FRA) Josh Barr Mukhamed-Takhir Khaniev Mohammadmobin Azimi Taisho Masuda Andro Margishvili (GEO), Kurugliev GK Kouekabakilaho Soslan Djagaev Abolfazl Babaloo Arash Yoshida Rizabek Aitmukhan (KAZ) Daniel Herrera Davudgadzhiev // A.Kurbanov Mohammadreza Lotfi Ryusei Fujita Hakan Büyükçıngıl (TUR)

*Respected a Scotsman cause of his Scottishness Fixed it for you

Mehdi yousefi won the junior world in August . He's a medal contender definitely . Rahmani is good. The rest idk. About Greco, Farokhisenjani just won the senior worlds i don't think he'll wrestke next month .

Who are the US and Russia sending. I feel like you are underestimating some of the guys. Azimi is a U20 world champ at this weight class and Yousefi is the reigning u23 and u20 champ.

lol no, looking at other teams, I see 0 golds in this team, maybe Rahmani but that's it. Yousefi also a longhsot, if Haines is out, but if Haines is in shape, IDK. Others are no gold threats.

Not a bad list tbh I could see maybe 3-4 golds and 7 medals total from this team. Sina Khalili, Mehdi Yousefi, Abolfazal Rahmani and Mobin Azimi are very good wrestlers. I wonder what our Greco team is going to look like. I think Farokhi will be our 82kg rep apparently.

Thanks . I only know Rahmani and sina khalili among this list.

This is what I heard: 57 kg Milad Valizadeh 61 kg Reza Momeni 65 kg Yasin Rezaei 70 kg Sina Khalili 74 kg Mohammad Shakeri 79 kg Mehdi Yousefi 86 kg Abolfazl Rahmani 92 kg Mohammad Mobin Azimi 97 kg Abolfazl Babaloo 125 kg Mohammadreza Lotfi

Agreed. It's time. What are you useless politicians waiting for? Get it done.

So it was a white guy who shot detainees and no actual government agents were harmed. Either he has terrible aim or there's more to the story.

Any news on Who's Iran sending for the next under 23 worlds next month ?

Mike Benz was spitting nails yesterday, saying these people are saying they’re not an organization when there’s all kinds of evidence of their organization. Recalled that back in the 90’s all the white supremecist groups were so infiltrated that half, or better, of their membership were undercover assets. Ruby Ridge started when an undercover hired Randy Weaver to cut the barrel on a shotgun. That if they really went after them, they’d clean them out fast. But we’ll still need prosecutors and judges to put them away. The country might be in the mood for it now, that’ll help.

He didn’t quit.

So weird. So many on here said they would never find any antifa people cause they don’t have a roster. So weird right ? I guess I’m confused. This is some good good terrorist stuff too. Not the standard black block umbrella protestors either. Federal pound me in the azz prison.

Weird in like terrified?

Looks like they found a few of the anarchists. https://www.ngocomment.com/p/two-more-arrested-in-north-texas

125: Jacob Moran, Indiana 133: Ben Davino, Ohio State 141: Joseph Olivieri, Rutgers 149: Caleb Henson, Virginia Tech 157: Daniel Cardenas, Stanford 165: Joseph Blaze, Purdue 174: Levi Haines, Penn State 184: Aaron Ayzerov, Columbia 197: Josh Barr, Penn State 285: Isaac Trumble, NC State

Weird that the Trump appointed attorney quit rather than pursue these cases.

I’m not sure that applies to dimocrats.

He wasn't trying to be a d*ck about it either. We were sharing a cab to the airport in Budapest back in 2013 and he just mentioned it in conversation when I was asking about men wrestling freestyle in Sweden.

All of his results I've seen are from Sweden. The UWW database has Russian Nationals placements, but not outside of their Senior Nationals.
