  1. Past hour
  2. The only wrestler in the US with a reasonable chance to win a bronze or silver medal is Bey. And Bey would still need a favorable draw (to avoid someone like Akzhol) and to be wrestling his best to actually do it. The rest of them are not good enough. Some of them I think aren't athletically gifted enough and they maneuvered their way into greco "safe spaces" after rude wake up calls in their folk style journeys (somewhat big fish moving into a small pond). A couple are fine athletes but are thousands of hours behind in greco mat time compared to their competitors. I think I saw a Flo guy named Brey complaining about why the 55 kg rep couldn't do what the US teen freestylers did. It's clueless and he doesn't even understand why the FS wrestlers in the US do well. Why should Raney beat someone like Azizli? He hasn't put in anywhere near the time, it's just winging it Braxton Amos style. It can work in juniors but you get exposed at seniors. (I'm not counting the Georgian adult transfer, since he is about as relevant to the actual state of US wrestling as Taz is to Bahrain).
  3. Remember is the systemic racism of white men who drive blacks into their way of life. No matter what the issue it's white men and the white man system that is to blame
  4. Iran GR is notable if not more...
  5. GR was ripe for the taking. Russia was a paper tiger, coasting on the legacy and fumes of the soviet era in the 90s through 2010s. A country who put together a critical mass of participation and concentrated training from a young age could topple them. And it looks like Iran did. Congrats.
  6. I'm not a fan of that guy who spends the fist two minutes of every bout reading a section of the wrestlers' wikipedia entries .... U20 bronze medalist, U23 silver, Asian championships Gold, Asian Games Silver medal. What's the point if you just rattle off 20 medals for both wrestlers and don't give any context to what they mean? Mentioning if one of them is a highly decorated legend or on a win streak is fine, but we don't need to know about their 5 man field continental bronzes and U20 accolades.
  7. I think the current Amouzad is p4p best freestyle wrestler in the world. Shamil can push him no doubt and its good to fight for your position because it make you train harder .
  8. This is what Wrestlestat is showing for Northern Iowa right now - vs what I think its going to be: 125: Trever Anderson - no argument here 133: Julian Farber - in agreement 141: Carter Freeman - I think Cory Land will take it 149: Caleb Rathjen - yep 157: Cael Rahnavardi - I think Ryder Downey or Jack Thomsen sucks down 165: Ryder Downey - see above 174: Jared Simma - yes 184: CJ Walrath - mm hm 197: Kalob Runyon - I think John Gunderson bumps up and surprises folks 285: Wyatt Volker - agreed
  9. They really really are trying hard or just want him to be MAGA. It’s one reason Kimmel “didn’t say anything wrong”. 1038675309 does it almost every time there is a despicable act fwiw. saying he didn’t vote means he either isn’t political or a leftist. That way they don’t have to count it as a politically motivated murder.
  10. This changes what he did and why, how??
  11. That’s true. I was just looking at our results, but they were definitely impressively
  12. Today
  13. Shirley you aren't suggesting Wkn is irrational? Although I did take an economics course in rational expectations/behavior and there was no mention of Wkn so ...
  14. Thoughts on these 8 pro censorship humans ?
  15. Do you guys know if the Wrestling world Cup is canceled permanently ?
  16. Pin Numbers disagree with you.
  17. Throwing daggers....
  18. He should come to Iran and have a domestic rivalry with Amouzad
  19. This would be a great signature line.
  20. Mamedov was clearly angry with the Russians for not letting him compete in Paris. I assume that he made a deal with Russians - he was missing the Olympics due to political pressure and in return they were signing the letter of attestation (so letting him leave Russian Federation). All the injury talk is distraction. He did not take part because he was moving countries. He hasn't represented Russia after Seprember 2023 - 2 full years. Last year, or maybe earlier, he started the process for changing federations to Bulgaria, which paid at least 260,000 USD, and most probably much more informally, to Russia. Then at some point leadership in Bulgarian federation changed and they don't want the transfers to represent Bulgarians - only locals. We are in this moment - now if you have a solution please present one.
  21. In food labeling there is a little trick called ingredient splitting. It's where you break down the list until the one you want gets to the top. This is why you see kids cereal has multiple types of sweeteners. Like corn syrup and cain sugar listed separately. If they didn't break down the sugar into multiple types then it would be the #1 ingredient. This is real common in dog food also. They break down the fillers to make it look like the protein source is the #1 ingredient. The Islamists clearly belong to the left and their attacks are political. Acting stupid to deny the obvious isn't a great strategy.
  22. It’s official. Iran won the GR team championship if iran wins the two finals tomorrow, this will be one od the most dominant wins in recent histoy.
  23. The fact is gangs commit thoudands of more times the violent crimes vs politically motivated crimes. Liberals just don’t care because it’s black on black or black on brown crime is not their priority.
  24. I don't see why he is trying to transfer. He is young and probably better than the guy they sent this year. If I am correct he did not take part in their trials due to an injury. I'm guessing he would be the favourite to win the spot for Russia at 65 next year. Maybe he just hates having to make a team or has a beef with the Russian federation because they made him miss the Olympics?
  25. I don't get why though. They already have Ramazanov and his brother . Why not shamil !! Shamil has two wins over amouzad. Bahrain would welcome him in their team anyway.
