nhs67 Posted April 21, 2023 Author Posted April 21, 2023 TMS declined her spot and will not compete this year. @Mike Parrish, you think there is any chance we see some of the 76 KG ladies head down for WTT? If so, who? Makoyed looks huge, so I doubt her at the very least. "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me

Let them fight. 68 KG is also an Olympic weight, though. You telling me if Welker, Guilford, Blades, or Bell gets handed 3 convincing losses none if them are going to take their shot at Molinari rather than run the gauntlet at 76 KG again? Edit: I know 8 KG is just over 17.5lbs. Edited April 22, 2023 by nhs67 "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me

Anyone at any other weight (65 or 72 or even 62) have a real shot at FM? She is tough as nails, but I don't know about her chances to medal at 68 KG. "I know actually nothing.

nhs67 Posted April 22, 2023 Author Posted April 22, 2023 To be clear, I think she handles Grote (again). I am just curious if anyone will be competitive with her "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me

She is tough as nails, but I don't know about her chances to medal at 68 KG. Forrest is overrated. If Amit drops, which I doubt, she'll crush Forrest. Watch Glaude or Piearcey. I don't see Grote dropping and I don't see any chance even if she does. Technique is not her strong suit. Edited April 22, 2023 by Mike Parrish 1

nhs67 Posted April 22, 2023 Author Posted April 22, 2023 Also, @Jon_Kozak, it appears Hidlay has changed his registration back to 86 KG. "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me
bnwtwg Posted April 22, 2023 Posted April 22, 2023 I’m OOTL - has it been shared why TMS isn’t competing this year? i am an idiot on the internet

nhs67 Posted April 23, 2023 Author Posted April 23, 2023 Anybody care to offer their predictions? Perhaps a top 3, with champion choice? Like 86 KG. Top 3 are Valencia, Hall, and Brooks with the champion being Valencia. 1 "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me

If Hidlay is at 92 KG I have Jackson out and Hidlay in w/ Moore still being the victor. 1 "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me
