Poll: Who will win gold at 74kg?

[ILLINIWrestlingBlog]

I voted Dake, and I don't think it's a Homelander vote.

Well as of today Valiev is out and Sidakov is in. So there goes the poll.

I just created a new, updated poll, in a new thread. If a moderator would delete this thread I'd appreciate it.

I’m pretty confident that Dake is going to win it.

There is a part of me that just wants to see Dake v Sidakov.  Obviously I hope its for gold, but I just hope the match happens.  Been a long time coming.

This will be the first time that the 74kg category has been fully stacked.  I'm taking Sidakov.

Does anyone know where I can find a link to the full Tokyo Kadi vs Dake match? I know a few YT links w/ highlights, but I'd love to rewatch it in full.

My guess is the NBC the IOC has it on pretty strict lockdown.  It may be on YouTube but unavailable to the general public.  I have heard athletes say that the IOC is so restrictive that they are unable to watch their own Olympic bouts.

It is not available for pubic consumption at this time. 2020ne Tokyo olympics have been scrubbed from Peacock and full matches were not uploaded to Youtube; only highlights of medal matches and select semis were uploaded to Youtube. The closest publicly available without hitting the high seas is the DPS breakdowns on youtube. NBC and the IOC are particularly vicious when it comes to DMCA takedowns.

pretty much it

UWW uploaded all the Rio 2016  olympics matches to their Youtube channel ... but they took until 2019 to do it. 

 

So I guess maybe wait 1 or 2 more years?
