Semi-final time?  Flo says 1pm EST, UWW says 10:45am EST?

Which is correct?

[Eagle26]

I didn’t think I’d see Yazdani and Taylor both get taken down in the quarters. Amine wrestled Yazdani tough. Sharipov wrestled Taylor tough and still got teched

Great first session. Go team.

My buddy there in Serbia is saying semis start in 75 minutes

Karimi got beat on by Zahid and went 1-1 with Moore.  He isn't even their 2nd best option at 86 KG.

As I said... fake title.

FAIR!

Retherford vs Andreasyan @ 70kg from last year's world quarters highlights (couldn't find the full match).

[Spladle08]

Vito, Zain Train, DT are all pretty decent favorites. 
And  Mason is an underdog but not a big one .
every 125kg Semi-finalist has looked a little vulnerable 

[Jason Bryant]

Starts in about 20 minutes (4:45 local time)

A roofer.

He's from Puerto Rico so it was a play on thatched roofs.

While roofers are continually busy in Puerto Rico the island is hardly known for thatched roofs. Their common roofing materials are corrugated tin and aluminum, wood with asphalt shingles, wood shake, and reinforced concrete. There are about 300 homes still utilizing blue tarps issued by FEMA.

Semis running one match at a time?

Why would you have them do that? 

[ILLINIWrestlingBlog]

After watching only the morning session, and making assumptions based on that, who here thinks Gable Steveson and WWE are having second thoughts. Zare looked good in one match, but in that one match his opponent was, like Cheech & Chong, running on fumes. Akgul looked reasonable. Petro okay but vulnerable.

I think they all looked a little extra human. 
And I was just explaining (too my girlfriend)  how good Parris's chances "SEEM" based on previous rounds, BUTTTTTTTTTT. 
I then explained too her, yes they all have World Championships, and they all made the semi finals so no matter how you slice it, they haven't lost and you have to beat these guys to win world gold, if Geno beats Parris 2-1  (we as Americans feel some type of way about it) but in the grand scheme (from every other country's viewpoint) Geno just squeaked by another opponent with no Senior World Level Credentials to make his millionth final. 
So Lets see if any of them raise their level here to match the opponent or gravity of the situation. 
But we expected them to all be winners and they were all winners, I'm not sure we can get caught up on the score so much and translate it to "Gable wouldve shown up at 100% while all these guys showed up at 60%...." Gable may have looked off as well, you never know.
