Jon_Kozak Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Hey friends, haven't seen any Yarygin discussion on here so I figured I'd start it up. I've got full results with some matches embedded here: https://www.flowrestling.org/articles/11957042-2024-yarygin-wrestling-tournament-brackets-results Nothing too crazy has happened but Sadulaev is back and wasn't really challenged in any of his matches on his way to the finals today. 74 kg finals should be really good between Kadimagomedov and Baev. 4

Whay happened to Nokhodi at 86 KG for Iran? Edited January 27 by nhs67 "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me

I don't think Nokhodi was ever registered but Savadkouhi lost round one at 86kg to Tazhitin Akaev who's really solid. Akaev just beat Amanulla Gadzhimagomedov last month - that's who beat Artur Naifonov (world/Olympic bronze) last year at Russian Nationals. So not a bad loss for Savadkouhi but he's not the same guy he was at 79kg. Savadkouhi also lost to Hadi Vafaeipour in December at Iranian nationals. His chances of making the Olympic team right now are pretty slim. 2
FanOfPurdueWrestling Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Why were there no Americans? Isn’t this a tournament that we generally send some of our better guys to to get international experience? btw- I fear for Snyder at the Olympics…. 1 I am very active on X: https://x.com/WrestlingSNL

I’m not arguing his past success, one of the American GOATS. But this is a future event and he’s taken lumps this year. I am very active on X: https://x.com/WrestlingSNL
MPhillips Posted January 29 Posted January 29 7 minutes ago, FanOfPurdueWrestling said: But this is a future event and he’s taken lumps this year. I don't disagree. I just thought it was ironic... He's probably wrestled more matches than anyone internationally for the last eleven years (if I'm wrong, I'm certain someone will tell me). He takes losses here and there. I'll back him until he's finished... 2 .
Truzzcat Posted January 29 Posted January 29 Bekzod (former clarion wrestler) had a great tournament at 74 and kadi recemented himself as a serious threat at the weight bizohev and baev wondering how many kilos they were allotted if making scratch 74 has been hindering his performances.

SocraTease Posted January 30 Posted January 30 To Jon Kozak (who seems to be in the know): Is the scheduled wrestle off between Yianni and Nick Lee still happening this weekend? I see Yianni's name listed for the Pan Am qualifiers. Is that just pro forma or has Lee withdrawn? Thanks.

UWW has deadlines for their initial entry list and USA Wrestling can change entries up until a day or two before the event. 1

BAC Posted February 2 Posted February 2 Is going to Russia even an option? It's been on the State Department's "Do Not Travel" list since the Ukraine invasion, and I'm not aware of any USA Wrestling-sanctioned visits to Russia since the invasion, nor since Russia was barred from international competition. I'm not aware of any specific rule barring a US athlete from flying to Russia and competing, but I suspect they'd be doing it without the support of USA Wrestling. 3

I wouldn't risk going into Russia right now either... 1
