The most likely upset is Masoumi over Zare though. The more I think about it the more I see Masoumi beating him.

Why this time?

Massoumi’s results have been on an upward trajectory and he seems to be entering his senior era although Zare’s strengths are his gas tank and comparatively higher experience which may still seem him through. It feels like it will be closer than previous occasions but also too close to call for me personally.

I wouldn't disagree.

I believe at 24 Zare hasn't reached his peak yet.

I also believe Massoumi is a force.

My thoughts are quite similar to Window12's but also I feel that he has matured a lot within the last couple years. He isn't making the same mistakes he was a couple years ago and he is physically more developed for 125kg than previously. In saying that Zare has a point to prove after loosing the olympic gold but I think the momentum is in Masoumi's favour.

Understood.

I still want to know if they have only wrestled three (3) times.

There are no backroom matches between these two at team camps and whatnot?
