Oh- I haven’t gone with that look for ages- it was so 1980’s. Anyway sorry- my comment seems to have vexed you…

May be it’s not so much a getting a vote but having an opinion - which has far less formal restrictions and generally considered allowed….

Is the irony you have in mind -the named Kurugliev Vs Anonymous Greek Guy?

Iran GR team… Ooph… Did not expect that level of performance

Yes- I do

The 4 GR guys who competed today managed to make GR wrestling interesting … https://www.instagram.com/reel/DOwH8FgCHMp/?igsh=MTAzMTA5eGZ6b2Jlaw==

Thank you- this is very helpful statistics. Can I deduce that in 23 years there have been 6 occasions that the title was won by a wrestler older that 25 so an average probability of 26% per year to have a champ older than 25. I can see it gets harder as you get older but certainly not impossible?

It seems a bit odd to write someone off so decidedly when he did a decent job of winning the title. He probably has as good a chance as anyone in 2028 if not better….

Surely you jest- I was being led to believe it would be Hendrickson. They even had a fancy press conference a meagre few days ago.

They are diluted as a lot of top Russians are wrestling for other countries.

A little while ago there was a sparring video of Snyder with Akgul- he was being manhandled by Akgul. Snyder will be at a significant disadvantage at 125 let alone winning it

Let’s hope that does not happen to Amouzad then. Will be a loss to wrestling I would have thought

Amouzad just won 65kg final comfortably. He won silver at 65 at the Olympic and another gold 2 years previously. They say 65 is one of the toughest in terms of parity. I would say if you win 2 gold in 4 year and an Olympic silver so medalling 3 out of 4 years then you are doing something right. I wonder who has done some something to match him- Otoguro? Kiyooka? Mamedov? I think with that track record he would want to stay at the weight as long as he can

Did Nokhodi underperform? If i recall correctly the Greek athlete that beat him also beat the American competitor in the final comprehensively. I’d say Nokhodi lost to a better wrestler who looked like an absolute monster and who deserves to be the champ.

He says he has 6 kids- one is a girl.
