everything you can see on the poster in English is correct, not google translate. that just can't translate Persian calendar which is entirely different.
watching the squads (and also brackets for the 1st day) I see so many familiar names. some of them even wrestled in World Senior Champs less than a month ago in Hungary !! Tsurtsumia, Pataridze, Abbasov etc. how desperate are those counties to win medals in this level ?! Tsurtsumia almost won the seinor world title in Budapest. it doesn't make sense to make him cut weight again in such a short time for what ? winning the Worlds U23 ?
about Chamizo. you should remember he is now wrestling with guys heavier than himself. it takes time to adopt to the new weight class. each weight class has its own style of wrestling. he will be fine but I think he had wrong strategies in both matches. Sidakov was very beatable for him. btw who is his coach ? I assume there is no local high level freestyle coach in Italy. but his coach rarely talks to him from what i see. some Iranian wrestling experts recognizes him as Murad Gaidarov which is a bit surprising for me.
No its not Murad Gaydarov, it is his brother Gaydar Gaydarov, former coach of Dagestan national team.
because of daddy Trump. the whole economy of Iran is in crisis now. but hosting competitions is not a big issue yet. the problem is sending teams abroad. they have to pay 3-4 times more than a year ago for plane tickets etc.
I see. However from what i know, when iran hosts scoolbooys, cadet and junior competitions, Iranian federation pays for the tickets and accomodation. At least its the way how it works with Azerbaijan and its really good for us, due to the fact that our federation is also in crisis.
Freestyle team is weak. From what i know Iran has huge financial problems which is affecting financing wrestling as well. November according to UWW calendar Iran is going to host U-15, cadet and junior international tournaments. Do you think there is a possibility they can be cancelled?

Turan is huge talant. It was just a bad luck that he didnt beat Magsoudi in Junior semis. Not the best example you brought up.
