Me too, especially WKF is known best for distributing medals universally 

Yeah and he looked unstoppable as if he didn't belong to the qualifiers. But I also believe Karate is the best bet for medals for Egypt right? Except for Mehelba brothers in shooting and some wrestlers. Can you throw some light on your team. I am  curious to know about Egypt squad for Tokyo

Yes Karate is our best shot for medals Giana Farouk and Ferial Ashraf are the best shots for me besides Ali El Sawy, Azmy Mhelba in men's skeet, I don't really trust his brother Abdelaziz in men's trap, Mohamed Ibrahim in Wrestling men's -67 kg, Seif Eissa in men's -80 kg in taekwondo and MP duo Ahmed El gendy and Ahmed Hamed pls some outsiders in fencing, maybe Showjumping which could be a real surprise, Hedaya Mala in women's taekwondo -67 kg

Canada only has one chance in Karate, Gaysinsky in +84, afaik, he has beaten everyone in this cycle once except Gogita of :GEO, so he might have a very outside chance of winning a medal. 

 

In boxing there is 0 chance imo to win a medal. I predict all of them will win at most 1 match each.

-67kg: :FRA :KAZ :TUR :JPN

-75kg: :ITA :AZE :UKR :KAZ

+75kg: :IRI :GER :JPN :GEO

 

 

side polls...

 

1) in Karate we look for at least 1 gold medal (Luigi Busà, men's -75kg) and 3 medals overall, if not 4 (Viviana Bottaro, women's Kata, Silvia Semeraro, women's +61kg and maybe even Angelo Crescenzo, men's -67kg)...

in Boxing, Irma Testa (women's -57kg) surely goes for a medal (to me, she should win gold, but we all know that in Boxing it's not a question of what happens on the ring), Angela Carini (women's -69kg) might also win a medal if she gets a very favourable draw (there are at least 2/3 girls definitely better than her)...

 

2) :JPN :ESP :VEN :USA

 

3) no changes on the rules, just get rid of Kata as an Olympic event (replaced by the missing Kumite weight classes) and of course increase the number of athletes per weight class...you can't have only 10 participants at the Olympic tournament when you normally have more than 100 at the world champs...

organizational improvement (better scheduling and above all, better picture quality in the streaming coverage) in the regular tournaments would be also appreciated...

1) All 3 Ukrainian karateka can win a medal. Terliuga and Horuna our best hopes , but Seryogina is Silver Medalist of European Championship and I think she also our medal contender

2) In boxing Ukraine have Oleksandr Khyzhniak , who win the European Qualification Tournament

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
