well this is it. not a bad opening day, 2 gold, 2 silver and 1 bronze. Yazdani's gold medal was a sure thing but Karimi was a nice surprise. didn't expect him to beat guys much heavier than himself. I'm still mad at Hosseinkhani. this guy should be banned from wrestling forever. same goes to Nassiri. I think Atri also did good (considering his low potential) to win a bronze. 57kg in Asia is always tough.

start list in weightlifting

Askari is in Group B ! wow he had no chance but still .group B. seriously ?!

looks like 85kg is wide open, all 7 weightlifters in Group A have more or less the same entries ! I hope Makvandi shows something special

94kg gold and silver belong to Iran unless Rostami does something stupid and bombs out trying to challenge Moradi ! that Qatari/Egyptian kid is good though.

105kg looks like a tough battle between 5-6 weightlifters. mostly Nurudinov and two Iranians, even though we can't underestimate the Korean guy. that Iraqi guy usually have big entries but doesn't perform well in the competition.

again +105kg gold and silver probably will go to Iran but that's not a sure thing. Djungabaev has the same entry

well Bekzod Abdurakhmonov has the same situation. he is from Boston. so actually 3rd medal since Bekzod won two Asiad golds before him.

 

I don't think this Domenic guy is something special. he won few matches mostly because he was "unknown" and his opponents probably had no clue about him. we will see if he can continue to win medals in Asia or not.
