Russia was never a super power in women's wrestling, they are just another decent team. why ? that's simple. most of top Russian freestyle wrestlers are from Dagestan. probably 7-8 from the current team in Albania. and I assume in that region women are not encouraged to take this sport. if you remove Dagestan from Russia, their men's freestyle team will do more or less the same. I'm not familiar with the Russian culture in general but I assume even nation-wide (and not only Dagestan) this is considered the men's sport. of course in the World Championship those 3 teams you mentioned can go toe to toe with Russia or even do better. from this Russian team I only see Sadulaev to win the gold at worlds. (+ Sidakov if he returns and maybe Uguev depending on Japan's squad ) still the depth of Russian freestyle is unmatched. they can send their #5 guy and be still competitive for a top 6 finish, can't say the same about any other team. -

In the women's, however, Russia took a strong beating from Ukraine, but surely there wasn't a all top-tier Russian girls here? Judo, in my opinion, is developing better and more countries are at the leading countries, than wrestling. Situation is slightly better in the world than in Europe, because we do have the USA, Japan and Iran. Unfortunately in Europe, this sport is a joke and is becoming a second table tennis, where people from other countries are naturalized and win medals for others, even though they have nothing in common with them. -

Argentinian Nacra team also are very good. -
Turienzo is developing! She's still away from the level of Nolot, Moroz and Kampman but I expect a good performance at the WCh. Her peak years are still to come (not even 20 yet). -
in the first night of freestyle finals, Russia won 4 out of 5 golds. they have 2 in the final tomorrow, I think they can reach their pre-tournament goal of winning 6 golds. but interestingly all 20 medalists of tonight were either from Ex-Soviet countries or Russian mercenaries representing somewhere else I think it's fair to say men's freestyle wrestling is dead and buried in Europe unfortunately. (I mean the old Europe excluding Ex-Soviets) hopefully the new UWW policy pushes some of these countries to restart their own program instead of just buying mercenaries but that will take time.

It was rather a little joke on my part - she never competed on a bike, like Sablikova, but rather combined skating with roller skating. I very like her character- she is very similar to Longo Borghini and unfortunately not every our women`s cyclist has something like that. -

With the strength of the Netherlands and their good strategy you can be confident about the good future, which can`t be said about Italy, where everything is and has always been a great unknown and improvisation -

Okay, mental strength and ambition are importatn thing, but you still need a lot of money for preparation and training, and working in Ukraine for the last 4 years has been very risky. Also, there is certainly more money going into to higher the army than, say: 10 or 15 years ago- sport is simply not a priority there anymore, like in the USSR years, or around 2000 - at least I think so. -
