MHSN 3,231 Posted November 6, 2018 #71 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Poursheib just beat the host Karateka in his opening match, next match will be interesting against USA, but that American guy Kamran Madani is actually Iranian considering the Olympic qualification, Poursheib is in the same weight as Ganjzadeh , so I care less about Olympics qualification for him. for him only winning a world medal matters. but there is an Israeli guy not far from Poursheib. hope someone takes care of him soon.

heywoodu 13,570 Posted November 6, 2018 #74 Share Posted November 6, 2018 That sportdata website is so ridiculously slow An athlete's profile like this takes forever to load (and it's not even a good one, it doesn't even show their birth date for example ) http://setopen.sportdata.org/wkfranking/ranking_main_competitor.php?ranking_country=COL&ranking_competitor=&ranking_competitor_name=SINISTERRA SINISTERRA CARLOS ALBERTO If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

heywoodu 13,570 Posted November 6, 2018 #76 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Great, day 1, all 6 Dutch athletes out basically immediately, including Tyron Lardy, ranked 6th in the world and Timothy Petersen, who won European bronze last year and now lost against a Colombian who's 300th or something (although to be fair, Petersen injured his foot last month and only barely made the world champs) If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

phelps 6,940 Posted November 6, 2018 Author #77 Share Posted November 6, 2018 and the disaster for Italy is now complete...also Silvia Semeraro (women's -68kg) is out in an early round after losing to an unknown Norwegian... in just an afternoon we probably have already compromised our chances to qualify an athelte to both the heavyweight classes in Tokyo...these championships are already highly disappointing, even if tomorrow we put 4 people in the gold medal matches (which won't happen, in any case)... when it really matters, Italy fail...that's obvious...

MHSN 3,231 Posted November 6, 2018 #79 Share Posted November 6, 2018 so at the end of the day, Ganjzadeh in the final against Germany and Poursheib will fight for bronze vs Kazakhstan. I was expecting more but this is kumite, nothing is guaranteed. I hope both can repeat their 2016 medals (gold for Ganjz and bronze for Poursheib) but what a disastrous day for Iranian girls. both lost in the 1st round. Zangeneh lost to Cuba !
