probably the only good thing about UWW is they are fast in re allocating medals ! and surprisingly, they are going to give the gold medal to our Komeil Ghasemi ! :yikes::thumbup:

if I was Russia I would protest the decision. the only reason they are giving it to Ghasemi is because he lost to the gold medalist and Makhov lost to the silver medalist ! to me that's not a good reason to justify the decision. I still think having double gold medalists is a better idea. but now that's Russia's problem not ours :d

impressive result by our wrestler Mohamed Ibrahim on Oleg Karavaev tournament as he defeated 2-time world champion and Asian games champion Ryu Hansu 12-0 in the final of men's -67 kg, last year he won world u23 gold medal , so i'm really excited to see him in the next WCH

Krasnoyarsk to Host 2022 World C’Ships

Bureau Adds Age and Term Restrictions

 

The United World Wrestling bureau passed a series of decisions yesterday during a meeting before the start of the 2019 Senior Wrestling World Championships at the Barys Arena in Nur-Sultan.

 

Topping the outcomes was the selection of Krasnoyarsk as host of the 2022 Senior Wrestling World Championships.

The Russian city is well known to wrestling fans as host city of the prestigious Ivan Yaryiguin Invitational held each January in memory of the two-time Olympic champion.

The 2022 championships will be Krasnoyarsk’s first time hosting the combined world championships and the first world championships since the Siberian city welcomed men’s freestyle in 1997.

 

The bureau also named several cities as hosts for the 2021 season, highlighted by Guatemala City (Pan-Am) and Katowice (Europe) each set to be senior-level hosts of the continental championships.

The Russian city of Ufa was also named the host of the Junior World Championships and Belgrade as host the U23 World Championships.

 

The full and updated calendar of events can be found at www.unitedworldwrestling.org/events.

 

In a move meant to better align with established Olympic norms Bureau members approved limiting the age of Bureau members to 75 years old and the term of president to two (2) six-year terms.

For consistency across the organization, the bureau also approved a limitation on the term of continental presidents, who may now serve no more than three terms of four years each.

Changes to the UWW constitution require the affirmation of the Congress which will take place in fall of 2020.

 

In addition to host city allocations and self-governance the bureau also approved the nominees for the 2020 Hall of Fame ceremony in Tokyo.

 

Saori YOSHIDA (JPN) a three-time Olympic champion, Olympic silver medalist and 13-time world champion was nominated to the Hall of Fame in the “Legend” category.

She will be joined by former teammate, Olympic champion and eight-time World Champion Hitomi OBARA SAKAMOTO (JPN) who looks to enter the Hall of Fame as a member of women’s wrestling.

 

The men’s freestyle nominations included twin brothers John PETERSON (USA) and Ben PETERSON (USA).

The Peterson’s each won Olympic gold, Olympic silver, world silver and world bronze.

 

In Greco-Roman, Gheorghe BERCEANU (ROU) - who won Olympic gold, Olympic silver and was a two-time world champion - was nominated alongside Olympic and world gold medalist Pertti UKKOLA (FIN).

 

Mr. MOLINA (CUB) was nominated as a referee and Yuri SHAKHMURADOV (RUS) as a coach.

 

Mr. Shakhmuradov was also added to the Women and Sport commission.

UWW suspended Abdulrashid Sadulaev for 4 months for wearing a T-shirt

 

kind of nothing since there is no competition for him in next couple of months and the suspension will end on January 2020.

 

but checking the UWW website, the date is listed as 21 January 2019 !! seriously ?! :facepalm:

:CAN trials results (ie who will represent Canada at Olympic qualifiers and Olympics if they qualify)

 

50 kg Jessie MacDonald
53 kg Samantha Stewart
57 kg Linda Morais
62 kg Michelle Fazzari
68 kg Danielle Lappage
76 kg Erica Wiebe

 

57 kg Ligrit Sadiku
65 kg Dillon Williams
74 kg Jasmit Phulka
86 kg Clayton Pye
97 kg Jordie Steen
125 kg Amar Dhesi

 

For women: 53 kg, surprise as Diana Weicker failed to qualify,she is a former world medalist 5/6 women have won world medals and 3/6 are former world or Olympic champions. Hoping at least 5 qualify, but I'd suspect only 3-4 will qualify

 

For men, complete different story. The two best men's wrestlers failed to qualify (Balfour, who is likely to retire due to an eye injury and Jarvis, who was completely dominated in his 125 kg matches in the final, surprising considering he has literally been Canada's rep. for years in that category. I honestly do not see any of the men qualifying for Tokyo.

    • Bologna is unfortunately is a team for the Conference League, not the Champions League   Juventus are plagued by injuries and are struggling. On top of that they have a terrible schedule in the CL. In their case qualifying for the play-offs would be a success in this season but I'm not sure how many points they will need to do that. Actually they chave 8 points.
