yeah, they're very good in the men's lower weights...

 

meanwhile, there's an interesting round #2 match-up in the men's -75kg, with Luigi Busà facing Ali Asiabari...let's see if this time he can overcome his personal late Iranian curse...

 

and yes, he did it...finally, Busà could win a fight against an Iranian guy (and what a win...he destroyed him by superiority, 8-0)...

and actually, today he destroyed all of his opponents (another hammer win by 7-0 against Nishimura in the pool final included)...

but now things become more serious...as in the gold medal match we're going to look at the 2018 world final's revenge between him and Bahman Askari (also from iran, of course...what else? )

2nd day wasn't that good. but still we have several athletes in medal matches. almost all of them for bronze

 

only in kumite events by my count we will have 9 for bronze and 2 for gold. we have at least one athlete in medal round in every single men's kumite class. but only Askari and Fadakar made it to the final.
