Kiran - Boxing and Wrestling Thread

Recommended Posts

Men’s FS competition is drawing to a close , it has not just been a terrible world championships for us ( which was expected) but results in terms up qualification has not favoured us too. 
 

There could be a huge queue of top wrestlers trying to qualify from Asian qualifiers next year. 
 

The Asian qualifiers so far: 

 

57 Kg - only :JPN ( Rest of the 4 quotas were taken by European nations) 

 

65 Kg-  Only :IRI 

 

74 Kg- Again only :JPN ( 3 out of the  other 4 quotas were taken by Europeans & 1 by USA) 

 

86 Kg-  :IRI , :KAZ & :UZB ( 3 out of 5 quotas to asian countries)

This is the best weight in terms of results for Deepak Punia to get the quota in asian qualifiers. 


97 Kg - Only :BRN

 

125 Kg- Only :IRI ( 3 of the other 4 quotas were taken by Europeans and 1 by USA) 

 

In summary , it will be tough to even qualify wrestlers from the asian qualifiers with only 2 quotas available. One bad drawn & there wont be any chance through repechage.

Even the final & only world qualifiers will have just 3 quota places. Looking bleak for our wrestling team :(

 

Let’s hope in Women’s FS even if our girls don’t get quota other Asian countries do.
