Ivan Yarygin tournament will start in Russia tomorrow.

 

Olympic Champions Uguev and Sidakov won the gold. G. Rashidov lost the final to Mammedov. A. Magomedov also lost to someone called "Mekhtikhanov" and settled for bronze.

 

----------------

 

in another news, Brackets are out for the freestyle competition of Zagreb Open. not as good as the original entry list. some big names like G. Petriashvili, Ravi Kumar and J. Cox didn't travel to Croatia after all.

 

we have a very big team in Greco, I will get to that later but in freestyle Iran sent a small team of 6 wrestlers but they are all our #1 or #2. I think 2 or 3 of them should win the gold easily. but there are two matches I'm mostly interested to see. Emami vs Salkazanov (which will happen in the 2nd round) and a possible Azarpira/Snyder final at 97kg.

 

UWW is awarding some prize money for the first time but that's almost nothing, I think you can earn 10 times more by just one match in Russia PWL league.

I know it's almost impossible for non-Iranians to find the "correct" name of Iranian wrestlers, since UWW messes all names by adding father names. :wall: it's probably impossible to know which part is "his" name and which part should be dropped. but the 79kg guy is just Ali (the other part is his father's name) and 125kg is the opposite! his name is Amir Hossein (not just Amir)

 

for whatever reason UWW commentators enjoy to call him simply "Amir Zare" it's quite normal for people with a two-part name to use just one of them but Zare doesn't.

 

as for the competition, all 6 Iranians made it to the final and Iran finished with 4 golds and 2 silvers, but before getting too excited :d those results were expected because of the level of competition, Yazdani and Zare can beat these guys 100 out of 100 matches. this tournament was too easy for them.

Atri is still Atri, watching him is not good for people with heart issues. :wacko: I know he is a nice guy but I just hate watching him on the mat. Savadkouhi had some great wins over big names like Kadimagomedov, Sidakov and Burroughs recently but then his final was disappointing, winning only 2-1 by a caution. Azarpira lost to Snyder in the final, I wasn't expecting more, he is still far behind the best of the world in this weight, his 10-0 win over Tsakulov in World Cup couple months ago was a fluke IMO.

 

but Emami losing the final to Nolf was the biggest disappointment here, he dominated Salkazanov earlier and it looked finally he is becoming World Champion material but then nope, not yet. still he is our best chance at 74kg. we have great wrestlers at 65kg, 86kg, 97kg and 125kg. I think 57kg is already lost and we can't find a solid wrestler for Paris. which leaves 74kg as the only question mark. Emami lost only 2-2 to Kyle Dake in Belgrade which made lots of people think he can beat Dake next time but I still don't think so.

he dominated Salkazanov

Ouch...That´s not something I wanted to read in a Olympic qualifier year :p

 

Looking at results (I didn´t see anything from this tournament, but I will definitely look for some highlights later) I see he lost also in the repechage to Japan... Hopefully it is only start of the season shape style and is peaking for the later most important parts of the year, otherwise this has enormous disappointement and hard ice shower written all over our expectations

Yeah I know :d there is no clear formula to follow. this is just how we know these guys.

 

Iranian naming system is completely similar to yours, givenname + surname. that's it. but the problem is some names are consisted of more than just one part which confuses non-Iranian readers. there is no clear formula. some people use just one part, some use the whole thing. when it comes to the surname, 99% people only use the first part but there are lots of exceptions for example the current dictator who is in a mission to burn the country to the ground is known by the 2nd part of his surname)

 

UWW makes it worse and more confusing by adding the father name right after the givenname. (probably to avoid confusion when two wrestlers share exactly the same name)

yeah almost :d it should be Dadmarz and Mohsennejad (the 2nd part is just a suffix, not a separate word) but it's their own fault to write there names this way

 

about the competition, winning 4G, 4S and 5 B out of 18 wrestlers sounds good but only 1 or 2 wrestlers really satisfied me. except 4 more wrestlers (our biggest names) who didn't wrestle here and I think will wrestle in Egypt later this month, this is all we got. some performances here were really worrisome. it was part of our trial system this year and they had to be in a good shape, this is just beginning of the season excuse doesn't apply here.

 

I also wanted to write something about Oscar Pino. he is probably the 2nd best wrestler in the world in this weight, I have no idea why he didn't wrestle at 2021 and 2022 Worlds but from what I saw today he will be clear favorite for the gold in Belgrade, even in front of Kayaalp. he ate everybody alive here. from what I heard Mijain Lopez is preparing for the 2024 Olympics, it will be a shame if one of these 2 guys have to sit out. actually I'm surprised nobody tried to "buy" him yet. he is 99% guaranteed medal

    • 2028 Team Size Projection – Jan 2026 Update   Here’s an update to my 2028 Team Size Projection. While I touch upon major events changes may occur due to results in smaller events. Additionally, several sports released their qualification document so there may be cases where I have to update the projection. I will only include sports where there is an update.   Here is the link to the updated sheet.     Aquatics (Water Polo) The Men’s European Championships saw take gold. The victory moved Serbia up a few places between European nations. With that said, no one fell out of Olympic qualification with the likes of France and Romania still on the outside looking in. remains on the edge.   Athletics (Marathon) Both the Xiamen and Osaka marathons were held this month along with a few other smaller events. While there were a few changes in the rankings, in terms of Olympic projections gains an athlete in the men’s marathon at the expense of   Badminton Major tournaments include the Malaysia Open and India Open. New updates which affected projections include the women’s doubles where overtook . As Polina Buhrova is also scheduled to compete in the singles event, an additional spot has been open. Other changes in the women’s singles was loses one of their quotas. and benefit from those losses.   Indonesia’s loss on the women’s side is offset by gaining a second player in the men’s singles. This puts   on the outside.   Canoeing The qualification document for both Slalom and Sprint were released/updated. No significant changes were found in the Sprint update. Slalom had significant changes relative to 2024 where the initial quotas will be decided by rankings and kayak cross will now have significant quotas being allocated. After adjustment, the following nations lost a quota; Andorra, Chinese Taipei, Ireland, New Zealand, North Macedonia, Slovakia, and Sweden. The following nations gained a quota; Canada, China, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain, and Tunisia.   Cricket The Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier was held. No changes to the projection.   Equestrian (Dressage & Jumping) Various World Cup events were held. No changes to the projections were made.   Fencing We had two Grand Prix this month, one for epee and the other for sabre. In men’s epee, overtakes . On the women’s side, the United States moved into the top 4 in the team ranking, pushing Estonia down to fifth. This pushed out of Olympic qualification while takes the Americas quota. This caused a downstream effect on the individual side as Ukraine takes an individual quota and Canada relinquishes their quota, additionally, gained a quota while lost one.   In men’s sabre, now takes the Asian team quota pushing down to just an individual quota. No changes were found in women’s sabre.   Handball Four men’s continental championships were held this month. finished top in Africa while a couple of upsets were saw in South America and Asia where and won over and respectively. Despite their wins, they currently haven’t leapfrogged into being projected to qualify. We’ll see how they perform at the World Championships.   Europe saw finish fourth. This was enough to push it into Olympic qualification projection. They pushed out.   Rowing The qualification document was released. There was a change in boat allocation relative to 2024 and the continental qualifier was slightly different than what I projected. Additionally, I assumed coastal rowing would allow 2 men and 2 women to compete in its three events, but the max is 1 man and 1 woman. This has caused significant changes to the projections.   Overall, the United States lost four quotas. Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Lithuania, New Zealand, Norway, and Spain lost two quotas and Algeria, Argentina, Croatia, Cuba, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, Portugal, Tunisia lost one quota.   The following nations have gained two athletes; Japan, Morocco while the following nations gained one athlete; Angola, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Chinese Taipei, Cote d’Ivoire, Denmark, Estonia, Kuwait, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Philippines, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Togo, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu   Rugby Sevens Fixing a couple of mistakes. First on the men, actually has the Asian quota over and in the women as is essentially shutting down the program, I think it is only right to remove them until they decide to compete again. This means is also projected to qualify.   As for new updates, we saw the third tier SVNS compete, which brought no new updates and the Singapore SVNS. I also didn’t add the Dubai or Cape Town SVNS in my calculations. For both, while there was some shuffling no one ultimately fell out.   Shooting The Asian Shotgun Championships were held this month. A few top shooters were missing. The only change to the projection is is set to qualify in women’s trap, pushing out   Squash The Tournament of Champions was held this month. Additionally, the qualification document was released. There was some restriction as to how many nations can send two players and this sport will offer universality quotas.   The following nations lost an athlete quota; Colombia, France, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and New Zealand. The following nations gained an athlete quota; Canada, Pakistan, Spain (x2), Switzerland, Ukraine   Triathlon The qualification document was released. There are a few changes relative to 2024. Projection changes include: Losses to Hong Kong and Slovenia and gains for Austria and China.   Weightlifting The qualification document was released. One change to be made was the reallocation process for host nation quotas. Due to this, El Salvador Iraq, Palau, Sri Lanka, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu lost quotas while Australia, China, Dominican Republic, Iran, and Samoa (x2) gained quotas.   Wrestling The qualification document was released. There were some significant changes to the qualification process including using the world rankings and the final qualifier only consisting of non-qualified nations. The projection changes are as follows; losses to Belarus, Bulgaria, China, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Russia, South Korea, Sweden, and Turkey.   Belgium and Lithuania gained 2 quotas while American Samoa, Austria, Estonia, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Latvia, Madagascar, Spain, and Turkmenistan gained 1 quota.
    • Looks like we in the Philippines are in the same situation. No news yet on whether we’ll be able to watch the Games 
    • Cricket is any day in a better position than Baseball, Modern Pentathlon or Rowing 8s globally
    • http://i.imgur.com/gLJZbix.jpg   Honestly football is just on another level. For other sports, an expanded field or creating multiple host cities likely only works with baseball, cricket and maybe basketball, and only in very specific countries.
    • No streaming for the games in India. I contacted IOC they just sent me a list where the games will be shown live.    Last games we had the Olympic channel and YouTube showing the live coverage for regions with no media rights. This time sadly no such schedule.   So much about making the games accessible to all...
    • What revealed those files of Epstein !!!! thousands of scandals , horrible diguisting things mixing politic criminalities , robbery , scam , manipulation...etc    all those celebrities of shht that you love   
    • I wonder if instead of having flexibility around what sport to add there should be one or two team sports per game with an expanded field (of 16 or 32 or w/e) where the host gets to pick which which team sports (if any) has an expanded field.
    • Dunno if this is geoblocked, but this is from our weekly comedy show Saturday Night Live  
    • I don't buy that she's doing this just to start the race if she thinks she won't be competitive.  We'll probably know more after the training run and far be it from me to know how that's going to work with a torn ACL, but if she knows she can't do it, she'll give that spot to another skier
