Jordan to host the World U20 Champions next month

it was supposed to be held in Poland but UWW had to change it for obvious reasons.

Which Sweden will not participate in due to safety concerns for Swedish citizens

World Junior Championships will start tomorrow in Jordan and I see both UKR and RUS/BLR (AIN) wrestlers in the brackets.

 

I see a UKR/BLR match in the first round of 125kg. ( that will be on Thursday) and even tomorrow it's possible to see couple matches if they progress from the 1st and 2nd rounds in other weights

 

the last time I checked shaking hands is mandatory in wrestling, not just with the wrestler, but with his coach too.

 

UWW once took the World U17 team title away from Iran because one of our kids was crying after losing the bronze medal match and forgot to shake hands with the opponent's coach. but yeah I saw so many times the losing wrestler was so upset and went to the other way and didn't shake hand with the coach and nobody cared. They are not always very strict about it.

we had a RUS/UKR match in 3rd round of 79kg and the Ukrainian guy (after being beaten very badly) didn't shake hands and went the other way along with his coach. apparently nobody cared and the guy is not disqualified. (yet)

 

looks like UWW simply ignored the rule they never really enforced before (just except when they had some other motivations :d)

lots of interesting matches in the first medal day. Iran finished the day with 2 golds and 1 silver. but USA is leading the team race with 15 more pts because they won 5 medals . (despite winning just 1 gold medal) 

but tomorrow :IRI will have 3 in the final and :USA has just one. which makes things more close for the last day. our 92kg and 125kg are expected to win the gold quite easily. that's most probably enough to win the team title. 

 

 

JPN and RUS won the remaining gold medals. really impressed with the Japanese kid , he won the gold last year at 61kg and now one weight down at 57kg. how is that even possible ? :d people usually gain weight each year at this young age but looks like it works the other way for him

 

and I have to say Russian wrestlers are back with their old dirty tricks. :thumbdown: 61kg semifinal was very ugly with the Russian pretending to be injured the whole time, that way he got something like 10 extra minutes to rest during the match, the refs realized he is a fraud only in the last minute 

 

and Ukrainians keep not shaking hands with whoever they don't want and luckily for them nobody cares :d

:ITA Aurora Russo won the gold medal in the women's -59kg class! :champion: :cheer:

 

she completed the double with the European title she won just a month ago in Tirana

 

on her route to the gold medal she won clearly very tough matches vs :RUS:BLR:USA, so it's not that she didn't face people from the usual women's wrestling powerhouses

 

maybe it's time we've found a truly promising wrestler who might have a quick and winning transition from junior to senior ranks :fingers:

Iran won the team title in freestyle with 4 gold, 2 silver and 1 bronze :champion:

 

and the first day of Greco was also too good to be true :d 4 out 5 in the final and 1 in the bronze medal match. but I know we had most of our best guys in the first group. the 2nd group (next 5 weights) won't be this good.

 

what a terrible day for Russia. not a single wrestler in the semifinal :yikes:  Russian wrestlers weren't good at all in this tournament, winning only 1 gold in men's freestyle. some people say that's because they were out of competition for a while. but that's not really correct. they had LOTS of international or national wrestling competitions to keep their guys in shape and motivated.

 

I wonder if this is a sign that they also won't perform good at the Worlds in Belgrade ? :question:

 

 and we still don't know if they can win the Olympic quota or not. and i assume we won't know that in time of the World Championship.

      Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything

      Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on

      The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.

      Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
