of course I know him very well, he used to wrestle in Iranian league as well. I would rank him 7 or 8 behind those top 4, Ketoev (ARM), Odikadze (GEO) and whoever Ukraine sends.

 

this is a tough weight with so many Russian wrestlers wrestling for other countries , beside Saritov, we have Gazyumov (AZE), Musaev (KGZ), Ibragimov (UZB), another bragimov (KAZ) and Ketoev (ARM), they are all from Russia !!!! with these 6 and Boltukaev we will have 7 Russian wrestlers in the competition ! :d

 

if you ask me he has a chance for medal, specially with this random draw but he is small for this weight, I don't give him chance for the gold but a medal is possible for him with a good draw.

 

Thank you very much, man! :)

If the lights light up exactly at the correct moment, he was definitely first, since his light went on first. Not sure if those lights are 100% accurate though?

albert saritov (romania) WCH bronze medalist

It's saying Taha Akgul might still be injured? That's a pretty big deal if he indeed is injured, since he is apparently the big favourite in 125..

I never bought it, most probably just a poor translation. cheating is a part of their culture, they will never be sorry of that.

 

Ramonov is one of the favorites at 65kg, but this is probably the most unpredictable weights in freestyle with so many favorites. if I had to pick someone it would be between Ramonov and Chamizo but both of them can be beaten by other wrestlers. also we have to wait to see if UWW allows Gadzhiev (POL) to compete or not, they took his quota because of using meldonium but didn't ban him !!!! his case is active in CAS now. he will be as good as Ramonov as Chamizo.

 

That will be a huge huge surprise if Sadulaev doesn't win the gold, he is just too good ! after him I give more chances to Boltukaev for the gold, he is a monster. Ramonov is probably their 3rd chance, I also give good chance to Gedeuv, he is damn good but the problem is he has to beat Burroughs , the second best freestyle wrestler in the world right now. they had a close match in Las Vegas but I expect Burroughs to be more prepared this time.

just a few words to add: I read that interview in Russian and Lebedev definitely said that he wouldn't compete for Olympic team. I think, it is decision of coaches who as I supposed didn't like the protest of Dagestan origin wrestlers at the latest national championship. I don't think Lebedev is the best for Russia in his category so, this a chance for his rivals (including our guy). Regarding Boltukaev, I agree with MHSN-he is very good!

I've seen some videos of Boltukaev and, man, he is impressive! He's a goddamn beast, don't know how could anyone beat him

yes he's real good but olympic is the different situation , many of these kind of wrestlers eliminated in first stage

 

but yes he has a real good chance to win gold. he's counter wrestler and balanced in defence and attack

Bulgarian junior national team coach will replace freestyle wrestler Lyuben Iliev at next month's Rio Olympics after the 27-year-old went missing.

"He (Iliev) just sank out of sight, we can't reach him," Bulgarian freestyle wrestling team coach Valentin Raychev told local media on Tuesday. "We'll rely on (junior team coach) Dimitar Kumchev at the Olympics."

Raychev described Iliev -- originally scheduled to compete in the 125-kg category in Rio -- as "emotionally unstable" and said the wrestler went missing on July 4 when the national team returned to Bulgaria following a training camp in Russia.

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
