Just saw the bronze medal fight. I have to say, that I didn't get the rules at all. Two athletes standing there, bullying a little bit around and suddenly one was too passive and gets punished?!?

That's too difficult for me 

 

Its Greco-Roman wrestling ... I hope they remove it from the Olympics.

Lőrincz-Kudla match was the shame of wrestling.

No comment...

assuming we speak about AZE I´m not very surprised but I thought that they do not need to naturalize athletes in wrestling or it is a special case or something ?

Not at all! Both wrestlers representing AZE today are actually iranian wrestlers (Saman Tamasebi and Sabah Shariati ). The azeri coach is also iranian.

I'm so sad for Estonia... Yes, they have one bronze, but they also have 4th place in women's team epee, 4th and 5th place in men's discus (remember how Kupper lost the medal...) and now Nabi again just misses out
