Mijain Lopez the Teddy Riner of greco-roman wrestling :d

 

in term of strength yes, but he is a shame . last year he lost on purpose to Kayaalp. the same happend in 2011. guess why ? because Turks paid him well, he also lost once to Baroev (RUS), they paid him as well, he could have 3 more world titles.

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 :cry:

 

indeed...Have they still some chances to medal in the second week ? I mean in sailing or so, sports I´m not into much..

 

very sad for some countries so far. I really wish better second week for ECU, ALG, IND, SRB, IRL and EST :fingers:

Honestly if he comes from a poor family or something, I can't really blame him...the Olympics are what really count like in most sports I guess and that's three golds in a row :)

After tonight, I know watching Greco-Roman wrestling is not good for heart, back in London we had different set of rules. luck was a big factor in close matches, but now they changed the format which was very good in first place but with this they unleashed the monster , they gave a deadly weapon to the hands of their corrupt referees , they can give cautions whenever they want to whoever they want, it doesn't matter who is really active. they will caution whoever they want. there were so many controversial calls here, SO MANY. two of our wrestlers lost matches they should won only because they were "more" active. thanks to stupid UWW rules.

I wouldn't blame him that much if he was an ordinary wrestler but he is such a great wrestler, he should have more honor to lose like that on purpose. with those 3 wrestlers he could have been the best wrestler of all time

    • Italy will boycott the Azeri stage for protest against the international federation.
    • Likely for Tannheimer, quite unlikely for Galmace Paulin. She's far from being assured to even start in the WC before turning 20. Basically she'd have to get a spot this season, which could actually happen if she takes the extra-ticket at the JWCH. Anyway I don't see her making her way to gold in Oslo. Tänglander has a few seasons to do it, we'll see.       Quite surprisingly so, indeed. Barring her horrendous finish Richard would have made it 2 in one go. We should have some more names in the list in 2025.
    • There are some of Slovakia's finest young squads at the World Juniors in recent years
    • Alpine skiing also we have a lot of problems: the men's team is very weak and has been winning a few podiums a season for several years and the our best skier- Dominik Paris is 35. We still have a strong women's team but 3 of the 4 leaders are over 30 (Goggia, Brignone, Curtoni) and Bassino is 28. Another 2 years and we will have the same problem as the men's. There is basically no cross-country skiing without Pellegrino for many years, biathlon is based on 2 individuals with one of them has a 35 years. Vittozzi's injury was enough and we haven`t a single podium this season after 3 stages of the World Cup. As for 1 year to the home games the situation isn`t optimistic.
    • Hail to the Reds... Commanders. First time since 1991 Washington QB has thrown 5 TD passes in a game (which isn't all that improbable in the modern game alas Dan Snyder...)    
    • Italy is much better in alpine skiing, in The end all Nations have a Limited Talent Pool. Norway is far better than Sweden/Finland in Cross-Country skiing, alpine skiing and Biathlon, but Sweden/Finland are far better in ice Hockey.  Great Britain wins far more medals than Germany At Summer olympics, but GB is also inexistant in Winter Sports and Most popular Team Sports (Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Ich Hockey).  
    • Thanks, great stat! Tannheimer wont turn 20 until August 2025, so she has The whole Season To Join Kristiansen and Neuner. Too Bad that she was ill this week. I think Galmace Paulin and Tänglander could also do it. I think Grotian (born 2004) is The First female Biathlete born after 1999 To make a World Cup Podium. On The Mens side multiple Athletes (Perrot, Giacomel, Uldal) have already done it.   E. Öberg was 22 and a half when she First won.  Dahlmeier was 21 and a half.   Edit: Grotian only narrowly missed The Podium in The Individual at The 2024 World Championships when she was still  19 year old.
