JoshMartini007 2,214 Posted March 15 #47 Share Posted March 15 6 hours ago, MHSN said: well. you can't be luckier than this Abbasi guy he even lost a round to Nepal. but managed to win some close matches and in the SF, he lost the 1st round and was trailing in the 2nd round too but then he landed a big big kick and the HKG guy probably didn't notice the count, therefore didn't say " I'm ready" to the ref and lost by RSC. I know some people here think this refugee idea is cool and nice but it's not. this guy Abbasi was representing Afghanistan until few months ago (I mean even years after the fall of Kabul, it's not like he fled the country when the savages of Taliban arrived) Afghanistan can send only 2 athletes here (like everybody else) they have two much better athletes in 58kg and +80kg. so this guy probably thought OK I can apply to be in "King Tommy team" and found a shortcut to the Olympics. if anybody with a refugee status can participate, then each country should be allowed to send so many as they want. I mean if you can't make the national team , you can always easily make the refugee team. you don't have to be a real refugee. King Tommy accepts everybody. The refugee team should have the same restrictions as the other nations, two men and two women attempting to qualify overall (I'm okay with them competing in the continent they are currently living in). The European qualifier had three men and two women while the Asian qualifier has four men competing. Adding the restriction would at least decrease the chance of someone trying to use this as a loophole to compete at the Olympics.

She'll probably be the flagbearer at the opening ceremony This Brazilian Twitter account - one of the best covering Olympic Sports remembered that actually a Saudi girl got a ranking quota on Judo for Tokyo. But Abutaleb was the first one to qualify through an OQT MHSN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be very funny if a bunch of American runners, swimmers and gymnasts fled to Canada and requested asylum after failing to make the US Olympic team.
