Interesting thing : in which weight will compete our star Daria Bilodid? There are no information , but I think , it would be 52, because she already have ranking points in this category

In my opinion, she too tall to stay in the 48kg, is parfect fit for 57kg not for 48kg/52kg

Does this mean cbp is done?

 

Like I said last week, it's gonna take a year at a time In my opinion, Deguchi will retire ... Here is an interview from 2020 (It's in French sorry), she says a hint that she is closer to retirement than doing another Olympiad.

Judo Canada can reduce the period. Except it's not to Deguchi's advantage to represent Japan. She has no less chance to go to the Olympics.

 

For weight change, Klimkait already announced that she doesn't want to change weight category to go to Olympics, she wants to stay in 57kg

 

And with the next WRL update, Deguchi will probably drop out of the top 10. Klimkait will stay #1 in 57kg.

 

Personally, I'm still not a fan of Nicola Gill's decision to bring Deguchi to represent Canada and compete directly with Klimkait. I know that many have criticized Judo Canada's choice of how to decide between Klimkait and Deguchi for Tokyo 2020

 

The rules were fair to everyone, and the choice of Klimkait is logical. Klimkait was the better of the two, in 2020-21. 

 

I can confirm that Gill is lying publicly, saying that his team did not force Jessica to move up to the 63kg category, this is bullshit...

essica lost the support of Judo Canada in 2017-18, with the loss of her SR1/2 status for Sport Canada cards... 
 

IMO ... the impact of Klimkait's bronze medal have more impact for next girls canadian's judoka  vs any Deguchi's medal ( incluse any olympics gold medal...).  Klimkait is 100% Canadian unlike Deguchi's nothing canadian.

I agree with you. I don't like the Deguchi fans, who think that Judo Canada had a preference for Klimkait, but is not case, the selection policy based on best result frim 2021 World Championships is only fair solution ...
 

If look at the results from 2019/2020/2021

Klimkait was on the podium in 13 of 15 competitions (3 podium in master)


Duguichi was on the podium in 8 of 11 competitions (0 podium in master)


Both had similar result ..

I would like to give my opinion on this message from the world championship:

 

On 6/9/2021 at 4:58 AM, phelps said:

it might not be so easy...

 

I mean, certain athletes have the body structure that helps them to change weight class without too many problems, but others are just built into a single class...

 

looking at her, Deguchi surely can't even think to go up to 63kg...and I don't think she could either go down at 52kg...

 

on the other hand, also Klimkait is a bit too short to risk the 63kg swap (where she might be a lot less effective), if she doesn't have any issue with the current weight...

 

not to mention the mental struggle and consequences a weight class change can have on some people, especially among the women...

 

it's a very delicate question, especially in Countries where the individuals always have the last word...

 

Jessica have the perfect height for 63kg, the Canadian federation had even suggested Klimkait to go to 63kg in 2017-2018 but she doesn't want to go 63kg.

 

 

Christa Deguchi is the same height as Catherine Beauchemin-Pinard. CBP moved up a category in late 2017, she was in 57kg before

 

Christa Deguchi is older, and has said she feels "old" ... so moving up to 63kg can "extend" her career until Paris 2024

No, they say that we will have 3 good girls in two divisions for the 2022 world championship, And Klimkait will have the momentum for the next year on Deguchi on H2H fight.

I’ve read that he will appeal the decision, although he is proudly claiming that the decision of boycotting the Olympic fight against Israel is his decision and based of his values and such, age 30 I doubt that if he stays with this ban he will ever compete again

    • On March 11th-17th we will have the 4 qualifying tournaments:  (Tournament A, Wuhan)  (Tournament B, San Juan)  (Tournament C, Istanbul)  (Tournament D, Lyon-Villeurbanne)  
    • It's anyone's game in Sanremo, with at least 4-5 singers who could win. In recent days, Sal Da Vinci has gained ground, as has rookie Sayf. Brancale is in sharp decline and may not even make it to the final.
    • Teams already qualified :  (Host), , , , 
    • So tonight Super Saturday with  ,  ,  ,  ,  and  all choosing their entries.   Will be watching Pesma za Euroviziju and San Remo and probably fall asleep when final selection comes. 
    • By the way, the girl who hugs him in the video is 16 yo Eleni Iakovaki, daughter of Periklis Iakovakis (2006 European champion in 400 hurdles and 2003 World bronze medalist). She won the women's 400 event today with a massive PB of 53.95 (U20NR and U18NR) and seems to be rapidly improving. Her previous PB was 55.09 from last year (outdoors).   We also had 16 yo Apostolia Antonatou finish second today in the women's 60m with 7.33, which is also a new U20NR and U18NR. A few weeks ago she got 7.38 to equal Katerina Thanou's U20NR but now she beat her and she's only 16.
    • This is absolute insanity,and i love it,thank you for the instant information.
    • He tried for 6.31 but had two fouls and didn't go for a third attempt.
    • I don't know where the correct place to post this news is, but the Alexandri sisters announced yesterday they will leave  and start competing for  again    Our aquatics federation and Olympic committee were in talks with them for a while apparently, and they say they want to end their careers where they started and represent Greece in Los Angeles.   For those that don't know, they left Greece in 2012 for Austria at the age of 15 because they were cut from our national teams. It was their only way to continue in the sport despite not having any prior connections to Austria. They competed in Rio, Tokyo, and Paris where they placed 4th in the duet (our Greek duet finished 6th). They won many World and European medals for Austria and improved year after year and unexpectedly ended up surpassing all of the Greek girls that were previously seen as more promising by our federation and originally replaced them in our national teams. The girls thanked Austria for the support and opportunities and Austria also seems very supportive of their decision to go back to Greece.
