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

    • That's great, congratulations to both of you! I wish her a good recovery. 
    • This is not a full retirement, but kind of a break/sabbatical due to...reasons.    For those who have been following @brunamoura's journey towards and last February eventually, finally, at the Olympics, this might be an interesting update. The 2030 Olympics are still in her sight, but next year's world championships in February seem...unlikely.   She still needs to do at least two surgeries, one on her nasal cavities due to a chronic inflammation that has been bothering her for years, and one on her legs. In the Olympic season she struggled immensely with pain in her legs, which in the freestyle technique made her sometimes just not even able to move and therefore finish or even start the races. The Olympic 10k freestyle was hard and painful, but she managed to get through it. We knew she was dealing with compartment syndrome, which is quite serious and certainly needs to be dealt with surgically, but the recovery time for that meant that doing so during the season would likely jeopardize the Olympics - again.   The plan was to do the surgeries this year, but that's unlikely to happen now...    
    • My admittedly tiny sample at least made it feel like the safest and nicest place     Milan....I was very glad to be out of there, Bologna almost felt even worse, and I was also happy to leave Trento behind after barely a day there   Livigno didn't feel bad like that, the issue there is that Livigno people seem to believe the world outside of Livigno doesn't really exist.   Every time I have been in South Tyrol though, it always just felt...lovely, cozy, nice, friendly, and so on.   But obviously that is all a matter of opinion. Besides that I mostly went on statistics and Alto Adige generally scoring very high in things like quality of life and low crime rates  
    • Very interesting Article, not a lot of vast shocks in it, but great that she's found some happiness. She switched allegiance to Ireland from the US quietly a few years back, but I'd say the odds on her acting on it are pretty long - still, it maybe feels like a little statement of emancipation to herself, in which case, good on her.
    • That Kazda´s first goal was also something else

    • Article about one of the shadiest stories in athletics history, the story of teen phenomenon Mary Cain and her relationship with Albert Salazar and the whole Nike setup.  Happy ending - like several other athletes who never quite made the transition from teen success to adult, Mary is now on the way to being a medical Doctor.     ‘Like cutting the head off a hydra’: how Mary Cain exposed Nike’s disgraced coaching team | Athletics | The Guardian
    • Had a very strange career. Absolutely looked like the Crown Prince when Bolt was King, but after Bolt retired his only medals were in relays, nothing at all solo.  Drug rumours did not help.
