Phuc won, but then for some reason withdrew from the fight against Marques, who suddenly wasn't DQ'ed anymore and even went on to kick Nikpai out  

 

That's just Wikipedia.

the Vietnamese guy actually got injured during the match and withdrew.

Well yeah, but I doubt someone would say "Hey let's pretend like Marques is DQ'ed, just for the fun of it"  

 

If Phuc had to withdraw due to injury, I'd expect Marques to still be DQ'ed because that has nothing to do with it

That was probably just a mistake

 

but if you want something funny, you have to check women's 73kg draw, they changed it totally ! apparently they were wrong about someone's ranking !

 

here is the original draw

SORN Seavmey  of Cambodia was seeded #20 but she is unseeded in the new draw, probably they got her wrong with her sister lol

Today was a sad day for Iran, our most entertaining athlete just ran out of gas and lost to Lee Dae-hoon in quarterfinal where he barely could stand on his feet ! Lee in the final probably against the Jordanian guy will be very interesting.

 

we have another athlete in semifinal today 74kg but as I said before he is not going to show up and defend his world title. thanks to the Egyptian Eissa for punching into his face and sending him to the hospital.

 

and Dalakliev secured Bulgaria's first ever world medal in this sport ! congrats to him and Bulgaria
