Egypt and Tunisia will win the most quotas followed by Algeria . Even South Africa can have a couple. Keep an eye on the American Samoa wrestlers just in case some suprise happens, not likely, but it's round robin followed by semis . Since it's Greco Roman of course it's not that likely still would be nice to watch them wrestle tomorrow in around 9 hours from now. P. S : Olympic Quota for Namibia in 60kg and Morocco in 77kg possible . Benolympique 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will write something about it there but I think Egypt, Tunisia and Algeria will collect everything. Morocco also has a chance for 77kg. no chance for the rest.

Dragon 1,781 Posted April 2, 2021 #153 Share Posted April 2, 2021 FORT WORTH, Texas – J’den Cox (Colorado Springs, Colo./Titan Mercury WC/USOPTC) will not compete at the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Wrestling on Friday. Cox did not make weight. Under the rules of the event, Cox has been removed from the bracket at 97 kg in men’s freestyle, where he was entered pending weigh in. He had earned a spot in the semifinals, based upon winning a 2019 World medal in a non-Olympic weight class (92 kg). The bracket for that weight class has been adjusted. Cox was a 2016 Olympic bronze medalist and 2017 World bronze medalist at 86 kg, then won consecutive World titles in 2018 and 2019 at 92 kg. He was a three-time NCAA champion at Missouri, and hails from Columbia, Mo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHSN 3,417 Posted April 9, 2021 #155 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I know this is way too early but after the Greco competition in Asia, we know the name of 14 qualified countries in each Greco-Roman weight. we still don't know who is going to Bulgaria, some countries may use a different wrestler but this is the list of "better wrestlers/countries" without quota. there will be seeding, I will list two seeded wrestlers I think European wrestlers will win most of the quotas, probably 9 or 10. maybe even all 12 ! 60: seeds) Gharibyan and Angelov ( and are next in line in case Bulgaria uses a different wrestler) I believe it will be only between European wrestlers, only slim chance for and to make a difference there is no clear favorite left, but I think have a better chance + those 2 non-European wrestlers are next. 67: seeds) Bakhshilloev and Ashu (, and are next if UZB uses another wrestler) again no clear favorite but they are lots of good guys, are better here, I can name 10 other countries with decent wrestlers but I'm going to stop here. this weight will be crowded in Bulgaria 77: seeds) Liakh and Rivas ( and are next) Kim and Nemes (both former world champions) are the biggest name not qualified yet and they can easily fall in the same part of the draw. have good wrestlers left, I can add few more names too. for example 87: seeds) Sunil and Avendano ( and are next) some big names are still left without quota, the biggest name is ! I don't know who they are going to send to Bulgaria but I assume that will be Chakvetadze defending Olympic Champion. Basar is a two time World Champion plus former world medalists like Shahinyan and Nouri, even though I believe Iran will send a different wrestler, (too early though, Nouri just lost today) after these guys I can add to the list too. 97: seeds) Kakhelashvili and Omarov (next is ) another European competition, I believe only in this weight the top seed is indeed the best remaining wrestler. are probably the best after him. maybe from Asia too. 130: seeds) Perez and Coon (next is ) this is a week weight in general, the level was low even in Europe. I think all notable wrestlers are already qualified but are a bit better than the rest. even and Benolympique, Vic Liu and Laraja 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHSN 3,417 Posted April 10, 2021 #158 Share Posted April 10, 2021 if MGL wins the last female quota in the Asian QT, this is how women's wrestling quotas are distributed 6 5 4 3 2 1 I didn't count 2 PRK quotas and 1 SWE quota (disqualified for doping ) it's just 81, if I understand the rules correctly, those 2 PRK quotas will go to Ecuador and Moldova.
