Some interesting matches for the 1st day of freestyle competition. 65kg will be very interesting with Aliyev, Khinchegashvili and Bekbulatov

 

97kg as well. with Baitsaev vs Conyevdo in 1st round. interesting to see Pavlo Oliinik representing Hungary ! Top half looks  not that hard for the Caucasus bear Ketoev

 

here is my prediction about the finals.

 

57; Uguev vs Edisherashvili

65; Aliyev vs Khinchegashvili

70; Kurbanaliev vs Gadzhiev

79, Shabanov vs Gadzhimagomedov

97, Ketoev vs Baitsaev

Conyedo is not as good as we thought...so, in this case I don't see the point in using guys like him instead of a young "native" wrestler like Iannattoni (who won the bronze medal in the junior Europeans last year in the same weight class...at least he would have made a useful experience towards the future competitions)...

our Cuban-born wrestler was literally destroyed by Baitsaev in less than 3 minutes...

OK, it looks that he was injured at one knee (he was even limping from the start of the bout), but it was clear that the Russian was just in another class...quicker, stronger and with better technique...

hopefully, Kudiiamagomedov should be a lot more competitive...

I think Conyedo is OK. losing 5-4 to Odikadze in his first serious international competition is not a bad result. even though he is no Chamizo.

 

speaking of Chamizo. he really impressed me by beating Tsabalov. not long ago he won a world medal at 57kg and now he is wrestling almost 20 kilograms up ! I would like to watch his matchup with Burroughs. life will be harder for Burroughs with this new weight-in system. while Chamizo has no problem in his new weight.

[phelps 7,678]

great job by Frank Chamizo, who literally destroyed both the Georgian guy and the Russian Tsabolov in the quarterfinals of the -74kg class, showing that he's perfectly fit also for this weight, the 3rd different one since 2015 (and not counting the -55kg in 2010, when he was still a kid wrestling for his native Cuba)...

now it's time to face the reigning European Champion in this class, Soner Demirtas from Turkey (actually, a Russian born guy), in the semis...

 

on the other hand, unlucky outcome for Shamiil Kudiiamagomedov, the other brand new face of the Italian team...after defeating quite easily Makoev (formerly RUS, now SVK), he wrestled very well against the "true" Russian Naifonov, but in the end he lost by just 1 single point (7-6, a very interesting bout)...

I hope that Naifonov can at least make the final, so to give Shamil the chance to try and get a Bronze in this first experience with our team...

yeah, maybe I was a bit harsh on Conyedo after watching his bout against Baitsaev...

moreover, as I wrote, yesterday he was heavily strapped on one knee and looked like he was limping even before the start of the bout...

meanwhile this morning he looked like another man against Odikadze...

we'll see in the next future if he's more like yesterday's of today's (obviously I hope he's better than what I saw yesterday)...

 

Chamizo is a continuous surprise...I didn't expect him to beat Tsabolov that way...

by the way, Tsabolov is the only Russian that hasn't got at least to the semifinals...today we have 5 of them in the 5 gold medal matches...and 4 out of 5 in the semis of tomorrow's weights...
