UWW website has the name of all registered wrestlers , there are some interesting changes comparing to what we had/expected

 

57kg:

Yang Kyong-il instead of Jong for PRK !!! Yang was retired as far as I knew but apparently he is back !

Kazakhstan also registered a new name Nurislam SANAYEV instead of Sanaa. but after a bit of research apparently he is the same person just with a new name ! lol after all he is originally from Russia

USA is sending Daniel Dennis who won their trials over Ramos, Haji Aliyev is also there as expected

 

65kg

only Iran and Turkey are changing their wrestlers, we already knew that, Mustafa Kaya in place of Yakup Gor and Meisam Nassiri instead of our injured gold medal hope Ahmad Mohammadi

 

74kg

no change at all but India has to change Yadav because of doping.

oops, I forgot we changed our wrestler here, Yazdani junior in place of Ghasemi.

 

86kg

the only change is Sharifov in place of Khatiyev but we already knew that !

 

97kg

Iran, Russia and Ukraine are sending new wrestlers but again we knew that

 

125kg

no change, the only question was about Ukraine, and they decided to send Zaseyev over Khotsianovski, both of those guys won the quota if you remember !

 

59kg:

wow ! Korea is sending a new name Lee Jung-baik ! what happened to that Kim guy who threw everybody at the worlds qualifiers ?!!!

Russia is also sending Maryanyan and not Labazanov despite all news we heard. Mingiyan Semenov (but with his twin brother's name) won the quota for Russia

 

66kg

only Russia had a change here, Albiev instead of Surkov, we knew that

 

75kg

no change

 

85kg

Chakvetadze instead of Mishin as expected but Egypt also registered a new name apparently, even though I'm not sure . Arabic names are confusing sometimes.

 

98kg

interestingly Belarus registered two names here, Hrabovik and Dzienichenka !

and Hungary also registered the veteran Balasz Kiss instead of Varga who won the quota.

 

130kg

few expected changes, Brazil is using their naturalized Armenian guy instead of poor Jaoude. Iran and Russia made a change here, Semenov and Babajanzadeh.

I didn't know they were allowed to do that at the Olympics..it's like a reserve so that they can still choose who'll actually fight?

Nothing, wrestling world ranking is a joke, someone just sits and determines this ranking , there is no criteria about it.

 

there will be no seeding in wrestling only 2015 world finalists will be separated and will have a bye in 1st round. they wll use blind draw for the rest.

well I didn't know too, maybe their main guy is already injured and they registered another one in case.
