- From 55kg to 100kg and 55 to 80+ there are 10 and 7 categories in men and women respectively at every 5kg gap.
- Moreover Right Arm and Left Arm are two separate categories meaning a total of 34 medal events.

-In Women's 60kg is the only nation participating with 7 arm wrestlers. All other events there are at least 1 arm wrestler from other country.
It was a remarkable turnaround but as the match went on she went on getting better and better.
She now becomes the first Taekwondo player to qualify from her country.
Yes I love both curling and wheelchair curling. The former is under pay wall so I'm not bothered to pay for it so I watch this. Exciting semi finals action though I'd have preferred it to have these semis and finals on weekends rather today.
I kinda agree it's as ridiculous as allowing Russia and Belarus to participate as AIN. Lots of loopholes. With no international tournaments played Russians can easily represent AIN as Belarus and qualify more.
I wondered who in Asia gave refuge to this guy. There are some who really need it and some exploiting it
Ali Abbasi lost 1st round and then was trailing 2-13 50s left and hit few kicks and punches but at 7-13 delivered an unbelievably strong kick and the mouthguard of Hong Kong athlete went out and the Afghani was given RSC victory
W 49kg :
with it's first ever female qualifier- Dunya Abutaleb in any Olympic sport (ignoring tripartites). She'll probably be the flagbearer at the opening ceremony
I felt that was the only questionable result of the morning session and to Little extent the QF involving the same athlete against the . Maybe @Griff88 could say if he agrees with the decision given against at 0-0 in final round in W49kg against the Philipino.
I have a doubt over women's 49kg R16. Do you think decision was fair in that where from 5-4 it was made 4-5. I thought block was good don't know how it was a penalty for holding
What a shitty commentator
Calling players Red and Blue
VIE taking on PHI. Match won by PHI I mean you don't know the countries name what a shame
And yeah he was all praise for Jaysunova in Men's 80kg
