    I think Rckaela is the better wrestler and with no Nigerian in this event it was seen as the best option to maximize their chances. Lucky for Mia, she also avoided Nigeria and now both get to compete at the Olympics

    For Mia the match against Ivorian wrestler was crucial which she was as close as it gets 4-4. For Rckaela the last minute take down was enough for quota.

    seeds belong to the wrestlers, not the country.

     

    only few wrestlers in each weight are going to both events but still they can change the seeding if they do good at the Asian Champs but most of them are weak and won't be able to do that. top countries send two different teams

    Right so basically a lucky draw or they may consider Asiad performances ?

    that was a very quick session, most of the matches finished in the first period

     

    quota matches in Greco-Roman

     

    60kg: :ALGvs:MAR and :COMvs:EGY

    87kg: :ALGvs:ANG and :EGYvs:TUN

    97kg: :ALGvs:TUN and :EGYvs:MAR

    130kg: round robin, :TUN and :MAR 99.99% qualified

    In 67 kg it's :SAM who is in SF

    - Moreover Right Arm and Left Arm are two separate categories meaning a total of 34 medal events.

     

    - Losing semifinalist get bronze medals

    well. you can't be luckier than this Abbasi guy

    he even lost a round to Nepal. but managed to win some close matches and in the SF, he lost the 1st round and was trailing in the 2nd round too but then he landed a big big kick and the HKG guy probably didn't notice the count, therefore didn't say " I'm ready" to the ref and lost by RSC.

     

    I know some people here think this refugee idea is cool and nice but it's not. this guy Abbasi was representing Afghanistan until few months ago (I mean even years after the fall of Kabul, it's not like he fled the country when the savages of Taliban arrived) 

    Afghanistan can send only 2 athletes here (like everybody else) they have two much better athletes in 58kg and +80kg. so this guy probably thought OK I can apply to be in "King Tommy team" and found a shortcut to the Olympics.

     

    if anybody with a refugee status can participate, then each country should be allowed to send so many as they want. I mean if you can't make the national team , you can always easily make the refugee team. you don't have to be a real refugee. King Tommy accepts everybody.

    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
