MHSN 2,031 Posted January 28 #2 Share Posted January 28 UWW made some minor changes in the rules, I think only wrestling fans will understand some of these changes.https://uww.org/article/uww-changes-rules-promote-active-wrestling-balance-brackets but they made a change i was hoping for several years! from now on we will have the same number of wrestlers in two sides of the draw. (until now the bottom half was often harder with more wrestlers) but from 2022 they will follow a new format something like Boxing and Taekwondo. also there will be 8 seeded wrestlers in Worlds and Olympics. 4 seeded wrestlers in continental events. mrv86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phelps 2,853 Posted February 28 #5 Share Posted February 28 it looks that Italy are going to buy a few more 7th tier Russians... in Istanbul, Danila Semerikov (Greco-Roman, 130kg) and Shamil Omarov (men's Freestyle, -61kg) competed under the Italian Flag (even if I think it's only because they wrestle for some Italian clubs, at least for now...not sure they can wrestle at the global champs for us yet)...
