Again, I really dont care what their total is, since it doesnt count. But I'm trying to understand where the discrepancy is. Which one of Uguev, Sadulaev, or Kurbanov, who all earned 5th, is not Russian?

Flo didn't have the 10th place at 74. That's their 2 missing points for you guys. But I think 117 is correct for Russia: 74 & 79kg = 2x25 = 50 61kg = 20 65kg = 15 57, 97, 125kg = 3x10 = 30 92kg = 2 Total = 117 Anyway, they obviously don't count and Iran is the deserved silver of course. I was just trying to make a list of top overall team performances. Iran is the only nation to go over 100 in both men's disciplines. Very solid in the big picture.

According to Flo: Iran: One 1st = 25 Two 2nd = 40 One 3rd = 15 One 5th = 10 Three 8ths = 18 Total: 108 Russia: Two 1sts = 50 One 2nd = 20 One 3rd = 15 Three 5ths = 30 One 10th = 2 Total: 117 Where are the errors?

Top team performances at Worlds: Japan women 195 US men freestyle 148 US women 135 Azerbaijan Greco 120 (Russia men freestyle) 117 Iran men freestyle 108 Iran Greco 102

Whoever updates Aleksanyan's wiki page thinks it's over already.

He seems to have a couple of boa constrictors.

How do you know he didn't weigh in? I still don't understand?? Help us get the picture with facts instead of eyeball conjecture? How can this possibly happen that one person is exempt from the process but only you are hearing about it?? I'm not a blind fanboy like some people might tend to be. I'm open to facts if there are witnesses confirming he wasn't at weigh-ins or that Serbians weighed in separately. This is an Indiana message board and Micic was an Indiana kid. We'd love to know the real circumstances if there's something there?

They are strictly qualification tournaments for those that haven't qualified already.

Stevan Micic is a World Champion! Even though he'd already dropped the '21 Olympic champ and the '22 World Champ, the Japanese, Higuchi, that he faced in the final is the consensus most talented 57kg athlete in the world. He hasn't been able to stay consistently down at the weight since taking silver at the Olympics in 2016. He won World gold last year up at 61kg. But not this year. Micic takes out a murderers' row and wins gold!!!

57 played out a lot like 97: Olympic champ vs. World champ wrestling for Bronze. Honestly, I wonder how much Uguev or Abakarov will invest in their match. Both have bigger fish to fry and they know they can win that True 5th match much more easily. They may just tussle the first period and loggy-gag through the rest to be sure there's energy left for that extra match.

Yes, for sure!! Let's go back to 16 guys on one half and 8 on the other. Throw the names in a hat and pull them out. Add in the best-of-3 ball grab system for extra surprises and start handing out some chance Olympic berths to Singapore and Kenya. AHHHH..the good old days! In all seriousness, I do remember with some fondness how exciting it made the draw reveals. Crazy times...it's hard to believe we had all those factors before.

@Irani or @The Genius or someone else..can you remind me how your qualification system works? I read about it on the old boards, but I don't remember.

Agreed. On the bottom half of 65, it was, in my opinion, #5 Aliev over #6 Ochir, then #8 Tevanyan upset Aliev and #12 Rivera floated in from a very weak quarter to upset Tevanyan and land in the final.

You have to make drastic changes to training, but it's always possible to greatly improve aerobic capacity if that's your weakness.
