Clean sweep for our Greco team this year at the worlds. The U23’s finished 1st in the event. Freestyle starts tomorrow.

Haven't all the Russians been absorbed by European countries and Bahrain?

They are very deep in talent. While they have a lot of guys wrestling for other countries, they are still very deep in talent.

My general response was more to the fact that Russia as a team would still be dominant if they weren’t suspended in the last few years and certainly would have challenged us and the US’s stronghold in freestyle. However they would not have been able to challenge our dominance in Greco.

Obviously this is my humble opinion only.

Hope next year King Ghasem will put that brat zahid in his place

good point, thats why medals have spread over several countries.

[Nokhodi]

Greco probably, but no with freestyle.

Good showing by the team Melli. Dominate performance. Not to take anything away from this team, but how much of this is result of Russian team suspension? Do you guys think we would still be performing at this level had Russia been in the tournament ?

Greco probably, but no with freestyle.

I don’t think we repeat such performance anytime soon! We probably will win it all again but not with 15 medals in both categories…

Mohmedi robbed
overall final medal tally is a thing of beauty!

[Iran_19]

Esmaili best the young Jafarov 2-1 in final! Tough fight
keshtkar wins bronze.

Mohmedi can not win gold! 3 final and lost all3!
he loses 4-3 to Serbian guy which managed to beat him in Albania 5-0!

[Iran_19]

Esmaili is probably the most dominant GR wrestler in world right now!
his fights can be a training video for any wrestler
Amazing

Saravi wins gold!
So far:
Mirzazadeh - Gold
Faroukhi - Gold
Saravi - Gold
Ahmadi - Silver
Sohrabi - Bronze
Mohmedi - Minimum silver
Esmaili - Minimum silver (favorite for gold)

That is pure dominance, plain and simple. Have we ever had a GR showing like this before? Have we ever won both FS + GR titles in the same competition?

[PEJ]

Yeah indeed a domination.. specially in GR..

btw,How are our U23.U20 and U17?
i heard we didn’t do that great in youth level…

We are good. Won both U17 and U20 this year. U23 is next month. Our Greco program as a whole is elite.

[Iran_19]

Both Mohmedi and esmaili to final

keshtkar will fight for bronze, lost 5-3 to Korean

[TM4LIFE]

Esmaili to the finals with very very impressive 10-0
