Okay it will roughly start at around 6:30 and each wrestler will wrestle every aobut 20-30 mins (maybe more) until he reaches the finals....If a wrestler loses...then he has a chance at Repechage, ONLY if the guy he lost to makes the Finals...if his opponent(the one he lost to) doesnt make the finals then its over......All of this will end withing 6-7 hrs after the 1st match has begun....With the the exception of Mohammadi, these 3 fighters have been the most successfull in previous tournaments...for ex. Ebrahimi recently won Silver at the WORLD Championships (but it doesnt mean jack shit)....only gives you a little hope...but these guys have a lot of pressure on there hands, and hopefully they can bring a happy ending to all this misery

Ps: Yazdani, Masoumi have to beat 4 wrestlers to make the final (which gurantees them a medal)...Ebrahimi on the other hand only has to beat 3 to make the finals

Yazdani will face the winner of Mongolia-Azerbayjan in his second match of course if he wins the first. Afterwards he will face the Russian guy who is the world champ in his third match if they both advance. Therefore he will have to face the russian guy before the gold medal match.

I swear man Im just tired of having to lose to Cuba and Russia.....I would love to see Yazdani pin the Russian World Champ in the 1st round...it would make my day/week/month

great, thanx guys...thats what i needed to know



COME ON LIONS OF IRAN.....SHOW THE WORLD WHO WE ARE!!!!!!!

WTF is up with this, The theme of our wrestling olympics has been lose to the Russian.
Lets kick some Russian ASS!

[b_tonymontana]

Saeid ebrahimi ( Lets call him Ebi) 96 kg will face the winner of Kyrgyzstan-Georgia in his second match. Thanks god and khodaro shokr the Russian guy (Gorbe siahe iraniaha) is in the other side of the pool. Therfore, if they both advance they will meet in the gold medal match. Actually he has a very good pool. The turkish and russian guys are in the other side.

his strongest opponents are the cuban and american guy who will face each other in the first game. He has good chances to get something tonight. It all depends how much he wants that hardware. He has the easiest pool.

The US and Cuban guy in his side of pool are very beatable because they never won any championships whatsoever.

[b_tonymontana]

now for Fardin Masoumi's side (lets call him Feri ghashange) he will face the russian guy in his second match as usual (here we go again fcuk this shit). Now I have a really good news for you guys. The Russian guy is very young and he is 20 years old and the only thing he has is a third place finish in european and not worlds. So lets cross our fingers that feri ghashange with his huge experience will beat the russian and go for the glory we all are waiting for.

The strongest in this weight is the turkish guy and he is not in feri's side of pool. The US guy in his side is nothing and the only medal he has is a PANAM gold( which means nothing).

oh I forgot a point the uzbek guy Arthur Taymazov ( has gold and slver in 2004 and 2000 olympics) is not in his side of pool. A very good chance they will face each other for gold. Lets do it baby.

[RistonBarreto]

I'm going to predict 2 medals tonight...For the next olympics, I would like to see Iran produce a decent medal contender in something other than Wrestling or the occasional Judo/Taekwondo/Weightlifter.
