time to get our first gold. hamid sourian...

[teammelli91]

^ I sure hope so man. I can't wait!

[Shogun_Rua]

Hamid Sourian should get to the Semi Final with no problem but there he should meet a tough wrestler from Japan who has beaten him twice, once this year in the Olympic Qualification.

[Adesor Vafaseya]

Sourian is a gun,
once he is done,
he would have won,
with a Gold Medal on.

I am confused.... come again!

[Shogun_Rua]

I am confused.... come again!

When I look at his brackets, he should get to the Semi Final without much problems but in the Semi Final he will probably face one of the other favourites to win Gold and a guy who has beaten him twice.

Yep but BBC is only showing 1 of 3 mats, although he did mention Sourian just now, saying he is expected to win his match. I hope they show his match.
