Omg this really made me sad

[Keano]

My goodness, this outfit is so embarrassing, the color combination, the fit, the quality, the tailoring etc. Ughhhh I already feel embarrassed for both of the ceremonies. These people in charge in Iran cannot do anything right. Even their Olympics website name is wrong "Olympic.ir" it should be "Olympics.ir" or at least "Olympicgames.ir" good for nothing...

[Narse]

WOW entire russian team banned from olympics!!

huge jump in chances for wrestlers!

this is not clear yet and there is no other source confirming that. also, it says there are individual exceptions on the same source.

honestly russia does have alot of doping, alot, and they have been doing it since the former USSR times, not now, but i guess now IOC want to ban them to teach the rest a lesson not to do doping

[_Navid_]

Russia will participate in the games unless individual federations want to ban them. Makes the games more exciting.

Sorry to say but he was badly injured in training doing jumping excersises and with his knee i dont see why this kind of training was necseseray prio to olympics

[Narse]

this guy never learns. never, never, never! can he be replaced still with another iranian?

[Irannn]

Reports just say Yazdani is not 100%. which was expected, it doesn't mean he can't go to Rio, he won 2013 World title with an injured knee, so don't give up hope on him already, even a semi-injured Yazdani is better than any other guy Iran can send.

this will be probably his last tournament, let's hope he can make a miracle.
