BRACKETS OUT FOR 85/130 TOMORROW, updated in first post

toughhhh draw for akhlaghi, will likely face ex-iranian now-azerbaijani saman tahmasebi in round 2
perhaps even tougher draw for bashir, if gets through first round will likely face german popp or kazakh tinaleyev, only to have to face turk riza kayaalp

have to be honest, not expecting much tomorrow

Let's not get offended he chose Azerbaijan. Biggest reason Iranians do that is not because of money but because he wouldn't have been able to go to olymoucs 4 years ago or world champions 3-4-5 years ago unless he switched his nationality because we had guys better than him, including Taleb Nematpour.

Reason Azrbaijan Greco Roman has gotten so good is that 2012 Iran's assistant coach was hired by Azerbaijan.
In addition, I was in the hotel when Iran's Greco team met with Azerbaijans al the wrestlers were chill with tahmasebi and the ex assistant coach

Also, when I spoke to a freestyle Iranian wrestler and asked him what they think of those who represent different nationalities for Iran, they say they don't care and understand them.

The nationality thing offends me when an Iranian is a good athlete and he chooses to go somewhere else. But if he's second choice for Iran and can't work there, I really don't care if they go elsewhere. They spent their whole life training and know nothing else. Might as well try to compete in tournaments with a different country

saman went to azerbijan is few reason, money is one, also iran dont have enough support, such as facilities and etc, and also the olympic award is more as well, and they get treated better , not like iran.In iran you only get treated well if you win, look what they said about leyla rajabi, they call her bi gheyrat.
