[Abtin]

Someone please sum up for me what happened today, with iranians, the corruption, referee shit show, and mongolians stripping. Please. Did the mongolian start fooling around AFTER the match end and whistle?

There are always gaps between
1 How a nation sees itself
2 How a nation THINKS other countries see them
3 How other countries actually think of that country

2 and 3 may be reversed in some pessimistic countries but most keep this order.
Iran in particular has a very large gap between 2 and 3.
Iran thinks of herself as an honorable and classy people well respected by "true sportsmen" around the world, always getting screwed but never screwing others, holding up the highest ideal of true sportsmanship.
They also think this opinion is shared by all except the worst of her enemies like Arabs, Koreans, Americans etc.

But that is not how the rest of the world sees Iran.

[Nader25]

probably the gold would have been the first one ever in their olympics history, thus understandable their unusuall excitement, they finally got one silver and one bronze.

RIO DE JANEIRO (August 21) – Referee commission chairman Antonio SILVESTRI (GER) has announced the suspension of referees following suspicious officiating during the 65kg quarterfinal match between Franklin GOMEZ (PUR) and Ikhtiyor MAVRUZOV (UZB).

Temo KAZARASHVILLI (GEO), Tong-Kun CHUNG (KOR) and Sergei NOVAKOSKIY (RUS) have been removed from refereeing responsibilities pending investigation and face further sanction. They are also not on the field of play for the night's final session.

The match and all circumstances surrounding the match are also under full investigation by the United World Wrestling Ethical Commission with a full report will to be issued at the conclusion of the examination.

We know this will do nothing overall. The consequences are not big enough or such actions cannot be deterred with such low consequqences

Does anyone have the video of the medal ceremony from the gold medal we won in wrestling?

Austria invested $20 millions & 4 years in a few sports and only got a bronze. It's very competitive out there.

Lessons to be learnt in wrestling from this Olympics:

1. Dominate and win clearly (easier said than done at world class level)
2. In general youth seems to have won over experience so consider promoting our younger wrestlers and give them greater exposure on the international stage. Sending your strongest team to win World Cups that don't matter (in terms of ranking or qualification) is all well and good but all you get is kudos.
2. Don't rely on the referee
3. Don't rely on the jury
4. Expect to be at least one point down if you face an opponent from Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan or Russia (fill in the blanks if I've missed anyone)
5. Expect to face your countrymen who've traded in their country for financial gain

Feel free to add to the list if I've missed anything!

PS. BusiG is correct about the Mongolian. He was fucking stupid. All he had to do was put his head down and stand his ground. He could have pulled his pants down and ran around naked flashing at everybody for all I cared ... BUT ... only after the end of the fight!
