Why do you guys think that our athletes do so much better in world cup than Olympics? When you look at the results of our wrestling for example, we've been kicking ass for the past couple of years but flopped this year at the olympics. Same goes out for Taekwondo

in last year world championshp we won 3 medals in Greco-Roman, one of them in non-Olympic weight which doesn't count. so we won two medals in 2015 World Championship and exactly the same number at the Olympics. no change
in freestyle we won 4 medals but 3 in Olympic weights (Rahimi silver, Mohammadi Bronze, Karimi Bronze) we already matched that number, even better with a gold medal.
but if you World Cup, this is a very low level competition, only few countries took it serious, we usually won the World Cup against B/C team of Russia.
Taekwondo on other hand is another story. they really kicked ass in last year World Championship, I don't know what happened to them.
