Wrestleknownothing 439 Report post Posted January 6 The article says it is at a cost of ~$16k. Given that there are three people in his entourage, it seems likely that this is the cost of their collective stay (room, board, transportation, etc) rather than a payment to Punia himself. Of course, if they are using the word cost differently than we do, then perhaps not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shiraz123 668 Report post Posted January 6 Indian Olympic committee has a lot invested in him. His own personal foreign coach, training abroad and stuff. Lot of pressure to win a medal in the Olympics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
