Hopefully they're in two separate brackets and one less top guy will be at the world qualifier. Yazdanicherati and Bekbulatov are on opposite sides at the Asian qualifier, meaning they've both got a seemingly open path to top 2 and qualification. That should reduce to 3 or 4 the list of strongest threats JO will face at the world qualifier. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's gonna be a battle If I need to know anything about wrestling or sports, I ask Frank Rizzo because he knows more than me. It was mentioned elsewhere but Bekbulatov of Uzbekistan got pinned this morning after being up 8-0 and didnt qualify in Asia. So add his name to this list. For me, Gadzhiev, Bekbulatov, Skriabin, Kiliksallyan are the ones who can beat JO straight up (although I'd favor the US trials version of him against any of them). The others on this list would need mental slip ups on JO's part to beat him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shiraz123 655 Report post Posted Sunday at 01:42 PM I'd favour Oliver over any of them except Bekbulatov. He'd need to kind of gas Bekbulatov out and I don't think he's that kind of wrestler. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He’ll gas himself before he gassed anyone with the possible exception of Musukaev. 1 spladle08 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2td3nf 546 Report post Posted Sunday at 06:37 PM I thought JO might be one of the oldest guys at the qualifier but after a quick search it turns out that there are several right around his age and a few even older than JO (if I got these dates right): JO - 31 in May Bekbulatov - 31 Kinchegashvili - turns 30 next week Gadzhiev - 33 Scriabin - 32 in May Dubov - 33 Mukhtarov - 25 in May Habat - 29 Bucar - 34 Killcsallayan - 27 Shuptar - 30 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
