Mussulbes is outstanding

[Big]

Just watched his qualifier matches last night. He is smarter and overall better than the rest of the field. No wonder Russians are so nervous he is competing for Slovakia. Its amazing how well he is put together at 36 years old.

Or maybe heavyweight just sucks overall.

Why is Mussulbes wrestling for Slovakia instead of Russia? Does he already have enough money?

That is why at the Ulan-Ude tourney, Buryatia/Russia, there is a 50-kg class, and no HWT

That's because few people in that region weigh more than 74 kg!

i agree with quick, im not too impressed with any fighters in the hwt division right now

It was an international tourney!

Interestingly, US participation was adjusted to the "anomaly" of that region. 3 of the 4 US wrestlers were from the divisions under 74.
Fullhart, 84, must have had the appearance of a HWT for the local population.

I know akzent, I was joking.

BTW, the Henri Deglane tourney (in both GR & FS) doesn't have the 120 class but also the 55 class.
