With the whole tournament being run on one day how many matches will a finalist have? And will this negatively impact some of the older wrestlers like Satiev or Taymazov

4 or 5 matches. Actually, older guys say its better for them to wrestle all the matches in one day because the next day they are really sore.

Saitiev did the same at Russian Nationals. He will not be surprised.

Thanks Big,
Has Russia officially announced their team yet?
