Let’s gooooo! Helen got it done in short time 3-2. Dang tough opponent. Helen moved her all over the mat but couldn’t score.

He may have a biting sense of humor, but Nelson is one of the best tweeters.
Probably has hug deprivation living in NK.
With under 10 seconds, Helen goes for one of those late match inside trip attempts and executes it perfectly for the win. What a technician!
And seeing Sarah in her corner reminds me how much I miss watching her in these world events.

That was then. You would think that by now, Terry has gotten used to coming in as an also ran.
But am I wrong? She is undoubtedly great with multiple Olympic and world medals. She seems to have plateaued though. Have you seen improvements over the past 5 years?
Also, it’s completely fine to say these exact same things about Spencer but not Kennedy?

If only she could hug a west bound plane.
Congratulations Helen! Anyone else notice that she's also pretty nice looking!
If you slow the video you can see her whisper in each recipients ear. I read lips and dabble in Korean. "please, can you help smuggle me to an embassy before I get on a plane back to my hell hole of a country?"
I’m sure the athletes’ families are being “lovingly looked after” by the dear leader until they get home to avoid just that.
I think literally all you have to do is send someone to Continentals at that weight; just participate in Continentals and you can send someone to Worlds. It's why you see brackets of differing size at Worlds
Yeah for the most part as long as countries compete in the continental tournament, they can send someone to worlds. Sometimes they don't even have to go to continentals. So, continentals/worlds are essentially "open" tournaments allowing 1 representative per country.
It's unique in that sometimes you'll see non-traditional wrestling countries send athletes to worlds who look like they're first-year wrestlers. This match from 2024 U23 Worlds - Aoyagi (this year's 70kg world champ) against a wrestler from Hong Kong is a perfect example of a "first-year" wrestler competing at a world championships.
70 kg Qualif. - Yoshinosuke Aoyagi, Japan vs Tsz Heung, Hong Kong

Anytime you click on a video that ends up being behind a paywall, it feels like you’ve been Rick-rolled. Can’t decide which is worse: being Rick-rolled or being Flo-rolled?Yeah for the most part as long as countries compete in the continental tournament, they can send someone to worlds.

I’ve been to North Korea. It was a business venture intended to help young children get much needed antibiotics. That a sports organization would support such an evil government by allowing participation by North Koreans is a stain that will never be washed away. Nuff said because this is a wrestling forum, but, having seen North Korea up close, …. I just had to say …….
With all due respect, if you don't pay for a flo subscription you shouldn't be surprised when you can't watch matches on flo lol
