I would have saved it for 2017 IWF championship in Anaheim, CA.
Finally Sun Yongie is entered for an IWF comp.
She weighed 133 in April (Nationals) and now 118 here, wonder what’s up with that..?
Are there details on EGY? There were only two positives announced in January, but the sum indicates 7 cases.
62 & 69 categories are gonna be tight. Cant wait to watch
Liu Weijian vs CJ Cummings 🙂
I was waiting for it for a while
In relation to the 62 class, epic fail 😉
The chinese guy finished after the first attempt.
That entry-list meade me wrong :))))
Extremely excited for 69
Liu Weijian coming back!!
Does anyone know why PRK is not present at this Junior Worlds?
Usually North Koreans aren’t allowed to enter Japan (Olympics seem to be an exception).
Women 63 kg winning total is about the same as 90 Kg as I predicted. What a waste of resource. I going back to 75 and 75+ even in Olympics.
