nhs67 Posted April 21, 2023 Author Share Posted April 21, 2023 TMS declined her spot and will not compete this year. @Mike Parrish, you think there is any chance we see some of the 76 KG ladies head down for WTT? If so, who? Makoyed looks huge, so I doubt her at the very least. "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let them fight. 68 KG is also an Olympic weight, though. You telling me if Welker, Guilford, Blades, or Bell gets handed 3 convincing losses none if them are going to take their shot at Molinari rather than run the gauntlet at 76 KG again? Edit: I know 8 KG is just over 17.5lbs. Edited April 22, 2023 by nhs67 "I know actually nothing.

Anyone at any other weight (65 or 72 or even 62) have a real shot at FM? She is tough as nails, but I don't know about her chances to medal at 68 KG. "I know actually nothing.

nhs67 Posted April 22, 2023 Author Share Posted April 22, 2023 To be clear, I think she handles Grote (again). I am just curious if anyone will be competitive with her "I know actually nothing.

She is tough as nails, but I don't know about her chances to medal at 68 KG. Forrest is overrated. If Amit drops, which I doubt, she'll crush Forrest. Watch Glaude or Piearcey. I don't see Grote dropping and I don't see any chance even if she does. Technique is not her strong suit.

nhs67 Posted April 22, 2023 Author Share Posted April 22, 2023 Also, @Jon_Kozak, it appears Hidlay has changed his registration back to 86 KG. "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nhs67 Posted April 23, 2023 Author Share Posted April 23, 2023 Anybody care to offer their predictions? Perhaps a top 3, with champion choice? Like 86 KG. Top 3 are Valencia, Hall, and Brooks with the champion being Valencia. 1 "I know actually nothing.
