Although it's probably best for the sport to be included in 2020, it's unfortunate that we have to drop a weight. I know people disagree, but I just don't think this is "equality." Are male/female wrestling participation numbers really representative of the 2:1 medal ratio now in place?

Does anyone have an idea as to the weights? I imagine there will be one less lighter weight. I can see them doing something like 57, 64, 74, 84, 96, 120. Hopefully I'm wrong, as the lighter guys are more fun to watch than the real big boys

They got rid of the real big boys, too......
