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.

76 is an Olympic weight.

Nobody goes down 8kg.

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.

They're too big.

I don't see any of the field at 76 running down to 68.

Not even Grote?

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.

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.

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.

Agreed on 86. 

92 - Moore, Jackson, Macch. Moore champion.

 

Last I checked Hidlay was dropped back down to 86 KG.

If Hidlay is at 92 KG I have Jackson out and Hidlay in w/ Moore still being the victor.

I have Moore no matter who else is there and I just like Macch. Nothing against Hidlay, I have him four behind the ones mentioned.
