hey coach – poor decision or not, it was not the dominating performance we have come to expect from Korea. Were these two the best fighters in their weight categories in Korea? If so, that’s shocking.

I agree with you there bigbark. That KOR v POR was a bad decision. That head shot they gave Korea was a weak point that would be questionable in a colour belt tournament- it went right up and over the POR player.

Already saw Korean lose in his 1st match. In another match, the Korean looked weak vs Puerto Rico.

Great article Alex! I love the quote from the Korean team head coach Park. Lofty goals on his part I must say!
Good luck to our great athletes I think this strong team has a very good chance of bringing home some medals for sure.
Yes, I will put myself on the line and make some predictions a la Coach Park:
Men’s team 3 medals
Womens team 4 medals.
GO CANADA GO!
