Dhesi does not appear to be one of the top 10 seeds in FS 125 kg. Unless I'm reading the info wrong, which is always possible. |

Brackets released this morning. Vs Deng (China) and if he wins, likely sees Gwiz (#1 seed) in the 2nd round.

Here's a quick bracket preview via Flo:
125 Kilograms
What should Nick Gwiazdowski expect in his second consecutive World Championship? He's secured the top seed, which should be very advantageous to his medal chances. For one, it ensures he is on the lighter side of the brackets, as pigtails start on the bottom and work their way up. A second reason is that two of the toughest wrestlers in the bracket, Geno Petriashvili of Georiga and Oleksandr Khotsianivskyi are the #2 and #3 seeds respectively, and can't hit Gwiazdowski until the finals.
Also working in Nick's favor is #1 ranked Taha Akgul getting drawn into the other half of the bracket. Akgul and Khotsianivskyi will wrestle in the round of 16. As 125 kg is a small bracket, it will be the first match for both of them.
Nick's first match will also be in the round of 16. He sees unranked Natsagsuren of Mongolia. Assuming a win, Gwiz's next opponent will be either #18 Deng of China or Amar Dhesi of Canada. Dhesi is unranked but recently took third at the 2018 NCAAs wrestling for Oregon State, and should be considered a favorite to beat Deng, setting Nick and Amar up in the quarterfinals.
Dhesi and Gwiz overlapped but never wrestled in college, however, in the 2016 NCAA Tournament, Dhesi placed seventh and Gwiz took second.
There are no other top 20 wrestlers on Gwiz and Dhesi's side of the bracket. On the other side, however, is the aforementioned #1 Akgul, #2 Petriashvili, and #3 Khotsianivskyii. There is also #4 Hadi of Iran, #6 Magomedov of Azerbaijan, #10 Khizriev of Russia, and #16 Baran of Poland. The winner of that meatgrinder very well might see #12 ranked Nick Gwiazdowski in the finals.

That is just plain strange. |

Deng, China took out Dhesi 4-1 in his first match. Now the waiting game to see if he wrestles again. He could be done.

Yup tough draw to lose to 2 medalists. Chalk it up as experience. Team USA is doing very well 3 and possibly 4 champions. I think most earned a medal sans Gilman
