He seemed reborn in these two repechage matches. Abraham Conyedo Ruano in the 97 kg category took the bronze medal by first overcoming the Canadian Jordan Steen 4-2, then, with great determination in the final for 3rd place, the Turkish Suleyman Karadenz 6-2 after being at a disadvantage (0-2) for the first part of the competition.

Concentrated and confident in his fighting qualities, Conyedo regained the self-confidence he seemed to have lost only yesterday when he beat Romanian Albert Saritov 6-1 in the round of 16 and was beaten 6-0 in the quarters by American Kyle Frederick Snyder. Water under the bridge, the Italian left no one any chance today and took a well-deserved bronze. (photo Bisi GMT Sport).
