Havana, May 30 (RHC)-- The World Wrestling Union (UWW) has updated the rankings in the 30 divisions of the Olympic styles, after the 2022 continental championships were held.

The rankings reflect the scores accumulated by gladiators in a group of UWW-established leagues, many of which our own do not usually attend due to known financial constraints.

However, in the May 25 update, four men remain among the top 10 in their categories, namely the grequistas Luis Orta, Mijaín López and Yosvanys Peña, and the librista Reineris Salas.

Orta, Olympic champion in the 60 kg in Tokyo 2020, is ranked third with 51 thousand points. The tetramonarch of the major division, López, from Pinar del Río, is also fourth with 51,000 points.

Peña's good position (10th) is due to his Pan American crowns in 2020 and 2022, and his tenth place in Tokyo 2020. He currently has 25,300 points.        

In the case of the bookstore owner Salas (7th), the third place achieved in Tokyo 2020 weighs a lot, the greatest contribution to his 34,200 units.

The world ranking serves as an unquestionable reference in this sport, especially among athletes who compete permanently. Stars such as the Cubans do not find there a true evaluation of their quality, since they only attend the essential competitions.

This ranking will serve for the classification to the world competition in Belgrade next September, and will also help to define the seedings in each weight of that fight.  

Our best exponents in this sport are preparing for Belgrade 2022, the highlight of the season.
