I think that goes back quite a while though and a few of them are poule bouts, but yeah will definitely be an interesting match up if they meet in Tokyo
I noticed editing before the bout began Foconi actually looked really nervous, and was wondering why as it's not characteristic of him - I guess he really was hella nervous and knew his odds weren't good against Mepstead!
Hold up, FIVE? The last time I've seen it's still two. Anyway, at that season, Mepstead actually won against Foconi in the 2019 Euro champs at Dusseldorf in the pool (well since Foconi won that champs, it must be in the pool)
GOOD LORD IT'S REALLY FIVE. Here's FIE's head to head record of Foconi vs Mepstead * 2019 World Championships Budapest, Mepstead won 15-9 * 2019 European Championships, Mepstead won 5-2 * 2013 CIP, Mepstead won 5-3 * 2011 Löwe von Bonn, Mepstead won 4-3 * 2006 Junior comps (I don't know the comps), Mepstead won 15-9 again I assume the low scoring ones are from pool bouts
@@OlympicFoil I simply cannot wait for Mepstead to bring home a golden medallion in the olympics in the coming months, it’s been 60 odd years since our last.
Interestingly Mepstead has a 100% record against Foconi after 5 meetings
100% After FIVE?! 😱 Holy shit that's incredible. I would badly want to see a Mepstead-Foconi draw in Tokyo now for the high stakes drama
