Silver World medalist, Ukraine’s Chobotar (-84 kg) will play his first Premier League final against Japan’s Araga, 8 wins so far, winner of Poorshab and Aktas. In the heavyweight division, Yamanoglu created the sensation by eliminating the running World champion Jonathan Horne in ½ final (but by decision). In women’s, we are already enjoying the -61 kg final between China’s Yin, the world N°1, and Egypt’s Lotfy, the 2014 and 2016 World champion. All the results of this 2nd day of the K1 Rabat.
