After watching him in Paris I said to myself he just need to get back in form and do at least 4 more tournaments before the olympic games that is why I wish him and the Japan Judo federation reconsider and compete in the World championship. I think he needs to be in that tournament because he can get top seed and gain more rhythm. He can be top 6 if he does a good tournament (does not have to win just stay in the top 8).
