The first male final of today’s category opposed Amartuvshin Dashdavaa (MGL) and Orkhan Safarov (AZE). At the half of the fight, Dashdavaa was leading with only one shido given to Safarov. Then a shido was also given to Dashdavaa. Dashdavaa was again penalized just before Safarov scored a waza-ari with an action-reaction movement (tani-otoshi).
Ashley MCKENZIE (GBR), bronze medallist of the Havana Grand Prix this year, and Kherlen GANBOLD (MGL), bronze medallist on the occasion of the last two Grand Prix met for the first bronze medal fight. After two minutes both fighters were penalized with a shido. Not able to respect the limits of the fighting area, MCKENZIE was penalized a second time with shido, just before GANBOLD launched a quick and aerial uchimata for a clear ippon, giving him his third bronze medal in a row on the occasion of a World Judo Tour event.
The second bronze medal fight opposed Francisco GARRIGOS (ESP) and Ilgar MUSHKIYEV (AZE) and was won by Ilgar MUSHKIYEV with a single shido.
