For the past two years, they've met in the World Team Trials finals at 79kg. They've split the four matches, and each one was a blowout. They are seeded to meet in the finals on Sunday at the Olympic Trials qualifier in Fort Worth.
In 2018, Zahid took both matches in Rochester, allowing just a single point to make Final X. The next year, Ringer teched Valencia twice in Raleigh to clinch his spot in Final X.
So, how will this weekend go at Senior Nationals if they make it to the finals? Will the new weight of 86kg make a difference?
2018 Match 1: Zahid 7-0 Ringer
2018 Match 2: Zahid 5-1 Ringer
2019 Match 3: Ringer 12-1 Zahid
2019 Match 4: Ringer 12-2 Zahid
