how many weight classes in nonOlympic international competitions?

I sure think 6 weight classes is too few. It is tough for a RBY as, while he may not have made the team yet, he sure had all odds against him as he was too big for
the lower weight and 10 pounds too small for the other weight class. There are sure a lot of weight differences between the different weight groups. I do realize that Olympic wrestling was almost cut years ago, but it hopefully is safe now and it also has a strong women's program .I assume there are other international competitions after the Olympics. I sure hope our wrestlers from the NLWC do well in the Olympics. Thank you.

Because of the weird Covid Olympic delay, there will be a world championships this fall with the usual 10 weight classes (57, 61, 65, 70, 74, 79, 86, 92, 97, & 125Kg). RBY has said that he will compete in trials at 61Kg.
