Dark Energy Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 (edited) Zahid in on double. Hoisted over. Given 4. Challenge. I didn’t see any stop and change in direction. But challenge won. So Zahid down 4-2. Zahid aggressor. 2 step outs. 4-4. Hunting low ankles. Stuck under. Ukrainian hoists and given two for an exposure. Hmmm. Very close. No challenge. Zahid TD. 6-6 but UKR has criteria. 10 sec left in 1st. 2nd - ref gives point to Z for hands to face. Chair doesn’t agree. 6-6. Zahid hunting. UKR does fire. Nada. Chair very vocal. Looks like UKR warmed for passivity. Z trapped under. UKR blocking off. Does fire. Z turned on chest wrap. 6-8. 25 sec to go. 1 to Zahid, no. Not given. Zahid loses He has not separated from world pack. Edited February 26, 2023 by Dark Energy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LJB Posted February 26, 2023 Author Share Posted February 26, 2023 so... this is the most of the women's style wrestling i have watched in a minute... i have to be real honest... i have not felt especially hopeful about what i have seen from our guys that i have watched today... after this quad, i am not so sure we will be duplicating anywhere near the kind of results we have grown used to recently...

Bulldog Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Three questions: 1. Why was Nate Jackson so mad at his quarter round ref? Dude must have really pi$$ed him off as that isn't something I have seen out of him. 2. What was the Gerogian saying to the ref bout his tricep in the bronze match with Desanto? Tell him to stop grabbing my tricep so hard? 3. At the end of the bronze match, what was up with Desanto's eyeballs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zahid loses He has not separated from world pack. when i saw it, i would have scored it 4 ukr and 2 usa just like they did however, i can't believe they let ukr RUN the entire second period and NO 30 second clock he did one counter and shot once at 35 seconds left... that was it, backward and running he didn't come close to holding center now zahid could have done a bit more actual attacks but... The match that makes people cringe at freestyle scoring has to be finesilvers he lifts the guy, hanging on his back, im yelling just drop on top of him backwards!!! he does a cartwheel and gets two then does the exact same move and gets four talk about inconsistency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crotalus Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 3. At the end of the bronze match, what was up with Desanto's eyeballs? The guy was gouging his eyeballs during the pin. Very surprised Desanto did not retaliate in any way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crotalus Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 when i saw it, i would have scored it 4 ukr and 2 usa just like they didI'm a bit confused on the scoring of that. The ref originally called 4 blue 2 red. Which indicates she was giving Zahid credit for feet to back and then 2 to Ukr for exposure. After the challenge, they switched it to 4 red 2 blue. If they are giving Ukr credit for a 4 pt feet to back chest wrap (which I think was the right call, there was a very slight hesitation and it was more of a lift than just rolling Zahid through on a continuation of the double), then what did Zahid get 2 points for? He didn't get a takedown, and it wasn't his exposure. If Zahid is given 2 for exposure, then it couldn't be a 4 pointer for Ukr, right? Should that not have been 4 red 0 blue, or 2 red 2 blue?

Crotalus Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 gouging is a super strong word for what happened...I'm basing it mostly off of Desanto's reaction, but just rewatched in slowmo. The dude was definitely digging in and it doesn't take a whole lot of finger in your eye to hurt like a motherf*$ker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should that not have been 4 red 0 blue, or 2 red 2 blue? i did not like 4-2 for that action at all... there would have had to have been two separate actions for a 4 red 2 blue which is not how i saw it at all... they did look at it for quite a while... and i have not been involved in any ref/rules discussion yet this year... there could be a new way of interpreting the action that they are pushing this year...

If his thumb is in his eyeball, it's a gouge whether malicious or not. But watch the video at 0.25x speed from 5:26-5:28 and tell me that's not intentional? (I know full well you will hold your position and not actually rewatch the clip, but posting for the benefit of others.) Adding a screenshot, but the video is more telling.
