Le duke Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Did I see Nolf get pushed out twice with no calls in addition to no calls when not engaging in the second period? Huh? It was a good match by Nolf but a head-scratcher on some no-calls.His foot wasn’t completely over the line. If you slow down or rewind your feed, pretty clear.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh? It was a good match by Nolf but a head-scratcher on some no-calls. If JB had taken a single shot...they would have given it to him. Refs won't pull the trigger on helping when collar tie hand grab push is your offense. Burroughs didn't take any shots in that second period either (that I can remember...I was a bit on the edge of my seat watching that match.) Edit: I forgot they also gave JB some breaks on those two challenges. Not saying those were the wrong calls, but they have to be called consistently, and based on what they did for JB in the first period, I think they did the right thing by nolf in the 2nd.

It was so strange, especially in the last minute or so. All Burroughs tried to do was push Nolf out, presumably to get it to trailing by two, and then going for two. Just bad strategy from a grizzled vet. Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le duke Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Lol, nice, but allow me to completely change tacks in one thread. Taylor would have to rock through 2028 for him to be in the same conversation as JB. Only person in that ballpark right now is snyder.If DT wins in Paris, he’ll have five Olympic weight Golds, same as JB. But he’ll also have two Olympic golds.

Go back 4+ years; he hasn't had a blast double at 74 kg in a long time. Just doesn't have the explosiveness when he has to cut weight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Sure but in the first period Burroughs got hit with passivity for not holding center well. In the second Nolf did not get hit for passivity and he ran and avoided the edge for 2 minutes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy , if he wins this summer he’s a 2x Olympic gold , 3x world champ, one world silver in 6 trips ,all while beating an all timer top 3ish guy in the world in the finals every year and absolutely crushed everyone else he’s wrestled in that time period ,home and abroad, he’s absolutely in the conversation because he might be the best wrestler in the world right now at any weight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnklePicker Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Sad to see JB go out on a poorly officiated match. Can’t blame Nolf. He did what they let him and wrestled s great match. JB is still right there with these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know about that one. Nolf is certainly world class but so are the guys up at 86. I believe Brooks and Valencia are capable of medaling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
