Can't ignore that JB has owned him and Dake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILLINIWrestlingBlog Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 2 minutes ago, PortaJohn said: What wrestle87 posted is the correct take. People get passionate and see what they want to see based on who they want to win. Collar tie, push, & shove isn't going to get your opponent put on the clock How do you folks think you can take a shot when your opponent is constantly running backwards and to the side? I love seeing the fanatics, as I am one, and that makes it fun to argue. The Announcer said after the match that the mat judge was screaming for a caution and one, and that the other judge yelled to have the match stopped. Why would they do that? Because the mat ref let Nolf back-pedal, run to the side and hide for about two minutes. It was grievous and blatant. Burroughs needed to sit in a blind and hit Nolf with a shotgun like he was a quail. And for the record, I hate Burroughs for beating Poeta in the NCAA finals. I do believe in fairness, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, granted he may have been entirely laser focused on Cox then snyder, but that's a heck of a whooping for just a mental lapse. He has been more than gatekeeper, he has been the consistent #2 pretty much every year, even in college. And since junior year he has run into beasts like Nickal, covid, Cox, Snyder. That's a heckuva mountain to climb. 1 i am an idiot on the internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are not being fair if you are implying that Burroughs was working for the takedown and the only thing preventing it was Nolf running backward. The only thing Burroughs was working for was the pushout. He was straight armed on Nolf's collar bone for much of the third period. He never tried to penetrate, he only tried to push.

ILLINIWrestlingBlog Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 5 minutes ago, SocraTease said: Nolf won and was the better wrestler today. Active; strategic; took all of the shots, and could have easily gotten the two on the spin around on the edge, which they denied on the review. Borroughs did a whole lot of nothing. He's a legendary wrestler but his time is up. Maybe he will try 79KG for the non-Olympic weights in the fall, but I kind of doubt it. JB elevated American wrestling but at his back time's winged chariot has been hurrying near. No. This is a bad take I've now seen multiple times on this board. The ref blew the action dead. Then, Nolf jumped over. Let me stress this again: 1. REF BLOWS WHISTLE. 2. NOLF JUMPS OVER BURROUGHS. Yet, that same referee, after making those two awful calls that favored Nolf in the first period, then let Nolf run for two minutes in the second period even while the mat judge was calling for a Caution and One, and the other judge was calling for the match to be stopped. Very stinky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The caution came in about 25 seconds. Doesn't change the match. Nolf was the agressor throughout the match and until about 30 or so seconds he engaged with Burroughs who would do nothing more that collar tie and push. Go rewatch the match.

bnwtwg Posted April 20 Author Share Posted April 20 Heavyweight U owns Gwiz. But Parris is probably going to manhandle Zillmer. Styles make matchups.
