D3 for LU Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 2 minutes ago, Interviewed_at_Weehawken said: So he is ranked based on points? Nothing to sneeze at, but wasn't Nate Jackson #1 in the world at some point using this metric? Just putting it up there, for what it's worth.

maligned Posted May 11 Author Share Posted May 11 8 minutes ago, Interviewed_at_Weehawken said: Two hours? lol Yeah, it's comical that they have the traditional bronze matches scheduled for 4:45 local time (in less than 2 hours). They won't be wrestling the 65kg round of 16 till around then and quarters will go way beyond that unless they bring in some additional mats.

Interviewed_at_Weehawken Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 I strongly suspect that Erik Thiele of Germany may be the son of Sven Thiele whom Angle defeated in 95 Worlds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China's usually been dangerous at 57 and 65, but don't always get elite wins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrestleknownothing Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 1 hour ago, jross said: Ref was biased? Stopped the lace prematurely. Didn't call passivity on red in 2nd period. Spencer held center and attacked. Red did nothing until the final 30s. Spencer was worn down. Wins by one. I am not sure I have ever seen a match with a second period passivity after 16 first period pointd.
