For real. He used to be the gatekeeper (kinda), but he got taken apart. 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.

Trumble is really having his way with Moore right now...

Father time and being a father of five...that's a lot of (and more meaningful) demand on your time and energy than a wrestling practice, no matter who you are.

this is true, he was on toothpicks when he wrestled dake for the spot in 2021

I would bet a lot of money that he has an injury of some sort that makes blast doubles a thing of the past.

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.

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.

That's horribly classless if they did...

Wow...um...I hate to ask this question...did we just see the last of the best wrestler since John Smith?

So, is the JB nolf match happening right now and peacock is just playing greco and WFS instead?

He needs to get on that San Marino team. If he does that he'd definitely medal at worlds. Edit: You're 100% correct. He's world class, but that's pretty tough when there are multiple guys at 74, 79 and 86 who are even more world class...

Are we going to have to sit through these challenge matches one at a time?

He really is...he's so good, he's just absolutely the wrong frame to find success at olympic weights.

Well, they have at least one spot locked up

Is their logic behind this or are we just adding bells and whistles because they came included in the lego set?

Dude is a G, but the US is also positively anemic at Greco. It's so brutal. Greco seems to have declined to the same magnitude that Freestyle has improved since the mid 00's

I'd lean Spencer...but he's always one bad hip turn away from ripping something. It's kind of amazing to see that his default single leg defense is so full of positions that place lateral and/or twisting pressure on his knees.

I'll take "things that I don't miss" for $800 Alex

Man...this is kinda tough to watch...Fix hasn't progressed in a long time...I hope he gets some new technicians in his corner, I feel like he has the exact same toolset he had 10 years ago.

Agreed, stingy and directed

Slick post Hi-C from Gilman, hitting an elementary school move on a 4x NCAA finalist.

Match is close, but Gilman is pushing Fix around pretty handily in the meaningful exchanges
