Marcus Blaze is headed to the 61 kilogram U20 finals after a tidy tech fall in the semis early in the second period:
Yup. That would have been horrible to lose on a lost challenge when you were actually winning!
UWW officiating has been consistently strict in making that call at the end of matches. The U.S. wrestlers need to be careful. These aren't NCAA stalling rules. Earlier, I saw a wrestler lose a match with under three seconds to go in this exact scenario.
Exactly. And that's how it SHOULD be. This folkstyle BS of running for the last 30 secs is bad for the sport. Might as well call it basketball.
Agreed. Plus, they are being consistent…….kudos.
If we count the incoming guys, where would NLWC place?
it's like watching a penn state match....oh, wait.
I don't know how you can't like the end of the match, one guy is winning and the other losing and running away is not tolerated.
You get enough PSU guys on the national team and they start winning world titles like PSU wins NCAAs.
Ausgezeichnet Deutschenmusik!
That background music reminded me of the Eastern Block’s version of Itchy and Scratchy - worker and parasite
