Crotalus 201 Report post Posted July 13 (edited) Is everyone sleeping in? I had to go to USA wrestling's twitter to find this morning's results. J'den has teched his first two opponents (Kazakhstan, Algeria) 11-0 each to make the semis. Downy lost 11-5 to Punia (India). Snyder wins his first match (Turkey) 13-2. Gave up a takedown. Burroughs wins his first match (Hungary) 10-0 then wins 6-4 against Slovakia. Close match. He had a takedown, two pushouts, shot clock point, and a failed challenge point but gives up a takedown and two pushouts.

spladle08 422 Report post Posted July 13 I hope Downey gets a win here. 0-2 doesnt do much for the ole confidence when youre already getting hate from the DT fans. A win has to spark that "ok I can wrestle at this level"... guess we still have Pan Ams which a loss is devestating but a win verifies you've wrestled in the United states at some point in your life. :) Yeah he needs a win here 1 Housebuye reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He kept if far more competitive than any of JDen’s international opponents have so far. I don’t think it’s far off to say Bo is a top 5 at 92. 3 fadzaev2, cangemi and MDogg reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What results are there to make that claim, NCAA’s aside. Does he have a win over a current top 10 92’er? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There’s a difference between what they should be ranked (based on results) vs how good they might actually be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Housebuye 1,618 Report post Posted July 13 Jden got poked in the eye a bunch of times. He seemed to let it get to him though. He still killed AZE, but the eye pokes took him out of his game for a couple minutes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spladle08 422 Report post Posted July 13 J'den said something on his little flo-instagram clip like "This sets up well for me, it's like let em now that they don't have a chance at worlds, that's the idea right?" Glad that he has developed this "I'm the best and you're not" mentality. It's awesome. Today We see. Yainni-Gold Ringer-Gold Gwiz-Silver Tomorrow Jmiz-Gold Snyderman-Gold Downey (sorry)-DNP" Burroughs/Chamizo- Coinflip. (the 4point move that caused separation in the last match didn't sway me as much as it did everyone else who now says Burroughs has this great separation and has solved the puzzle...) Pretty excited! 1 Jon_Kozak reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's going to be a great weight to watch. Bo will seemingly go MMA after he fails to make the team. I wonder if DT has a whole 'nother cycle in him or if he turns to full time coaching and what not after Cox beats him. 1 cjc007 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes...his defense and scrambling has always been world class but now his offense is on a whole new level. Maybe it’s a mentality thing too, but he’s looking incredible. 1 spladle08 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AnklePicker 322 Report post Posted July 13 Looks like the Iranian teched Albarov pretty easily. I didn’t see much but he looked to put a frenetic pace on Albarov. Might be interesting final with Snyder. What happened to Bajrang at 65? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
