silverback 49 Report post Posted March 11, 2020 the only time the push out is not called is if you straight arm "push" them out. You just made my point. 1 GockeS reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually he made his point. You say pushing is not wrestling-in the FS rule set you do not get rewarded for ONLY pushing your opponent OOB “straight arm”. You do however get rewarded for the risk of attempting a takedown, grabbing your opponents leg and forcing them OOB as the only way to avoid giving up 2 points.

russelscout 1,573 Report post Posted March 11, 2020 10 hours ago, LJB said: you guys act like it is so easy to get pushed out because all you see is guys refusing to wrestle and just backing up out of bounds... if there is a penalty for going out of bounds, wrestlers will learn to circle which will open up offense for both the attacking and defending wrestlers... and that is not even mentioning the offense that isa available when someone is only looking to push straight forward... This is exactly it. Freestyle happens in the center of the mat. You dont see the wrestlers slowly take the action to the edge and there is a good reason for it.

silverback 49 Report post Posted March 11, 2020 No one is forcing you guys to watch folkstyle wrestling. We already have freestyle. If you like it so much, spend your time watching it and discussing it on the freestyle forums. It's great to have different styles to enjoy. 1 ironmonkey reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cooch1 147 Report post Posted March 11, 2020 I feel a hybrid rules system could possibly be designed to incorporate the best of both worlds resulting in more scoring and less inactivity. The trouble is with the purists and traditionalists who won't yield. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silverback 49 Report post Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) You already have what you want. It's called freestyle wrestling. Go and enjoy it. I don't understand why some of you want to force others to conform to what you like. This is America. You have a choice.
