LJB 2,093 Report post Posted August 1, 2021 6 minutes ago, GoNotQuietly said: I’m sure you saw the same scoring opportunities as I did. I won’t critique the wrestlers technique, but we have this match strategy of just outfighting and praying to be rewarded for it, when other countries are striving for takedowns. It’s like what middle school coaches think Iowa style is, but for Greco.

Voice_of_the_Quakers 127 Report post Posted August 1, 2021 Dumb challenge by CHN makes the score 6-3 for Rotter Fokken. Now she needs two scores or one big score in a match not likely to see either. With the button pushing, not sure if the wrestler can decline the challenge. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Voice_of_the_Quakers 127 Report post Posted August 1, 2021 Smart matches by both JPN and GER on the other side of Gray's bracket. Assuming Gray makes the final, she will need to wrestle mistake free, for a change. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

denger 339 Report post Posted August 1, 2021 25 minutes ago, GoNotQuietly said: He scored with a bunch of different nice stuff though. Wasn’t like he couldn’t get to the Russians body Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk yes. The wrestler from the country formerly known as Russia scored more. The Egyptian had a plan to prevent that, and it failed. From my very limited perspective on current Greco rules, it's is a stingy, defensive game, sometimes highlighted by heroic athleticism. That's not what we saw. Instead, it was the guy pushing the pace who managed to put up the points. LJB will forever spite me, but I'd rather watch women's free than matches like that one. 1 Ogalthorpe Haywood reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
