Woah Tsabalov wearing a Geno sized turtleneck with that choke job 

[Gantry 1,872]

Tsabolov and Russia both lose in the last second, wow

[spladle08 1,102]

Dake handled that pretty well. I think he's holding back a little. 

That dude is just tough and awkward to wrestle, he always gives my boy Chamizo a match.
Dake is looking solid

[D3 for LU 58]

It ain't over 'till it's over! ;-)

I figured Bizhoev would lose but then thought he was going to finish it out but nope.  

Was surprised Tsabolov was trailing then he took the lead with short time and I said to myself "the great ones get it done when it counts".... Then .... Nope .... Hahaha

 

2 great endings

Fix is scary 

scored 8 points like immediately. Takedown off a scramble then 3 turns. Followed by a clean takedown. Medal threat for sure

DATON FIX DESTROYER OF WORLDS!!!

[spladle08 1,102]

Yeah I really stand by my statement I preferred Ravinder to Lomtadze.... That was a Crushing

[bnwtwg 1,032]

The bracket gods have been kind and Fix has taken full advantage. Hitting on all cylinders today.

I'm a Fix homer but having Harutyunyan being your toughest match to reach the finals......

This was for sure a fortunate situation, and it could've been more difficult but it wasn't #LetsGo

[spladle08 1,102]

And do not get me wrong Harutyunyan is tough as nails but it's a winnable match.

[Gantry 1,872]

Good gravy DT, that guy has a family!!!

He’s a JR world bronze. I think Dayton may do this guy dirty too. 

[NJDan 1,070]

Taylor with bar and half. Not fair!

[bnwtwg 1,032]

Side bar: I live the Curology ads like the target demographic Saturday 3:30-6:30 AM is the male 12-18 demographic and not a bunch of old dudes enjoying peace & quiet before the family wakes up. 
 

Also, I missed the Taylor match while typing this out. Nice!

That happened so fast what happened? Tech or pin?

He's also a Senior Euro champ, which he won at like 20 years old.  Looks like he cut to 57 for the Olympics and that likely hurt his recent results.

I was wondering if the size would be an issue, I'm sure it won't as they were both down, and he's been a full sized 61 guy for most of the past

pin in 30 seconds

So best case for Gwiz is he gets Taha for bronze (which I'm predicting.... I got Zare for the gold baby)

We shall see

[nom 1,186]

If Zare gets gold, Flo should step up for a super match with Gable.  We would all pay good money for that.  
 

IF Zare gets gold.

Sadly, with Gable contracts, I double Flo can pay him enough to risk the shine he has.
