Well it’s definitely inarguable.  Just not in the way you think.

my participation level in wrestling is exponentially more vast than yours...

it is 100% true and verifiable...

you clearly know very, very little about the sport and prove it daily...

that is on you, not me...

The article says nothing about RAF

Why do you keep doing this

The IBA entered an official agreement with RAF to present events including RAF Moscow.

Umar Kremlev was quoted in articles about it.

Umar Kremlev apparently has a lot of disposable income.

RAF Moscow was one of, maybe the, most star-studded amateur wrestling events of all time.

In order to get all these people in general, not to mention to travel to Russia during a war, they probably needed to pay some good money.

It’s not a crazy conspiracy theory to guess that this money might’ve come from the guy we know has a lot of disposable income who has also used this income to support other famous Americans.  Who is also the President of the organization presenting the event.

It's a crazy conspiracy theory.

Most of the Russian talent who competed at RAF Moscow only signed one-match contracts as opposed to RAF's standard 3 or 5-match deals since they don't have travel visas.

That's why Nolf's match with Khaniev was switched to a non-title Catchweight bout even though they both made weight - RAF didn't want a situation where Khaniev won the belt and wasn't able to defend it

I was moreso talking about the American talent than the Russian talent with that comment.  I know they’ve all done other RAF matches but putting so many of them on one card I’d have to think they were getting more than usual.  

And as much as Willie wants to claim that it didn’t matter that it wasn’t legitimately streamed in the US, it might’ve actually mattered to RAF if they weren’t getting a suitcase of cash.

i didn't say 'it didn't matter'.

of course it would have been better (in terms of brand/excitement/financially etc) if it would have been streamed.

what i said was that just because we couldn't legally stream doesn't mean the event should have been canceled.

I think the bigger issue that got the natives restless is that leading up to the event it was promoted as being on Fox Nation (including day of event the RAF website still had ad promos for streaming it on Fox Nation), the last appearance you did before leaving for Moscow on Basch&Brain you said "of course it will be streamed somewhere - at worst our youtube for free", etc.  Over and over we were told we would be able to watch it

We know it was illegal to stream it in the US now, and that was pointed out ahead of time or at least alluded to w/ the ESPN article but RAF never acknowledged that publicly or made any kind of statement about it (to my knowledge) ahead of the event.  RAF put themselves in that situation by either not properly vetting things ahead of time (or knowing the situation and thinking they could get away or around it).

It would have gone along way if RAF simply said, "We know we marketed this to Americans but we messed up and we won't have a stream for it due to international broadcast complications."  It's the lack of accountability for RAF's own actions that is the bigger issue to the bulk of people.

Yes, and i agreed 'a statement should have been made' ad nauseam. 

if you listened to the show enough to say 'i criticized flo for not announcing kennedy' you probably listened when i said 'a statement should have been made on moscow'.

so how is that me being hypocritical? unless you're under some silly notion that i'm the PR Department at RAF.

Christ you're thick sometimes...

Lol, you only regretfully acknowledged that “OK I’ll agree that RAF should have put out a statement” after Basch destroyed you.  You also said after that that “you’d do it all over again.”

Meanwhile on this one you said about not announcing Kennedy wasn’t wrestling “what are you doing?!?!!” Plus when you said that you seemed to think that was USA Wrestling’s decision, but then included that as the second item you listed as Flo having a “bad weekend.”  So was it Flo’s decision or USA wrestling?  Not to mention the first item you listed as a reason for Flo’s “bad weekend” was no commentary, when the few Americans that did get to watch RAF Moscow had 90% of it in Russian/with gifs of Leonardo DiCaprio covering half of the screen.

Please don’t suggest your reaction to the two very similar things happening was similar in your reactions.
