Name the wrestler who was a National Champ the SAME year he missed weight at a lower weight and had to bump up a weight at the national tournament. Just now, KCMO2 said: Chris Taylor He must have missed weight by over 200 pounds! 2

Taylor was given anywhere from 390-425 (I think more at the Olympics). When I "weighed" Tab in at Lehigh about 40 years ago- I told him not to bother getting on the scale and asked him how much. He started at 390 and as I stared at him he went up a couple times and we settled on 415! 1 1
