Really need Ringer to keep banging on that head and wear down Brooks so Zahid can hang on for an 18-16 nail biter and break BJC's spirit

Ringer is world class. Must be frustrating for him.

Marstellar sure moves a little more at 190 compared to when Uncle John made him go 157.

Well he’s no longer hooked on drugs so that helps

He really is...he's so good, he's just absolutely the wrong frame to find success at olympic weights.  

[Pinnacle]

Brooks dominated Ringer after the initial score.

[wrestle87]

Are we going to have to sit through these challenge matches one at a time?

If you watch individual mat feeds you may miss J'Den's interview but you also miss Brooks' interview. I say it's a wash. The Cox may only be on The Cock tonight but I can see what The Cox says anytime on youtube and lord knows I listen to my Cox on a daily basis

He has not found success at 79kg either.

They can only have 5 after Kerk lose to Gwiz but they have at least one in the final at every other weight 

But they won't have six? LOL

That JV wrestler hinted they were the favorite at all six weights?

He needs to get on that San Marino team.

If he does that he'd definitely medal at worlds.

Edit: You're 100% correct.  He's world class, but that's pretty tough when there are multiple guys at 74, 79 and 86 who are even more world class...

Foolish because Kerk still isn’t confident on the world level ,this season was the first he truely believed he was best in Folk , another year or 2 maybe but idk why you take Basch so serious he’s obviously a homer

Sage Mortimer is a great name. Something from dungeons and dragons

[oldschool]

Nolf vs JB up next on mat 1. I think Nolf's closed the gap and this may be his time, but JB looks dialed in & focused, so imho a tossup. Def one of the matches I was most excited about coming in

[jchapman]

Can someone refresh my memory:  Marstellar and Stefanowicz are related how?  Brothers?

Huge match. I wish they could both win.

brothers is what the announcer said, though I don't understand the specifics

Lost to Zahid / beat Zahid, lost to Dake / 2019 bumped to 86 for olympics / lost to JB at 79 / tore his ACL

That's just a bad beat. Only domestic losses were to the people above and Myles Martin his first year at 86 if memory serves. Tough break.

[pawrestler]

nvm

I don’t disagree. The USA is just very good. It’s not because there is not the right weight class for him.

Agree.  74 is the right weight class for him, domestic competition not withstanding.

[wrestle87]

So, is the JB nolf match happening right now and peacock is just playing greco and WFS instead?

I don't take JV wrestlers serious.  Nor do I take a no-kneed heavyweight serious.
