d3grappler Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 So what’s the strategy for Kyle here? Don’t shoot and beat the shit out of him with a hand fight and go for push outs? Maybe look for a high shot at the end? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle26 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Muz vs Aliyev one of the best matches so far. I get the impression they don’t like each other lol. Muz is just so stinkin explosive when he goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryC Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 12 hours ago, gimpeltf said: it wasn't the least bit subjective. Knees down like that is grounded. JAP knew to keep them down and he did so it wasn't a close call. I stand corrected. Thanks for the explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a reason he couldn't finish high school, why he wasn't welcome at Iowa, why he had to open a club. All the potential in the world and his ego has never stopped ruining every step along the way. But that same potential is why he's in Blaydes corner when she's in the semis at the olympics. So it is what it is. i am an idiot on the internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe look for a high shot at the end? Yes, that has to be it. Stay Square, don't get extended, movement, banging, pushing, constant forward motion, maybe look for picks(at least for some action). Just try and grind him down, but if you can't hit that high C and stay on your feet with your head up, let it go. The guy isn't just a one trick pony or anything, he's a stud, but I think Snyder can win by wearing him down and just hopefully wear him down and hit a couple clean shots.

Not the Real Scribe Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 2 hours ago, oldschool said: Zain loses 0-8. Great showing by Amouzad. I really don't understand Zain's gameplan there. He spent 95% of the match pushing Amouzad away and not tying up. Looked like he was worried about Amouzad's underhook, but Zain's a scrappy handfighter. He didn't put himself into a position where he could take a single committed shot the entire match. That's partly due to Amouzad's great positioning, but what I found puzzling was why Zain would try to remain at arm's length that entire match. He kept pushing off and keeping his distance. Ugh, as tough as Amouzad is, just saw he's got the Hungarian next round, who he needs to beat to bring Zain back into the mix. That Hungarian is tough as nails. Don't recall, but Amouzad may have beaten him in the finals when he won worlds a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spladle08 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Snyder hasn't looked particularly great but neither has Taz. No Idea what will happen. If Snyder loses, what a tough bronze match, if he wins though, Gold all the way baby!

His style transitions really well to freestyle. Agreed. I'm over the Zain/Yianni/N. Lee era. Hopefully, Alirez can do what they couldn't and actually improve as a freestyle wrestler. I believe Mendez is our man for the next cycle. He continues to improve. This will be his 3rd year in college. He hasn't used a redshirt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to predict 65kg, lots of talent Bassett (may not grow), Valencia, Mendez, Alirez, Bartlett, old man Nick Lee, or Old man Johnny D....maybe somebody else.... 4 years is a long ways away and at this weight the separation between the top and the 6th guy aint much. Just whoever decides to have a solid tournament when it matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
