He’s 17 and he just beat 3 top tier wrestlers. But those aren’t real offensive points the rules are supposed to create action. Not technicalities. Jb won against haines with no offensive points today I think too Imagine an ncaa finals match decided on 4 stalling calls a fleeing the mat and some other nonsense. People would lose their minds.

Pretty sure 18 by time of vote. Would think you'd know but maybe you were asleep during passage of 26th? 1 2BPE 11/17/24 SMC
Mr. PeanutButter Posted September 15 Posted September 15 Playing Devil's advocate here but is Blaze going to get much (any) better? Fix didnt...

He will get bigger and probably settle into 65kg. Adding muscle to that technique and defense and he will be very good 4

Steps outs are definitely offensive points. They aren’t takedowns and they aren’t worth as much as takedowns. But I am glad they award the guy taking an offensive attack and driving his opponent out of bounds. Using JB and Ringer as an example, JB was definitely on the attack and earned those push outs. That’s not always the case, but I think the majority of the time it is and I’m glad they award those points. 2

Perry Posted September 15 Posted September 15 Blaze is 17.. odds of him getting better technically are 90%+ 1
denger Posted September 15 Posted September 15 11 hours ago, Mr. PeanutButter said: Playing Devil's advocate here but is Blaze going to get much (any) better? Fix didnt... I see the parallels you're referencing. Blaze is only about a year younger than fix was when he started winning some matches at the senior level. I think the comparison is more accurate through Blaze's Olympic team trials, though. Back in April we were all impressed that he had made the national team after dropping a 4-2 loss to Suriano and coming back through consolations; 2-2 over Megaludis; 5-1 over Lilledahl FF from Fix, ;then 8-1 over Jax Forrest. Impressive run, but a 2-2 over Megaludis was the only win over an opponent that wasn't still in HS. Blaze's 4 wins yesterday mark a huge improvement since April. All his wins were over grown men, 2 over guys who've wrestled for senior world medals (one whom owns a silver), and shutting out Garrett. It's not like he's spent his month scouting those dudes, either - A week ago the 17yr old was bringing hardware home from U20s in Spain. I also like that he looks like a 17yr old beating grown men. It doesn't look like his physical attributes are what these veterans struggled with, rather it was sound fundamentals, rarely conceding any position, excellent mat awareness and clock management, perfectly cool in hot exchanges. So, yes, I think he will improve. 1
