Masonbuckeye Posted March 17 Posted March 17 This morning I got a picture of Matt Ramos pinning Spencer Lee pop up on my phone saying 2 years ago today. After remembering this I rewatched the clip and it still is the most electrifying moment in the history of collegiate wrestling in my opinion. Also, part of me feels like so much has happened with both Matt Ramos and Spencer Lee since. Spencer has taken the freestyle world by storm when many didn’t think that was possible and looks like he could be the next face of USA wrestling. Matt Ramos failed to AA last year and has had a spectacular season this year but after the Lilledahl match some are concerned that he can be a national champion. But bothing will change that result that night. 1
BarSeries Posted March 17 Posted March 17 I didn't start following the sport until last year. I would have LOVED to witness that live when it happened. What a moment in the sport. (RIP eyeglasses) 2
ICpanther Posted March 17 Posted March 17 (edited) What does the PA guy say when the ref slaps the mat for the pin? I've never been able to figure out what he says right before he says "PURDUUUEEEE" Edited March 17 by ICpanther i'm dumb
Coastal Posted March 17 Posted March 17 One thing that people tend to forget is that even without the pin, Ramos was still winning that match. 1
Jimmy Cinnabon Posted March 17 Posted March 17 It was also notable how Spencer forfeited the rest of the tournament after losing. But was seemingly 100% healthy a few weeks later. 1

If no pin the match would have ended 11-8 Ramos (2 point takedown, 4 point nearfall, Lee still got the riding time point) 1

Spencerlee Posted March 17 Posted March 17 Early first period termination, either style if they wrestled today.
Coastal Posted March 17 Posted March 17 15 minutes ago, Spencerlee said: Early first period termination, either style if they wrestled today. I wouldn't think that Ramos would pin him in the first every time.

Spencerlee Posted March 17 Posted March 17 Just now, Coastal said: Not as weak as Lee's attempt at fighting off his back. There you go. That one was better.

RawDog Posted March 18 Posted March 18 I believe Ramos has a world silver in freestyle. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw them wrestle again soon.
