Sr. Worlds... Day 3

[Ragu]

WTH was that. Wrestling to not lose to a vet like Sidakov is a no-no

[boconnell]

Wow.  Such a tough loss.

[bnwtwg]

Sidakov is so clutch. It's not fair. He owns us, that's all there is to it. blaaarrrrghhhh

[pawrestler]

Ughhhh that’s painful

[nhs67]

Another low-IQ result from Carr.  Disappointing.

[Dark Energy]

God dammit.  What the hell.  Carr should have been able to get Sid’s knees down.  WTF

What was low IQ about it?  He just got beat.  

[Interviewed_at_Weehawken]

How pissed is Mamiashvili at Valiev right about now?

They got lost. They think they're on 4/8chan

[SocraTease]

Why the hell didn't Carr get 2 for the apparent TD out of bounds?

Why didn't Metcalf challenge that?

And what kind of "fleeing the mat" was that?  (It looked like a normal 1 point push out)

So many questions, so little time (left)

 

[D3 for LU]

Snakebitten... when you should NOT be snakebitten.

Welcome to 5th place, Mr. Carr.

[Ragu]

Cannot believe that only Brent Metcalf has beaten Sidakov, America-wise

The challange wasnt worth the risk of losing.  I think they waved the fleeing.

He gave a step out up.  Know where you are.  Circle in.  Sidakov didn't expertly chess his way in to cornering Carr out.  Carr knew what to expect and gave it up.  Just like he shot himself out of his Valiev match.

He fixes those, and he is going to be even more dangerous.

Yep.  I think it was 2 but you don't challenge that.  If you lose the challenge you are behind.  Just not worth it risk/reward.

Knees weren't down.  Sidakov put both hands down out of bounds.

[nhs67]

Valiev hurt.  Either it's real bad or he's a great actor.

[shiraz321]

What's to stop someone from faking an injury in that situation and getting out of it without giving up points. Not saying Valiev is doing that.

What are you watching?

He did circle in.  He was pointed towards the center with a front headlock and got cross dragged and pushed out.  He did what he was supposed to and got beat by a wrestling move.  He needs to wrestle better to win there.  It has nothing to do with wrestling IQ.

Easier said than done. Carr has never seen someone at this level on this stage and I don't think he lost the match. Doesn't mean Carr's not a gamer but Sidakov has been one of the best in the world for a decade for a reason.

I watched the same match as you.  He had low wrestling IQ in the two most important matches against the two most clutch 74 KG guys on the planet.  If he is smarter in both of those matches, he wins.  He didn't need to wrestle better.

Yes.  And guy inbounds gets some time to get knees down.  Carr was given no time.  BS.

[shiraz321]

Imagine wrestling this Gorilla with one knee. Brutal

You're just making stuff up.  It had nothing to do with wrestling IQ.  Nothing in that match has anything to do with IQ or wrestling smart.
