Why is this a td

 

It’s not a TD, it’s back exposure. Can’t see from this angle but if they saw from the other angle it’s 2.

Rd of 32: Sergei Semenov, UWW over Cohlton Schultz, USA, 5-2

 

Interesting that the only wrestler to win ANY matches today was the 18yr old youngster Jayden Raney.

(AND he's eliminated... though I would suspect that he may get placement points that included a fall in his second match.)

The ONLY wrestler that will be wresting tomorrow  from today's group would be Kamal Bey (by virtue of being pulled into repechage, due to the wrestler he lost to is in the finals.)

Bad loss by Schultz. Semenov is good, but  5-2 is a large gap at this weight class. Schutlz's defense isn't good enough to keep the field from scoring on him. He also doesn't have a great gut, lift, or push out to win him matches. 

So if you can't really score and you can't stop giving up points, well your chances of medaling will be low.

Russia looks on pace to be even worse in GR than MFS. They didn't even field a 55 kg (I think that speaks to the decline even more than the team score)?

Yeah Azizli is a grown man.

5-1 final 

Well that's the trick with 55 kg isn't it. Not many grown men can make 55 kg. The crop of malnourished farm boys that made up these weight classes are becoming a relic of the 20th century. 

I think it's partly why these really low weight classes seem to  have less volatility than 57-80 kg. A far tinier talent pool and a lot of teens/early 20 year old passerbys. So an experienced wrester who actually belongs at the weight can grab a lot of titles.
