  1. Does UWW charge cash for challenges? If they do, should they increase the fee? Because if not, we're ruining some great moments with these futile challenges.
  2. 2 GR weights and 1 WFS weight per day, until GR swaps out for MFS later in the week. Should be 6 GR bouts before we switch to the 2 WFS bronze medal matches then Elor.
  3. 5-0 final. Vinesh of IND tomorrow for gold.
  4. HIldebrandt's D and counter offense were just outstanding. MGL can't believe she didn't finish any of her shots.
  5. Great effort fighting off the MGL shot
  6. 5-0 at half. Hildebrandt looking really sharp.
  7. Elor's bout is supposed to be #15 of the session - not sure how they get thru 10 more bouts in an hour. Kozak's estimate is probably correct.
  8. Youth wrestling is about participation. College/junior wrestling is about competition. Open/Olympic wrestling is about winning. It's pretty ruthless out there.
  9. USA Wrestling is reporting Elor's match is slated to take place at 1:53P ET.
  10. Looks like he dropped the underhook to create a belly to belly. I believe he did finish to the closed-arm/overhook side.
  11. Hard to believe the straight attacks from KGZ are going to work on Elor, particularly with a night of film study. Fingers crossed.
  12. Please, Amit - no over/under. Just use your 2-on-1.
  13. For those who need a 2-minute warning. Elor's match should be next.
  14. The Cuban Chilean has now advanced to the final without scoring a single offensive point. This is a problem.
  15. Mixed relays are supported by smaller countries that may have two fast men and/or two fast women but not four fast men and/or four fast women on the track or in the pool; see the Dutch woman (Femke Bol) running down the US when the Dutch can't field a men's or women's team that compete against the US. I think the mixed events are a lot of fun and would love to see UWW figure out how to replicate the mixed judo event.
  16. Still not sure I believe top Lopez is/was better than top Karelin, but five gold medals will speak for themselves. Lopez's positioning is top notch, his low gut is unstoppable, and he is so good at conserving energy. Wonder if he will have any thoughts on 2028 after these games are said and done.
  17. Bruce Baumgartner was described as a moving brick wall in his prime. Same applies to Lopez.
  18. How do we create our Mijain Lopez-Teddy Riner dream match? Seems like gi/no gi makes all the difference.
  19. Sweet lat drop from JPN for the win. Leg position and back arch (and 360 view) were just outstanding. Also, looks like a great crows for this session. Vibes were poor leading into these games, but it looks like the French are showing out for these events.
  20. A six match session at 3P. Olympics gotta get their money.
  21. KGZ with the last second TD! JPN is out of the running for gold. KGZ-NGR in the other semi opposite of Elor.
  22. KGZ getting work done over JPN in the 4th women's quarterfinal.
