I think his toe was in when he initiated the chest wrap although there was another stutter step in there. Very close. But how the hell does Trent get put on the clock when he initiated all the action and the Russian literally didn’t take an attack? It wasn’t like Trent wasn’t battling for center.

Dake wins a perfectly displayed Dake match. Gets his TD and then you have to do the same. Shuts him down! What a day.

I know we like to bitch and complain on these boards but can we give a shout out to just how well these world championships are produced. Lalovic has done a great job cleaning it up and bringing some respect back to the sport. The review refs have been fair and unbiased in all of their calls especially the one dude. The video playing of the champ while his anthem is being played. I’m impressed. And the Kazakhs have come out in force. Hats off. Now let’s get 10 weights back to the Olympics!

I know it was really nice. He sets it up very well and he’s obviously strong to pull that in. I was yelling up, up, up just like his coaches and then I’m like, ok no stay down haha.

Spencer said on Flo interview that he was fine after Lilledahl match. I thought he looked great today. Fast and crisp in his attacks. He just gave up a really well timed double and then that dude did a great job pouncing to the trap arm. RBY makes me nervous. He’s wrestling very well.

I understand and agree. I should have clarified. I’m thinking as a former high school coach who needed some of my guys, who didn’t know much about wrestling, to be able to go out and battle through a match. First step in getting good is learning how to not get pinned by a really good guy.

Amazing how she was able to completely control and dominate that match with taking a single shot. Ugly style but man was it effective. Lots of young wrestlers should watch her to learn that you have to develop a style that works for you and your body. That Japanese girl she shut out is good and had just beaten the defending world champ. Hats off the Leydecker. Super impressive performance and that’s super cool if that really was her old man in her corner.

Yoshida and Snyder are 1-1 so that wasn’t the final earlier. He’s legit. I just watched the Tevanyan semi in its entirety and he didn’t get very tired but they didn’t do much early and he got a timely break in the second period. He’s a tough match up for Bo. Doesn’t take a lot of risk and stays in very good position and super tough to get to his legs. Can Bo melt him? I think he can. USA USA USA

Watch the Tevanyan vs Mamedov semi and please explain to me how in the hell they put the Russian/Bulgarian back on the clock? I watch this sport an awful lot and it’s nuts I still can’t even figure out the rules.

Also Yoshida beat Yazdani earlier in a last second TD.

Btw Amouzad kinda screwed although I have seen similar calls. Up 1 with 4 secs left they bang him with a caution and 1 for not engaging.

That was wild.

Yoshida Taz semi opposite Snyder. That’s a good match. Taz has looked pretty good.

And my god what a warrior Snyder is. He’s taken some tough losses to Sadulaev but to keep grinding and to pull that match out. So much respect for that dude! Keep it rolling.

That little Armenian hammer Tevanyan beat him. He’s a tough out.
