That was a THICC Sadulaev we saw. Like, bulk season Sadulaev. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s pretty common to see Micah with front row seats at home PSU duals. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

He’s going to have to win four or five matches on the first day, culminating with Nolf, then take 2 of 3 from Dake, the next day. All while making 74kg each day. He hasn’t wrestled at 74kg since the 2021 OTTs. I think he’s going to have a hard time making it past Nolf. Who, depending on how they seed it, he could see VERY early on, if Nolf is active at Ranking Series events. And, I doubt JB will be making it to very many 74kg RS competitions before OTTs. I don’t think he has many massive pulls down to 74kg left in him. So, we could see a Nolf vs JB R16 or R8 match. IMO, that’s a huge disadvantage for JB. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Easy there, Ben. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Through the power of the transitive property (/s), we know that DT > Yazdani > Geduev/Bekzod > JB, therefore DT > JB. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Given that the posters before you had described Gulf states more or less buying athletes (involving changing citizenship), like the topic of the thread, I thought you implying that they were getting Tadej Pogacar, etc. to change their nationality. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

None of them change their nationality to race for Bahrain-Victorius or UAE Team Emirates. Big diffference. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We’re talking about a guy who has wrestled 0 folk matches against a likely 4-timer with what I’m guessing is nearly a four digit number of folk matches under his belt. A guy who accumulated nearly four minutes of riding time against Myles Amine, who is also an Olympic medalist, and had five seasons of collegiate folkstyle wrestling.

I believe Brooks has more TDs against Taylor than Yazdani does in the last couple years. If Yazdani came in and started wrestling Folk in January, he’d still be lucky to not get decked by Brooks at 197, IMO. Brooks isn’t a renowned pinner but a guy like Yazdani has never felt a hard two minute ride and might get stalled out or just flop over to end it sooner. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I posted that before I looked at the brackets. I know Kurugliev transferred but he isn’t wrestling at Worlds. Injured? Not eligible yet? Either way, if he’s healthy, he’ll be the 86kg for Greece next year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The 86kg entry for Greece is the Russian who smoked DT with a heel to the chin a couple years back in a worlds quarter or semi.

I know. He’s super talented and a technical wizard. But if Evan Henderson and Yianni can beat him, Nick Lee should be able to, as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That will be burned into my mind forever. I can see him doing it in the future but until I do, he’s stuck at the “got lit up by a guy who smokes four packs of cowboy killers a day” level. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I’m a huge Nick Lee fan but his wrestling IQ isn’t there yet. He did everything possible to lose to Musukaev in their match when other Americans have shown a very clear blueprint for beating him. He threw that match away. I’d love to be proven wrong, of course. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

DT’s out there wrestling Folk against some newbs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Dauletbekov got 12-0’d last year by DT; if he can go the distance that would be a significant improvement. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hell, there were a bunch of war crimes in Afghanistan. A bunch of shit that didn’t ever make the news, either. Clint Lorance is a particularly terrible human being. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maywand_District_murders https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kandahar_massacre https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clint_Lorance Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Baby Yaz is blowing hard; I’m surprised Bulgaria is challenging this right now. Yeah. Bad challenge. Live, it didn’t look like he was completely out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The review during Vito’s semi makes me think of any time someone like Dake chest wraps someone and takes them over straight back. Dake lands on his own back and more often than not, the other guy lands ON Dake and not on the mat. If his back doesn’t make contact with the mat, is that truly a 4 point move?

If they prevent Russia from adding to the tally of 700,000 kids they’ve stolen (by their own admission, mind you), I’m guessing the fighting men and women of Ukraine will bear that burden. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/moscow-says-700000-children-ukraine-conflict-zones-now-russia-2023-07-03/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Code word? Dog whistle? If one achieves tactical and operational goals, such as penetrating and breaching a heavily fortified mine-wire trench obstacle (while massing counter battery fire on their one remaining true strength that supports it: pre-registered artillery) I would call that success.

Tell me what is going on here. You’re so well educated on everything, oh Brain, so you surely know. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m surprised a Russian is so confident about ANYTHING these days. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
