Sad we didn’t see Dake vs Sidakov, but, man, hard to see anyone beating him in that form. Although the unspoken rule that ex-Russians aren’t allowed to beat the Russian rep continues ha
The latter, but it’s always been whispered that someone like Kadi can look so good against non-Russians then somehow never repeat that against the Russian rep. In reality, it’s just because the guy representing Russia is better and has run through the gauntlet. Last one I can remember beating his “homeland” is Gayzumov beating Gatslaov back in the day.
Unfucking real, how many Heavies could even literally move fast enough to beat the clock there?! Amazing

Just watched Gables match. What was that dude doing? Up 3 with 13 seconds left. Why are you shooting? Just circle, I mean just inexplicable
Hell, you can straight run away like Otoguro did at the end vs Rashidov, maybe time for one or two caution and 1s, not enough to lose the match. Madness
He kept Gable completely at bay when he got the lead with those shots. Still, 13 seconds left and a restart Looked shocked Gable cut him so quick and it was allowed, guessing that doesn’t happen often in freestyle
The ref fucked that up. He has to try to wrestle on the mat. You can't just cut someone after a takedown and get a restart.
Think it’s 6:30 eta, gonna set an alarm for 6:15. Watching USA gold medal game then this with a shit load of bourbon, gonna be out of my mind tomorrow
Medal rounds starts at 630Est, so anyone waiting on the big one can sleep a bit more. Supposed to be 720 Est for Snyderlaev III
Otoguro vs Aliyev not a bad appetizer, should be high flying. If Otoguro wins Japan ends with the most golds in wrestling in all likelihood(with 4 coming in women’s of course) and 3rd overall in medals.
