Thanks for the updates. When does Zain and DT wrestle for Gold our time ?
Richards done. Valencia is down and comes back to win 12-9 over Iran. Dake cruises and will wrestle Japan. Yes, the whole country.
On to quarters. I don't know when the champs are but will try to determine.

Both Chance (3-9) and Valencia (1-5) lose. Sliver lining is Iran loses and won't medal at 92kg.

It is good to know the finals start around noon today. I don't want to start any projects until that portion is complete.
Chance is out, Valencia is being pulled back in.

! CONGRATULATIONS ZAIN !!!! NLWC BABY.
Way to go Zain. Congrats on reaching the pinnacle.
One Yaz down.
One Yaz down.
Amazing!!! Pinned and teched way thru Worlds, that’s gotta be a first! I thought the refs might rob DT on his 1st takedown. He took Yaz down with relative ease. Def Lb for Lb best on planet. I am so jazzed and pumped! Effing love that Zain won too!!! What a NLWC day!!!!

Hard to argue that. Incredible.
No DT was up 7-3 or so, and seemed to be able to take Yaz down when he wanted to. Yaz is so defensive.
Here’s the moment of the pin, haven’t found any extended views yet
Good luck finding any video with Flo involved. They take videos down from You Tube that weren’t even their original product. ********. Talk about trying to grow the sport for the casual fan.
