Take this from a guy that never wrestled until he put on mma gloves. Collegiate wrestling is the most entertaining sport to watch that there is. The athleticism shown at the ncaa tournament blows everything on earth away. The reason it doesn’t translate to mma is because they are penalized for stalling, stalling is half the goal in mma.
Here’s one of the most PHYSICAL sequences of wrestling you’ll ever see 😳‼️
In overtime - Van Ness and Swiderski battled like dogs, literally going head to head several times in back and forth attacks/reattacks.
Eventually Swiderski couldn’t keep up the pace and fell to known cardio merchant Shayne VAN NESS (PSU)

30 seconds that should reshape what Folkstyle wrestling defines as a takedown.
It shouldn’t be hard to understand that the offensive wrestler in this position should be rewarded for his efforts. If the officials continue to protect the defensive wrestler, we will continue to see less and less offense.
What would you rather see? A shootout or a match decided in tiebreakers because of riding time? I know my pick.

What was your favorite game from the original nes? Mine was Tecmo Dual. Game play wasn’t that realistic to actual folkstyle wrestling, but it was fun.

What John Mayer did on Althea last night was absolutely ridiculous.
I’ve watched this like five times since last night and don’t plan on stopping anytime soon.
