Gable beats Cassiopi 6-0. Only takedown was off a yolo shot from Cass that Gable went behind. Kinda a snoozer.

6 time world champ Jordan Burroughs techs a guy (Sean Brady) in his first ever wrestling match 11-0. A nice 5 and 4 though.

Cejudo pins Dvalishvilli in 0:36 off his first attack for 4.

Are we any closer to figuring out if Ono goes at 133 or 141 this year? Davino was nowhere near a TD. Ono is nearly impossible to score on.

 

[J.E.B]

Ono is built like a super ball. Just bounces around and opponent can’t get a grip on him. He’ll be fun to watch. Probably 141 since Blaze seems pretty set at 133. Isn’t he a 133 for worlds?

 

[Scam likely]

Their's no way Ono is wrestling 141 , Blaze is probably ready to start eating again and is taller than Ono.

This 5-5 stinks a little I think ONO could have went 125 and LL could have Red shirted this year

Ono tried to make 57Kg last year and his organs literally started shutting down. Probably best for him to disavow himself of that notion.

1) I wish Nolf would come out of “retirement” and represent the U.S. internationally.

2) This is a really good product now. I doubted it a bit early on, but it’s a really good product now. Well done @WillieTheBrain

I think we will see him wrestling again for 2027 and 2028

Sort of expected this result for Bo, at this level you can't be 1/2 in the margins are too close.

 

[El_Jefe]

Nickal had nothing all match.

Oof.

 

[Hockeygod11]

Oof.

He isn’t wrong. Nickal looked slow and bored.

Olympics are a vision quest requiring life-juggling commitment.
RAF is a lucrative, guaranteed paycheck requiring only prior achievement and a semblance of effort or training (see Nickal).
Love to see Jason do both. Doubt he will.

Give me Bo when a Natty's on the line. I don't think I've watched anyone more dangerous from the bottom position than Bo. I always remember Gibbons saying " you got to know when to let go of Bo!"

 

[Joejitsu]

Great event, I was here and I can say that Nolf looked ... well like Nolf. Fun to watch as always!
Ono... is impossible to score on
Bo... looked slow and seemed to gas... Max is strong

Davino couldn't touch his legs

 

[lionlover]

Ono is so strong. He pushed Davino all over the mat.

I knew that was going to be a given when I saw ONO out muscling Spencer Lee twice.

 

[AxonHillock1]

What is a crossover championship? Weren't these guys both college wrestlers?

Admittedly I know very little about the law and care even less about politics, but how does this jive with the sanctions against Russia?

Because it's not in an Arena owned by a company that has sanctions against it

So you can’t do business with a Russian bank but you can do business with a Russian government entity? Makes perfect sense.

Fox Nation was the one saying they couldn't air it because the arena owner was under sanctions. Having it at a government owned facility not sure how that's any different but they moved it
