Another passivity against Hancock, and it ends 3-1 IRI. Hancock is now out. Rough Day 1 for the Greco guys.

I believe I heard two podcasts with him as guest in the past 3 weeks, and one last week. I believe it was in the Path to Paris series with Shane Sparks. Interesting to say the least. He grew up with Gary Hall as his GR coach in his hometown so he concentrated on that. Lots of injuries. Two Olympic teams and this is his first World Team, due to injuries. Divorced with a kid he adores. Renting a room at a friends place as he was training for worlds. Said that part of his training was hand cutting fallen trees until his forearms killed. Friends with PD3. Heard he was in a bit of trouble a few months ago, so drove the 5 hours to Ames to pick him up and bring him to Wisconsin to be his training partner. Never mentioned anything about NLWC that I remember. I would be interested to see him and Bo go live in practice. That would be a fun day
Crop, thanks for the PBP. If you are ever in Austin, TX, I'll buy the BBQ and beer.
Provisor is a DENNIS Hall disciple. I don't know who Gary Hall is.
If I ever get to Texas (I rarely get to travel), I'll definitely take ya up on that.

Lots of interesting insights with Manville

Thanks for the correction. Been following the GR stuff only for about 6 months now, and Dennis Hall is a huge kick to listen to. Just listened to the Andy Bisek and Nate Engel this morning at the gym. Fun stuff. Gary Hall is a slip as he was the Olympic swimmer at UT here in Austin
5PtMove is a great outlet.
I guess they started early with finals... RoboCop Georgian beats Uzbek for one of the 98g Bronze.

Georgian coach just back-arched his wrestler. Not that I got to see it in all of it's glory, due to shitty feed.
Thanks for posting that! I think that is the first interview I have seen of MM. Great attitude!
Hafizov ain't lettin' the refs decide. Gave up an early 4, recovered from back. ARM goes for another toss, Hafizov plants him. 4-2 ARM, and there's blood time.
Hafizov repeatedly going after the head, attacking the chin. He gets warned, and immediately on the next whistle does the same thing. Caution +2 ARM. 6-2 heading into the break for ARM.
Passivity on ARM, 6-3. Ildar picks up the pace, looking for hooks, but lunges and gets caught in double unders. No exposure, but ARM gets a takedown out of it (might have been correct throw) to go up 8-3. Hafizov tries repeated high dive attempts. Nothing takes. 8-3 Final.
Rough start to Day 2. Which is too bad. I love Ildar's pace and activity level.

Haight goes double overs, but HUN stops it. Initially scored 1 HUN? Now, we have 2 for correct throw. Each guy attempts an arm throw and slips. It is 2-0 Haight. Then, he's warned for passivity because they are constantly attempting.
2-0 at the half.
2-0 at the half.
Haight goes back to the double overs well and gets planted for a fall. 0-2, not a great start, today.
Morning, there, Sportfan!

Slip throw off the whistle for Robby. Passivity against Slovakia and a step out make it 2-0 Robby.
Another USA loss ....by fall. USA 0-2 in the first round
Good Morning to you. I got locked out so....you might be on your own

Coleman gets a go-behind to go up 2-0 over Brazil.
I gotta say, USA has gotten much better about attacking the body in Greco in the last few years.

Coleman catches a step out because BRA can't control his body, 3-0. Slip throw for BRA. Another step out when Coleman has double unders, 4-0. Coleman turns and underhook to a throwby takedown on the edge. 6-0. A drive out by Coleman makes it 7-0, and same thing makes it 8-0 tech! I could see the last one being a "push", but they gave it to him. USA back to 2-2 with two good W's to end this opening round of guys.
Robby on deck on 1, HUN at 80kg needs to win his match that's on deck on 3 in order to keep Haight alive.
I know you mean Brazil but can't help giggling at BRA can't control body and slip for BRA.
