I really like Mekhi and he is obviously a better counter wrestler than offensive, but he HAS to be penalized for backing up and doing nothing. I totally agree.Lewis deserves exactly what he got there. That was the biggest Neutral stalling exhibition since Trent Hidlay. Complete bullshit that Lewis was only called for one stalling in that match. Just typically absurd Folk Officiating to let someone wrestle like that for roughly 6 minutes of Neutral wrestling with no penalty points.
No, he would have been losing without a takedown and no escapeDid Lewis make a mistake there by not choosing neutral when he had choice in the second ride out period? Do I understand these new rules correctly (which I think need fixing BTW), that with the riding time advantage all he had to do was not give up the takedown and win with 8 seconds (or whatever it was) of riding time?

Takes away the whining about Dean’s “fluky” wins keeping UM from winning.123.5 to 95.

No - cause Carter escaped. You choose neutral when you get a rideout cause riding adv wins in a tie score. But Carter went up by one point with the escape.Did Lewis make a mistake there by not choosing neutral when he had choice in the second ride out period?

What a heart attack finals....hope the grey hairs are doing ok
it may get worse
CStar got an escape in the first ride-out, so Lewis was down one point. Going neutral would not be the percentage play in that situation.Did Lewis make a mistake there by not choosing neutral when he had choice in the second ride out period?

He would have lost by 1 since Carter escaped. The RT only matters if they both escape, I think? The take neutral move is what happened to Bartlett when he couldnt escape.Did Lewis make a mistake there by not choosing neutral when he had choice in the second ride out period?

Worth itI spilled my drink all over the place pounding the table. The wife grew up in Iowa. I get the couch tonight.
