Olympic Trials Qualifier (U.S. Open)

If you freeze it at the 1:11 mark, Ruth is trying to break DT's tripod and moves up on him...at this point, DT reaches down and grabs Ruth's ankle and hips in to expose Ruth. All initiated by DT.
 
Taylor patted him on his belly when they met in the center for the hand raising. Ed just looked shocked.

Yikes - prob was shocked. I was shocked too. Didn't think DT could take him that easily (didn't see the match though)
 
Yeah their wrestling this tournament straight through. No breaks.
 
I don't know if this has been mentioned but Chris Perry and Valencia actually threw punches after their match. After Perry got his 10 point tech he kept wrestling and Valencia pushed him away. Perry then seemed to kick him. They actually then threw punches. I don't see a boxing career for either wrestler.

Yeah, I saw that. Can't remember who exchanged what, but I think it was more of Valencia being frustrated and Perry breaking him.

It was all on Valencia and he was DQ'ed from the tournament.

Problem with this generation...not well rounded.

can you see the feed yet? I'm still on a black screen and the little wheel on the screen keeps cycling like it's searching.
It's hanging for me too. Others on themat are posting the same. Very frustrating.

If you're still having trouble, try this advice from a themat poster:

"Finally got mine to work. I had to click on the video link on the match panel in the arena."

Got it now. Watching the girls...some pretty entertaining matches.
 
Dake just has Taylor's number. He seems to know how to change pace at the right time and seize the moment a little better than DT. The only thing I thought was that it seemed like DT was the aggressor for a good bit of the match and there could have been some passivity called against Dake. It seemed like the passivity was used a little more readily in the earlier matches. Passivity aside, Dake was the better wrestler again. I would have never thought he'd beat DT 7 straight. No average officiating excuses there.

I hope DT can eventually get over the hump and beat him. DT is such a class act, it would be nice to see him get some satisfaction eventually.

Did they already wrestle tonight ? Or you talking about prior matches ?
