…by the time I figured out the BTN+ I missed the 125# bout…are there any replays?…
 
Made it home to catch third period for Negron. Like this kid. What a story.
Am I reading it right that Berge up next? Wow what a great weekend!
 
Good to see RBY turning his opponent and multiple times. He can do the catch and release but working for back points and pins will be key come tournament time. Seems like the team might be focused on arm bars (and, to a lesser extent, tilts) the past few weeks. The first five guys were pretty comfortable with wrestlers in on their legs as well.
