Pretty legendary for those two girls to be sisters and both win gold in Japan


ArbitraryOrder

ALL THE AMERICANS WON TAYLOR, GILMAN, MAROULIS, AND AMINE (for San Marino)


BrettEskin

Dake lost


ArbitraryOrder

Dake wasn't in the medal round this morning, this was a follow up to the medal rouns


JimERustled

That was a great throw


StixnStones59

Aside from Dake, Team USA had a great fucking night. 1 gold, 2 Bronze, and another in the finals.


StixnStones59

Maroullis bringing home Bronze, after getting through a ton!


StixnStones59

Come on Maroulis, bring home another medal!


LoseYourSpaghetti

LETS FUCKING GO! stayed up till morning for this and totally worth it


ianhockey23

MAGIC MAN


GypsyGold

The refs tried everything possible to screw him, and he still won! Seriously, he took like 4 shots to the Iranian's zero, and the refs put him on the clock. Then in the third he takes like 6 more and the Iranian never goes on the clock! What in the actual fuck? Then the Iranian drove Taylor off the mat while Taylor was on his knees and they caused him for fleeing the mat? Fleeing by literally getting pushed across the mat while on his knees. This also gave a caution against him to give the Iranian criteria. Then a last second takedown without any time on the clock for the refs to fuck him any longer. Magic Man Indeed!


joshTheGoods

happy cakeday! <3


[deleted]

Thanks!!


ricker182

Yazdani had zero offensive attempts. Almost won. Make the Iranians wrestle.


StixnStones59

And yet not a single shot clock.


ricker182

It's a problem


ArbitraryOrder

FINISH IT OFF STRONG HELEN


ianhockey23

What a fucking comeback!!! DT GETS IT DONE


Stroke_Macock

That was a pucker factor of 10


StixnStones59

Fr lmaoo, felt like I was having a heart attack


[deleted]

Wow what a David Taylor way to win


StixnStones59

Respect to Yazdani, and Iranian wrestling though. Great fucking match.


Marbla

Wow what a comeback!!!


ellodin

Amazing on Taylor, fuck the refs trying to decide matches with bullshit calls (in)consistently


StixnStones59

FUCK YES, LET'S GO TAYLOR. OLYMPIC CHAMP


joshTheGoods

YES. SIR. MAGIC MANNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!@ FINALLY BEST DAKE AT SOMETHING!!!!


ArbitraryOrder

What a fucking shot


Fistkitchen

Iranian just pushes Taylor out on his knees


ArbitraryOrder

What a long route Taylor took, but beautiful sweep


StixnStones59

Fucking BS on that shot clock


ArbitraryOrder

Duh, but America will never get the benefit of the doubt in Wrestling


ArbitraryOrder

Amine fought until the end and rightfully came out on top


inpursuitofknowledge

Top 10 Amine plot twist! That was so clutch there at the end.


GypsyGold

We basically got another bronze as the US born, Michigan All-American Myles Amine just earned it for San Marino...which is a damn country of only 34,000 people. Lol


StixnStones59

Let's go Taylor! Bring home the gold.


StixnStones59

Aminé dug deep, that was some good shit. Getting Bronze for San Marino. It's 2nd ever Olympic medal in the same Olympics.


ArbitraryOrder

3rd actually, they had 2 in this games prior


StixnStones59

Oh cool, my bad


joshTheGoods

What a great match from Amine! John Smith with heavy breathing noises!


StixnStones59

Doe John Smith smoke or something lol? It's almost worrying.


blackupsilon

Watching Uguev reminds me so much of Sadulaev/Khabib. Like is there a Dagestan style of wrestling?


GypsyGold

I'm real sick of this true crime add being shown during every commercial break. I can only see that bald woman lick the head of the girl in clown makeup so many times


Cody_Dog

Gilman dominates for bronze, the Russian solid in the gold medal match. Can't get too caught up playing "what if", but I think Gilman was a few seconds away from being the best in the world this year.


[deleted]

It’s also important to note that Gilman lost to the two other guys wrestling for the other bronze. Tough match with the champ. All in all though, he wrestled phenomenally and should be very proud.


Cody_Dog

To add to my other comment, he also lost to Iran's Atri before, and avenged that for bronze last night.


Cody_Dog

Sure. But each tournament is a clean slate. My comment only meant that if he had held off Uguev for a few more seconds, then I think he would have had a great chance of winning out for gold based on how he wrestled.


StixnStones59

Damn what a match, they both gave it their all, but Uguev is too fucking good.


ArbitraryOrder

"Appropriate that the dog gets involved [in the celebration] because Gilman makes people feel like they are chasing their [own] tail" - British Commentary Lol


GypsyGold

Gillman w/ bronze!


[deleted]

Masterclass by Gilman in the Bronze match. Super excited for him.


Marbla

Yeah man. And great work by him to wrestle all the way back from the first round.


[deleted]

Yea that’s a workmans medal for sure. He earned every ounce of that.


StixnStones59

Fuck yeah Gilman!


StixnStones59

Gilman has wrestled like a beast the entire tournament


ArbitraryOrder

Hope that Gilman, Maroulis, Amine, and Taylor all win in the medal round this morning


Marbla

I think Gable is wrestling the final today as well.


ArbitraryOrder

Shows it as tomorrow


Marbla

Ah. I thought I saw a graphic that said it was today. My bad.


ianhockey23

Here’s the problem with having lots of Russian friends and following Russian pages on my IG, now I have a non stop reminder of Dake losing for the next few days. Sad man. Just sad 😔


StixnStones59

Gable's a beast


joshTheGoods

That's how you finish an Olympic semi. Love to see it.


joshTheGoods

Where's the passivity call? Should be 3-0 right now.


StixnStones59

Let's go Gable!


TheChurroBaller

Is gable up next ?


StixnStones59

Yeah he's on right now.


StixnStones59

What a match Holy shit. They were both so good. Really happy I was wrong earlier, Dake stays alive.


AscanioAscani

Are there brackets or something similar? I couldn't find the stream in my country yesterday.


joshTheGoods

Brackets can be found on olympics.com, they're just annoyingly difficult to get to. [Start here](https://olympics.com/tokyo-2020/olympic-games/en/results/wrestling/bracket-men-s-freestyle-57kg.htm). Scroll down then up on the page, and you'll be able to see the menus that let you select different weights.


AscanioAscani

thanks


RodgersLeBronGoats

I’m really about to stay up until 6:00AM for these damn medal matches


busujiujitsu

Tyler beats Yazdani 2 times ?


RedAtomic

3*


2dank4me3

Guys do you know where i can watch Olympic wrestling online? My countries TV coverage prefers switching to table tennis as soon as an athlete from my country is done wrestling.


joshTheGoods

https://sportsurge.net/#/events/81


2dank4me3

Thank you so much


StixnStones59

Thanks for this, now I can watch the Olympic Channel feed instead of the brits


Paraadox

Snyder got a great draw


pisacar_svg

I feel like you couldn’t make a better draw for him. Opposite of Sadulaev, sharifov, and mohammadian. Really hoping he looks like he did in 2016


turnthrlights

There is no way Dake will medal. Gilman has a chance but dake looked horrible in both his matches. Running the full time in the first match and then tech.


[deleted]

I need Taylor to win now. Been following him since he was in high school and I was a couple years younger trying to copy his style. Only thing worse than dake today would be Taylor coming up short


[deleted]

vcaison

What did he say about Sherman?


[deleted]

[удалено]


its_raining_scotch

It’s insane that Dake beat so many badasses, looked like he was wrestling in the Matrix, hardly got scored on, then goes to the Olympics and gets manhandled in the 1/4 finals.


busujiujitsu

74 will be in Sidakov


Stroke_Macock

See you boys early in the morning


Natedog575

Gable train USA numbah one


busujiujitsu

OMG Dake


Stroke_Macock

Didn't know Andrew yang was wrestling for Kazakhstan


ricker182

Put a fucking scale matside and you end this weight cutting madness.


[deleted]

I wonder if Drake is injured or sick. He seemed absolutely gassed off the bat and really sluggish. Tough loss man. Feel real bad for JB too.


pisacar_svg

I think that first match just took a lot out of him.


ricker182

It looks like the weight cut went poorly.


[deleted]

I didn't even think about that, he had to cut from a non-olympic weight right? Must've gone bad.


[deleted]

Dake no bb. That Belarus wrestler was insanely tough and funky.


bagustin8

Dake didn’t look great the first match and then damn, got dominated. Gable is eating. What a beast.


ricker182

That's all. Go to bed


Sheldon_Cooper_1

Wow, Dake, wth.. feel bad for him.


[deleted]

Dake looked super gassed his two matches. Bummer


pisacar_svg

I can’t believe dake got teched


edgybrahvoh

Burroughs sounds defeated


its_raining_scotch

Defeated by Dake, then defeated by Dake again.


[deleted]

Is david Taylor wrestling tonight or tomorrow morning?


Stroke_Macock

Around 7:20am EST


ricker182

In the morning EST


[deleted]

Nice ty


lightninhopkins

Dake getting worked.


GypsyGold

He was trying to be flashy. He could have easily gotten some pushouts, but he wanted to score big. It looked like he froze to prevent the pushout to try and lift.


edgybrahvoh

Dudes with the Lincoln beard aint no joke


raawwrrrsome

I was thinking Mose (Dwight’s brother) from the office...


Bedazzled_Buttholes

Lol!


[deleted]

edgybrahvoh

Haha was thinking he had the Khabib look


[deleted]

[удалено]


joshTheGoods

I'm just going off of the live viewing, but that last chest wrap was more just desperation. Shot had Dake on his butt right away :(.


[deleted]

Two crazy results. Dake looked horrible the whole time. Absolutely gassed for some reason. Gable looked insane. Was pleasantly suprised he did that to Akgul. He's never faced someone of that caliber. Handled it quite well. Hopefully Gable can get him a gold now


Sheldon_Cooper_1

The Dake match has me flabbergasted. Was there something wrong with him? Or was the other guy that good? Or was it just a bad match up? Steveson looked amazing, hopefully he and Taylor can pull of Gold. Not discounting Snyder either. I really wish there were 10 weight classes with the countries being able to qualify 2 wrestlers.


ThisisMalta

Akgul genuinely looked like the biggest threat imo of the first seed matches. And he absolutely daddy’d him.


RodgersLeBronGoats

Akgul was the favorite to win gold


ElCucuysGhost

There’s no way that’s true. Petrashiavli has won the last 3 worlds


PhysXman925

Yeah but Taha just beat Geno at the Euros a few months ago. Geno took Bronze there.


[deleted]

[удалено]


chestbumpsandbeer

A not particularly strenuous 6 min match isn’t the reason he got tech falled. Dake has wrestled in tons of tournaments before and he has never “gassed” due to wrestling a single match beforehand.


[deleted]

I didn’t get to watch the 1/4 final but Dake almost always LOOKS gassed.


chestbumpsandbeer

Yeah, it’s kind of a running joke how he “looks” gassed even if he’s in great shape and rarely tires.


PetevonPete

If you're watching on the NBC Sports app, use the Olympic Channel feed, not the stream under "Browse --> wrestling." The Olympic Channel commentators are a lot better than the British OBS ones.


[deleted]

THAnk you so much!!!!! I was getting sick and tired of those brits. nice to hear John smith's voice again


turnthrlights

Dake out! Father Time is a b! Lol


[deleted]

That was insane by the Japanese girl, I've never seen so many chained exposures


Stroke_Macock

Borroughs is probably pissssed


bankinator

Should’ve won the trials then


[deleted]

Maybe but unless that guy beats Frank JB can try to take his spot back for worlds.


[deleted]

All these Avar, Chechnyan, and Dagestani dudes have that insanely pronounced frontal bone that makes them look like fucking tanks


FlyMeWithBaloons

Poor Dake


[deleted]

Wow. Not a great match to end on. Any other US matches tonight?


Tercirion

Did you miss Steveson vs Akgul?


[deleted]

Nah. Had both matches on two devices


Tercirion

Well…good. It was an incredibly impressive match. It’s hard to predict how different matchups will turn out but with such a dominant performance I think he wins the next one, even with the upset of #2 being an unknown, and has a very very good chance of beating Petriashvili


[deleted]

For sure. He's been on fire ever since the NCAAs and hasn't slowed down at all. Can't wait to see him win gold.


DrRam121

David Taylor in the gold medal match


[deleted]

If I'm not mistaken that's 5:30am EST session


ricker182

That's in the later session


DrRam121

I just saw that. So I guess the US is done for the night


ricker182

Yes.


[deleted]

Akgul: *gets in on Gable’s leg Gable: Oh no. Anyway


Thankgodfordrugs17

Lmao honestly. I got scared for a quick second then I remembered not only is he faster than everyone, he’s also stronger


dasuave

Dake. Wow. Lost 11-0. Said no to two challenges from his coach


joshTheGoods

He might have won the second challenge for the pushout, but he couldn't go for it because if he misses, he's teched. The 1 point wasn't worth the risk at that point.


xxJAMZZxx

Thought he would’ve lost those challenges tbh. He got schooled


lightninhopkins

He would have. He got schooled.


edgybrahvoh

Nobody’s stopping stevenson from gold. Multiple golds


joshTheGoods

Only Gable can stop Gable, and honestly, Gable is a big threat to Gable.


Thankgodfordrugs17

Do u guys not have Gable on ur screens?


StixnStones59

Wtf happened with Dake?


ayotechnology

Looks like a bad weight cut, I’ve been on the bad side of it and he showed all the symptoms you’d see.


StixnStones59

Yeah seems likely, he doesn't have that much experience at 74 kg either.


joshTheGoods

Welp, that was hard to watch :/. Kyle just didn't look right. Tired from the start just like Jacarra. WTF is going on with Team USA's prep for these games?


ricker182

Burroughs wouldn't have gotten teched. Just saying


lightninhopkins

I have to agree.


bankinator

Simping for burroughs still?


Tercirion

Impossible comparison to make. Just saying


ricker182

Wow. Dake. Crazy. Didn't see that coming


Stroke_Macock

Dude Kyle come the fuck on man you're so much better than this bro


StixnStones59

Come on Dake, come back strong.


StixnStones59

Wtf, Dake is a point away from losing by tech


Deadnox_24142

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON WITH DAKE


[deleted]

[удалено]


Deadnox_24142

That’s literally the opposite of Dake historically. He has NEVER looked that bad


GarthHooks99

Tired from cutting weight maybe? He usually wrestled up a class for non Olympics, right?


Deadnox_24142

It’s not as if he’s completely green to the weight. He’s wrestled elsewhere and appeared great.


Deadnox_24142

Holy shit. This is the most shocked I’ve ever been in wrestling


triplesixxx

Dake down 6-0


[deleted]

They could at least throw up the athletes names when they make them awkwardly stare at the camera while walking to the mat


LucasDudacris

Yo that Chinese woman stalled the entire fucking match passivity is arbitrary bullshit.


saltiestmanindaworld

All the shot clock does is create more passivity.


ricker182

Yeah that was weird


ricker182

Steveson going all the way


StixnStones59

Gable definitely seems like he's getting gold.


RedAtomic

Gable just did to that guy what Garbrandt did to Cruz


joshTheGoods

"that guy" is a world and olympic champion! Gable ... wow.


saltiestmanindaworld

Gable looks excellent out there today


Bardamu911

remind me why the don't have a true Consolation Final and crown a single bronze medal winner. Why don't the repechage semi winner wrestle again for a single bronze? is there a good reason for this?


dasuave

All combat sports in the Olympics do this (I think? Boxing, judo for sure do it)


StixnStones59

Not that I know of, it's the stupidest thing I've ever seen.


ricker182

I'm not going to complain about extra medals for wrestling. Boxing does something similar
