**Paris Olympic Wrestling**
- Thread starter WildTurk
- Start date
Today's "Who Pooped In My Pants?" award goes to Mariya Stadnik (Azerbaijan) for losing on late takedown, pouting, then bitching and screaming at her coach. I'm guessing her coach must be her husband.

JFC could they stretch this wrestling coverage out any more? Spent the last 10 minutes watching the celebration of a single GR weight results. Move the sh*t along.
That’s everything at the Olympics. Check out swimming and track. The amount of time between heats is crazy long. Shouldn’t need to be more than a couple minutes. Those are two events I’d love to watch in person someday but I can’t fathom the long wait in the stadium and arena.
I bet you would unload on someone. You can't hold it in..
Amit Elor v Zhu finals coming up now
Nothing yet. Zhu on clock. Td & clock makes it 3-0 Elor. Break. Elor is getting to her underhook, but hasn't done much with it yet.
2nd period:
Tie ups and hand fighting, still 3-0 1 min to go. Zhu looking for big move. Nothing.
Elor wins 3-0.
Olympic champ

GOOOOOLLLLDDDD! At 20 way to go Elit! Awesome job.
Pretty typical. She doesn't ever really make a high volume of attacks. Her entire style is based on ridiculously good fundamentals, positioning, and handfighting.
She's got to be the most exciting "boring" wrestler out there - an absolute masterclass, even if she doesn't always make the scoreboard spin
She doesn't attack legs often, but typically is more aggressive when she gets the underhook. Clearly the Olympic Finals is a whole different situation and she wrestled a smart, tactical match.
Obviously a big deal and huge congratulations but what a boring style. I thought I was watching women's Greco Roman.
Usually, she's able to ragdoll opponents more so it looks more fun, but she does not attack legs at all.
It was probably the only time they ever watched her wrestle.
I would agree if this were a throwaway match at the Grandview Open,
Peacock has replay for all events for a limited time even though you know the outcome obviously.Thanks everyone. Just didn't follow through, and yes I pay for Peacockmad
On the other hand, maybe you WERE kissing cousins? (How is your spouse related to your ex?)
Coach Chun should give Amit a call. "Would you like to train with Kylie Welker and Kennedy Blades? And get an education in beautiful Iowa City? And be four-time national champ?"
Since when do you get replaced when you miss weight?
Parrish brutalized and pinned by Japan. Didn’t look competitive from the whistle. Fujinami just too good.
Since UWW cares about not getting dropped from the Olympics.
Obviously this has never happened in our sport, but I dig it.
Does this mean they redraw ALL the results including the repechage? Of course not, but that’s the extreme conclusion to this logic.
They’re punishing her as if she failed a doping test.
Weigh ins are 4.5 hours before competition instead of the typical 2 hours. Between this and redrawing the bracket for a missed second day weigh in, seems like there should be more consistency with world and Olympic competitions.
Doesn't matter how little she missed the weight by. Rules are rules
Yea, reminds me a bit of the gambling fiasco. I may or may not agree with the rule, but it's the punishment that I diagree with most here. They knew the rule and I assume the consequence, but that's harsh punishment.
