It is crazy how many Russians are in the rankings at every weight.

On a totally unrelated note, how many Russian wrestlers, coaches and trainers in the Russian program were implicated in the Olympic doping scandal?

Russia is kind of ok at wrestling. Even crazier when you consider a bunch of the other ranked guys are former Russian transplants. At 65kg for example #1 and #11 are both Russians wrestling for other countries. That gives them 10 out of the top 11.

Why some years the Yasar Dogu tournament and Russian Nationals can be tougher to win than a World title.

Hamiti is the biggest threat to Carr IYAM. Kid should have been a Cyclone

Think if Gable would have decided legacy and representing the USA were equally as important as money and fake wrestling. He could’ve been apart of this once in a lifetime run

Burroughs wins #7. Giving him more world/Olympic golds than any American ever.

Goat wrestler and amazingly an even better person. Feel very fortunate to have been able to watch him and have him as the ambassador for our sport.

That's incredible. I think we've got some great coaches, but wish there was a way to get him involved in our program whether or not he's done. Unfortunately, not realistic. Congratulations to a GOAT.

We can’t get a guy to place at 65kg for almost 2 decades? And now have 2 Americans in the semi finals at worlds going against each other.

Also 9 of the 10 USA guys made the semi finals. 6 already in the finals and 3 more potentials with Gross, Yianni, Snyder.

Wasn’t sure where to put this but this is funny. Carter is a bit delusional and trying too hard to be Connor McGregor. In one sentence he is degrading JB’s accomplishments of winning another world title and his brags up his soon to be 5x NCAA championships. Uses air quotes to give JB the GOAT status. Then makes NCAAs sound like it’s not important and he’s not going to try for 5. Very contradicting interview

I really hope Mekhi takes him out this year. Mekhi is a much more likable guy that Cstar.

Shouldn’t they ban the Russians like FIFA and UEFA did?
Hit them where it hurts.
