Wow! The magic cold spray must have invigorated Gomez. I didn't expect to see that.
wonder if he got some of that bug going around? Regardless, not good. damn it
I wouldn’t go that far. Multiple guys capable of coming through the LCQ. But it certainly got harder
Can we get some of that spray they used on Gomez for Carter
That's crazy talk. If he has chosen 65, he's going to stay at 65.
Lol stop it. There is, and I say this with all due respect, 0 percent chance Zain makes the team at 74kg. At 65kg he’s plenty capable of both making the team and going and qualifying the weight.
That tournament is going to be insane, especially at that weight. You'd probably set the odds at around 10% to qualify for whoever wins the spot, if not lower. This is a crushing loss.
That's now 3 cycles in a row the 65/66 rep completely choked at Pan Ams. Both past reps failed to qualify at Last Chance (though Frank got in eventually due to a PED test). Brutal.
I’d probably go closer to 25 percent but yes I agree it will be difficult. Think Yianni and Zain can beat just about anyone on their day
I thought this was last qualifier. After reading comments. We got one more shot to qualify.
Now your comment makes more sense. Last Chance Qualifier will be after trials in Turkey, I believe.
I missed it, but Richards won his quarter easily. That's good news, at least.
I saw Richard's up 10-0 but gave up reversal trying to turn. So it went 10-1. Shouldn't it stop after he was up 10-0? Either way he still TF
RBY on deck.
Anyone know why they didn't restart after Gomez's injury time in par terre? Seems like a "procedural error in the sport" so we should call Cornell's law firm.

Yes true, Nick got td but never got a chance to turn. Should of went par terre

1st
1st
- 4:50 Jesus horsing RBY around a bit, scores a TD and a gut 4-0
- 4:30 Roman shoots and scores, and locks up his unorthodox rear-headlock thing and gets a turn before it's blown dead on a choke hold--Ven taking injury time. 4-4
- 3:40 Roman stuffs a shot and gets behind, and another of those turns while the guy was trying to tap out 8-4
- end
- 2:20 heavy on the head, a snap and go-behind 10-4
- :41 Jesus unhappy w/ how Roman is slowing things down with handfighting
- :10 Caution & 1 on Roman--I think on fingers? Not sure. 10-5
- Jesus gets a step-out at the buzzer 10-6

Because he can, and doesn't have to win US OTT to make the Olympics, would be my guess. He announced this over a year ago.
I think he knows it's a better path for him to make it to the Olympics. Just my 2 cents.
I'm not sure how, but Jesus looked to have considerable size on Roman. Didn't matter in the end, but that was an interesting bout.
If your goal is the Olympics, find the path of least resistance to get there.
And it's smart. If he makes the finals, he's in the Olympics. Same for Cruz wrestling for Puerto Rico. If Richards makes the finals, he might have only kept the seat warm for Gilman or Nico or Lee or Arujau or Fix.
RBY getting a guarantee he is the man to wrestle. Unlike USA (some weight classes) when top 4 or 5 can knock each other off on any given day.
When RBY was wrestling the Mexican chants were loud. I so wanted to be there and yell.. We Are
Because he wants to win the gold vs Spencer to remove all doubt on GIA.
I'm so glad they're doing that. Makes the tourney much more interesting, and for once, a true consolation bracket with real meaning!
So if there's a true 3rd for the last spot,then you don't qualify just by making the semis right? You would have to either make the finals, or win bronze plus win the true 3rd match
