Burroughs in the Gold Medal Match

[JayC]

Now that's more like it!

Haze did have a tough draw. I'm left to wonder how Cejudo would have done at this Olympics had he won the trails.

Great news.....and believe it's televised.

The time shown on www.nbcolympics.com is 7:48 London time which I believe to be 1:48 Central Time. I expect that it will be webcast at the nbc website.

And it looks like on NBC channel 5 too, 1:45pm

Burroughs was a lot more conservative than I expected but when he decided to pull the trigger at the end of both periods he scored easily with that Darned Double!

His double leg was UNstoppable. I was really impressed with his first period win in the semis vs the Russian, down 1-0 he hit the TD, right into a leg lace, AND then got the push-out for the 3-1 first period win. Awesome.

I took the liberty of assigning that train double of his a theme song:

Cejudo's fire is gone. The real question is how would Nick Simmons, whom I believe took a bronze last year at World's, have done? Haze ha always had Simmons despite Simmons being probably the better international competitor of the 2.

I thought the same thing James. Simmons is the better international wrestler, i dont think I've ever seen Haze wrestle well at a international competion. He is tought, Haze that is, but Simmons is far better with turns.
