3 takedowns to none. THESE guys don't get tired.

That first one was CRAZY fast/smooth

Anyone know how he got knocked off? I havent been following the wrestling a ton but from what I know he was one of the favorites here

Japanese wrestler dominated him in the semi's.
Oh yeah, and Cejudo beat the Japanese.

Correction: Cejudo DOMINATED the Japanese.

Who dominated the Russian... who dominated the world for the last 2 years...

so yea, Team USA Freestyle may be doing it real big this year.

Like virtually everyone else watching the feeds, I missed Kudukhov / Japan semi. Is there a way to re-watch it? Cause Kudukhov looked so unbeatable in the matches I saw, would love to see how the Japanese wrestler dominated him so thoroughly...

they will have the feed back up and rewind it, like 3-4 hours from now on nbcolympics.com, you'll have to skip ahead to it though.

And he dominated by FALL, I believe in the 2nd period.

actually, if you are watching the feed, in related videos select the preliminary competition video... not sure which mat it was on or how far in, you'll have to skip around to find it. Not even worth it though... like watching a Novice tournament champion versus a Olympic silver medalist, for real.

ya watched it..it was a great match
first round around 6-7 seconds left its 0-0 besik goes for a head pinch, he falls on his back and the jap holds him their 3-0
second round he ducks under and scores out of bounds. Besik takes a shot after but has on arm trapped the japanese guy pancakes him and launches him to his back and pins him..it was a good match

Dominated the Japanese? Cejudo did have a good second round, however the first round was controversial at best. And as for team USA freestyle doing it real big this year; Schwab: No wins Zadick: Not even a point Askren: Beat a nobody from Hungary then got killed by Fundora.

I predict that Hrovat and Cormier will get handled as well. So no Team USA freestyle is not doing it real big this year.
