However that Gold Medal hanging around Henry's neck I imagine will be a pretty large confidence booster going forward against future opponents.
Not to mention, if he lost every match for the rest of his career, he's still an Olympic Gold Medalist.

Does Cejudo still have college eligibility? He would dominate 125.

As per usual, Big goes too far. The title of the thread should have read:
"Cejudo is Olympic Champ."

He has the potential to be the best 125 lber. I don't think he would dominate because he has been training a different style. He has also shown no interest in NCAA wrestling and I think the success he has had in Beijing reinforces this.

He was a beast in high school folkstyle. It would be a shame if he didnt at least give college a try. He could pick any school he wanted and get an education while he's at it. He does have 4 years til his next olympics.

If he is really interested in education, he can still go to college somehwere near Colorado Springs and continue to train at the OTC.
Collegiate wrestling is not the ideal situation if the main purpose of college is education.

There is no allure to winning a national title if you have already won a world title. I don't look for him to go to college. Plus think of all the money he would be turning down if he were to chose college.

it was interesting after he won the gold he went to shake the other coaches hand and the guy slapped henry's hand really hard and then pointed and henry and was shouting at him as henry walked away. would love to have heard what he was yelling.
Henry is the baddest man on the planet! sorry joe.

If he wants to excel even more in freestyle wrestling, he should without a doubt don't go to college. Being an Olympic is a million times better than being a 4x NCAA Champion. Also, right when a Russian finishes highschool he goes straight away training for international level. They wouldn't go to college and wrestle.
