Shouldn't he be starving somewhere on the street?

Nobody scored a point on him. He scored at least 6 points in each match. Job well done fellow communist! I predict a top 3 finish at Olympics. Leader Kim is proud of you!

Yeah so much for the US conspiracy to push FILA to drop the lightest 2 weights in hopes of relinquishing North Korea's monopoly and to prevent those commie bastards from having any future success in wrestling!

Big

I heard leader Kim ordered an extra bowl of rice each day to every wrestler to bulk up for the new weights.

ODH

Drat those Commies! Foiled agaon by the Dear Leader.

I'm missing something here -isn't Korea the home of Tae Kwan Doe ? Their martial arts program is second to none so it seems logical that the same fighting spirit would cross over to wrestling and what does being a communist have to do with wrestling . I am quite sure Escobedo never asked Ness if he were a republican ?

Big

payton,

North Koreans used to be good at two weights, 105 and 114.5, both of which were dropped after a North Korean won Olympics in Atlanta. Kind of suspicious don't you think considering USA has never done well at this weight outside of 84 Olympics?


That's why all the humor.

that's an utterly ridiculous theory.

Big

It would be a ridiculous theory BUT for the reason given, aka people are getting bigger. People might be getting bigger in America but not really in Asia or in Yakutia.

Half of the population is probably small-sized like in Asia and Africa. Asians have trouble finding good HWTs for example. Why not cancel HWT? Because the West controls Olympics.

Big ,

Don't you feel that since Americans eat more red meat than any nation in the world -and as the grandson of a farmer , I can tell you every single ,cow ,chicken and pig in the states are fed steroids and growth hormones from the day they are born .
And I'm not talking about obese americans -I am talking about these humongous corn fed kids running around . I mentioned in an earlier post that I was one of the first people in my high school to bench 200 10x-now they have 3and 400 lb clubs . Double the weight in 30 years .

Big

When I got to college and started eating all that food in cafeterias I gained 100 pounds in 5 years. I bet those steroids played a part in it.
