Spencer Lee from Iowa wrestles Brandon Courtney from Arizona State for the 125-pound national title at the 2021 NCAA Wrestling Championships. Subscribe to the NCAA Championship RU-vid channel: ru-vid.com...
@The Best player He’s not far behind. Fortunately, for the Hawkeye fans, we won’’t find out. LOL. I bet it is an absolute war in the wrestling room between the 2 of them.
Check out his freshman year of college, I believe that was his most dominant year. Or you can check out when he won his 3rd junior world title that was a good match too!!!
With a healthy lee, this kid wouldn't have seen the end of the 2nd round. Still 7-0 in national championship match is an ass kicking. Im not taking anything away from the Arizona kid, because he absolutely deserves, and belongs there. Lee is just a different animal. His level is way above college wrestling.
@@thefives7ar funny, Spence has destroyed everyone in his weight class either through major, tech, or pins he would destroy daton easily and would beat Suriano too
@@tylerrodriguez-miller9648 Oh yea.. and he lost once in high school and he also lost as a pee wee wrestler but he never lost a NCAA championship match.
Nah. He just isn't taking the time (1 year) to shoot down. His 4 NCAA championship goal. The surgery itself is commonplace and takes 2 hours now. It's the healing time.
The goat of what ? what has he done ? have you heard of Aleksandr Karelin, Aleksandr Medved, Abdulrashid Sadulaev, etc.... ? Come on guys, american wrestling is a joke !
Most definitely not a Hawkeye fan but I give credit where credit is due. Lee takes the Hodge this year. There is nobody else this season that checks ALL of the boxes of the Hodges requirements for the trophy!
@@swankmaster2178 as good as he is, he has possibly the worst sportsmanship in the entire ncaa. Spencer lee barely even raises his hand when he wins he just gets off the mat and back to practice
@@swankmaster2178 I said he checked "ALL" boxes. Steveson has not checked "ALL" boxes. No way he get's it because he most definitely has demonstrated poor sportsmanship on multiple occasions. Being charged with "Sexual Assault" and suspended isn't going to help him either. That's the "Citizenship" box.
Difficult to comprehend the pressure this young man is under and how well he exceeds expectations. It was difficult to watch the interview at the end knowing how much pain he must be in with bad knees
To all the pro athletes....that is how a captain of a championship team is supposed to be, it’s never “me” it’s about the team! This is the type of person you want to captain whatever game you play. Super inspiring 😎👍
He has a really nice game plan and executes it almost flawlessly every match. Very few people will be able to stop it until he gets to the world stage.
That's a fucking champ right there. Could have easily let him up at the end and just circled for 10 seconds without any worry, but he wasn't gonna let him get even one point
It will be tragic if one of the greatest talents of all time is stopped in his tracks by bad ACL’s and knees. So impressive to win a NCAA Title in this fashion but I don’t know, Olympics is a different thing.
@@Ryan-qp4bl techs in freestyle come quick one leg lace you’re done in 10 secs good thing spencer can get those against USA guys the Russian might be a different story
@@Thefatcat125 I don’t know, I’m new to watching wrestling so I don’t know if Khabib is the best Russian wrestler ever but Khabib is certainly a good wrestler and technically from Russia, and I don’t see anything to tell me Spencer Lee isn’t as dominant.
Anybody that doesn't think this kid will get world class surgery is crazy and his drive for something he will re hibilitate and will a gold or two I'd bet a grand without hesistation
Imagine being Courtney watching this like damn... I just lost 6-0 to a dude with no acls, like I get it’s spencer and he’s insane but Courtney has worked his whole life at wrestling to end up losing to someone who says he couldn’t even wrestle out there, gotta be demoralizing😭😂
In 3 NCAA tournaments, Spencer has outscored his opponents, 60-4, 55-7 and 59-8. That is a 155 point difference. Totally unbelievable. 3 down, 1 to go!
@@TJ_Gonser yes all seniors this year get another year of eligibility if they chose to come back. Spencer Lee has already said he’s coming back during the Big Ten ships
With his exceptional combination of ability, skill, technique, strength, and attitude Spencer has proven that he can wrestle aggressively and dominate at the highest level rather than be neutralized by strong defense and attack/counter attack strategies. As a wrestling relic from 50 years ago, I never believed dominance with such flair at this level was possible - till now.
Courtney should actually wrestle to win and not to have a goal of not being majored..There is no easier wrestler to let it fly on than Spencer Lee who is the best in the sport..People are talking will he major 100% of his opponents so you have absolutely nothing to lose..Let it fly Courtney because you didn't give yourself a chance to win running and stalling the entire match
Spencer lee usually isn’t super great in the 3rd period as he does a lot of his work in the 1st period. He’s been that way for a while and that’s partially how desanto beat him in highschool. Kept it close and took it to the 3rd, then got after it
