This match was scored correctly. Including the standing reversal. Super competitive match. Dake made a mistake putting a leg in, a position which Taylor defended very well. Did not make that mistake again.
Yeah, like on the mat that would maybe be two because he had a cow catcher but in the air Taylor still had dake’s leg. At the end it would’ve been 2 if they were in bounds but they weren’t, terrible call.
Sorry for old reply but you do not need to return the guy to the mat in order for it to be a reversal. As long as you're rear standing or even in a merkle position it will be called a reversal. Reversals are not the same as takedowns. I thought the same back in 2013 but now that I know more about the rules I understand why it was called a reversal. It's just people who don't understand wrestling who want to attack referees because somehow they think they know more than them.
he got 2 for acquisition of "myrkle" position! not for after the roll through!! you guys do not know wrestling well enough to make these comments you can tell because the ref is already making the reversal motion a full second before they go out of bounds
Honestly I think they scored it right you could interpret as not a point but if you slow it down Dake was in scoring position and it looked to me as if Taylor's hand touched the ground while his foot was still in, if he didn't do that there would be no point.
Dake is the greatest collegiate wrestler ever because he won 4 titles in 4 different weight classes.BUT, that was not a reversal. Maybe at most give him the escape point. Also Taylor should have received the 1 point escape at the end. Taylor snowed a lot of class.
Nobody knows how Taylor was ever bested by Dake. Watching Taylor wrestle ANYONE else you would assume Dake had no chance. Now Taylor is an Olympic gold medal winner and Dake a 4X NCAA champion has never won an Olympic gold. Burroughs standing on the poor guys neck for a decade may have blocked any chance he had. I believe he made it to Tokyo and got teched 11-0.
