21 Mar 2014 D1 NCAA Wrestling -Styles- The Funk Agree to Disagree

Wrestlers and fans

Would love to hear your opinions.

Is today’s wrestling that much different than 20 years ago?

What I remember growing up wrestling was shot after shot.

Going for single legs, double legs, fireman carry’s in the stand ups.

Today I see so much wasted time in hand grabbing, head smacking and wrist tie ups.

Looking for stalling points and push outs.

Where is the offense?

From the Top positions

When flattening out your guy where are the cross faces, the arm bars and half nelsons?

I want to see beast mode, the guys who are looking for the fall?

Bottom Positions

Switches, standup. MOVE

There is one guy who just doesn’t stop. David Taylor from Penn State. He is a animal. Logan Steiber has two falls and one Tech Fall, looking impressive as well.  Dylan Ness from Minnesota who was ranked 9th. Has pinned all three of his matches including the number one seed James Green from Nebraska.

Now that Ben “The Funk” Askren has transitioned into Mix Martial Arts. He is one of my favorite fighters and should be in the UFC. Wish him the best of luck in ONE FC.

Come with it. Eye of the Tiger Baby.
