USAW has rescinded the 250 mile radius rule that says an athlete must live within the 250 miles to practice at that specific RTC…
this is kind of amusing when you look at the shenanigans that have transpired in the NIL world in the last few months and some kids training outside that radius and some other kids and their parents being very vocal about some schools actually following the rules and not allowing (or paying for said athlete and his brother and his cousin) to come train and blaming that for not making an age level team…
USAW did/does not want to actually look into any of these rule violations because they are scared to death of bringing anything that could be construed as negative attention to anyone for anything inside of USAW…
semenov with two turns and schultz reverses and then jumps front head but can not get anything going… 5-1
back to leaning on each other in the center… and that is how the first ends…
pummeling picking up.. .schultz hanging tough waiting for second par terre…
semenov piut down… 5-2
schultz jumps front head and semenov just stands up n obig deal… at some point i would think schultz would realize that his front head does not work on anyone decent…
and the big boys start wearing down and just pummeling in the center with no real offensive attacks… 5-2 semenov is how it ends
beka big nhead and arm for 4 and qatar comes up out oin to[p… 4-2 beka
qatar jumps front head and bekla gets a little too low and qatar snap down and go behind… 4-4… gets beka min the air and throws OOB for another 2… 6-4 qatar… 1:30 left
beka struggling to get anything going on the feet…
this could very easily be to see who rolls to the semis…
arm controlling the center… keeps fishing for elbow control… gets it and shucks bey over but no attempt to follow it up…
bey put down… 1-0 ARM
got the low lock and trying to push it over the top but bey defneds well…
ref getting on bey for head up…
1-0 at the break… encouraging…
we got the jazz hands by bey going… ARM controlling but probably not enoguh to avoid the passivity…
bey gets him put down… 1-1 arm ON CRITERIA
BEY HAVING TROUBLE GETTING THE LOCK… arm good job of scrubbing off the low lock…
ARM gets bey put down for the 3rd par terre… gets bey in the air belly to back but bey does a good job getting the momemtum back forward and avoids the throw…
bey gonna have to go get it last 45 seconds…
goes high dive late… bowls forward… nothing…
jumps front head but slips off…
goes flying squirrel and gets over the top but can’t control the body…
ref wants 4 for ARM but white paddled… still 1-1 ARM
bey calls for the YOLO brick…
2-1 after the lost challenge…
bey wrestled well, but, had no real meaningful offensive on the feet and that means it is going to be hard to beat amoyan…
semenov gets dropped by Finland on a late TD for the 3-3 criteria win…
ref would not shut up the entire match stopping it several times to be part of the show and was too busy yelling to follow proceudre and award a second period par terre… it would have gone to finalnd so no realy issue, but, damn dude, shut the hell up…
anyway, big takeaway is that schultz is officially out…
sweden takes a 4-0 lead over yoshida at 77kg… dog on a bone with the arm spins and hits one first half of the first with yoshida being so aggressive on the feet…
this could be huge…
yoshida still pushing hard at the begining of the second… takes swe to the edge and goes OOB… refs wants grounded… tables award 1… yoshida wanst two or 1-1… brick comes out…
challenge lost swe 5-1…
yoshida picks up 2 quick go behinds and it is tied 5-5 swe up on criteria… yoshida gets the step out to up 6-5 50 seconds left
iraq gets the gut… raney whizzers out of it and they are on the edge… raney does not get the reversal but does pick up a step out… 3-1
raney still with good pressure but no greco offense… 3-1 at the break…
irag pushing hard… raney with the drag and gets behind but irag scrambles out of it… raney keeps after it and gets the non controlled exposure but they keep scrambling and raney keeps getting the exposures and has him on his back in danger… ends up ripping IRQ shoulder apart and picks up the tech then the fall…
azizli just moving him all over the mat with slick technique… not trying to brawl… just calm redirects…
gets him i na chest wrap and then gets the go behind for 2…
gets one gut to go up 4-0…
raney getting warned for action… they put him down… 5-0
one gut 7-0… and he leaves it at that after losing his lock a bit…
wow… they take the turn off the board… back to 5-0… azizli will not be happy about that… he bailed on it after he got it…
lots of mat cleaning up…
waling next to each other raney much bigger physically…
that is how the first ends…
azizli just directing raney wherever he wants him to go with the collar tie any time raney tries to get an angle…
calling action red and azizli just directs him with the head… snapos himj down but they go OOB and no TD…
they put azizli down… 5-1 1:48 left
raney cant get a lock at all… tries half… arm bar… they give him all the time to work but enver close to scoring…
1:00 left
really interesting totally controlled match by azizli… he was never in danger at all and controlled the action 100% but took absolutely no chances at all… my guess is they took notice how scrappy raney is…
