he did not get full of himself. Thats the Iowa style of wrestling be aggressive and move forward. The goal is to outmatch, out technique, and out work your opponent and most of all be more aggressive.
brands broke him and made him look like a little baby!
every wrestler gets caught. its just a matter of how u do when u get caught. brands showed what the iowa mentality is all about. Gilbert looked like a little girl after the match
brands doesnt have the spirit? learn about hawkeye wrestling, losers! tom is a hall of fame wrestler, and what are the guys there gonna say? we're taking him out of the hall of fame because ppl didnt like him on utube? learn about stuff, man!
I've known Joey since he was in grade school my little brother wrestled him and i wrestled jack griffin joey was an awsome wrestler but an arrogant ass all the way through highschool and in grade school he used to wear this big pimp hat before all his matches.
Haha! Brands, not a champ in spirit!? Are you kiddin' me!? He's the definition of wrestling "spirit." Wow..get over it, it wasn't a pin, he came back from a 5pt deficit like a madman and got to a point in the match where he was straight up dominating Gilbert...
Yeah Gilbert was the champ...if champ of this tourney. if champ is defined by the ability of NOT finish of your opponent when he is locked up and NOT holding a 5-0 lead, and CRAWLING out of bounds and being PULLED back in my your ankle and looking like a complete HIGH SCHOOLER. Bottom line..great wresters get caught..Brands got caught...Gilbert should have perserve a freakin 5-0 lead!
completely agree. in the beginning, i was watching without bias. then i saw how poor of a sport brands was and wanted to see his ass get pinned. champion by record, but not in spirit.
The second and third periods were irrelevant, because Tom Brands was PINNED.
Everyone knows Tom Brands was a hell of a technician and at the highest level of condition, but he was also a poor sport and classless ass.
We all know Joe Gilbert had that pin and he was the Big 10 Champ in 1991! Tom Brands, in his heart, KNOWS it too! How many lights did you count Tom? :)
everyone knows that? I saw the first period and I am unaware. he wasnt pinned. you should give joey gilbert a plack for being the guy you thought should have won. because the refs and the score thought different
Wow, he totally broke Gilbert. Hey, everybody talks about Brands being intense, and of course he is. But he is also one heck of a technician. I don't know if he gets as much credit as he deserves for that.
Brands Still Was Pinned! bogus refs!
