@drummersantana Boxing is pretty hard, and hockey, and water polo too, but i also wrestled and it is really hard to be good at

@6:12 Gutches shows you how to do it right. Just a beautiful example of how to throw without thinking and just reacting to the situation. Great match.

I hope everyone understands that, the guy in the blue, has the ability to walk into MMA and take the top 2 belts. That's a fact that no one with any knowledge will dispute. His style leans itself to no rules combat. That unstoppable head and heal, means he has incredibly strong and fast hands.

@87elway Happy New Year to you as well! I have wrestled freestlye for many years and it's just frustrating how it's "all out" on your feet then it slows down when somebody gets taken down...you might not see it that way, but that's the way I see it. Folkstyle forces you to get up, where as freestlye, all you got to do is hold on for a certain amount of time and you can get back on your feet w/o doing anything!

@MINIeminemFAN The point of the stalling on bottom is to produce more action from the feet. It is over in 15 seconds and allows even the fans to see a match full of action, not laying on the ground grabbing arm bars without ever getting a turn. I love folkstyle too, but apparently you haven't wrestled much freestyle. To each his own. Happy new year!

@spartanbob69 ur a total retard if you think wrestling is gay. u obviously have never tried if u did u would no its not. ur a trash talking immature peice of garbage

[MINIeminemFAN]

@87elway NAH....folkstyle is where it's at, how can you stall on the bottom and it's accepted...and exposing the back for a split second gives you points...that's my beef w/ freestyle.

I wrestled w/ Les at Oregon State when I was in High School...guy is a bad ass!!!

That was a great match. Les wrestled smarter. Cael gassed himself with all the shots. He gets in on the legs easy enough but Gutch was able to turn him and get that throw when Cael got a little too aggressive and went over top. It's one of those tough matches when being too aggressive didn't pay off. Either one of those guys would f up just about anyone out there though.
