Cameraman had a great shot of the Michigan bench when Steveson locked the cradle, but then panned down. Wish he kept it on the bench to see the reactions.
I remember my older brother he wrestled for Weber St as HWT and was on his way to being the best in the world Alexander actually told him that next year your going to beat me after he won 3-2 but My brother got hurt on his way to training camp in a car accident and ended his wrestling career. but the love of wrestling never dies...
anyone who has a problem with Gable returns needs to remove their Support for Aaron Brooks and Carter, also Otool. These guys only have four national titles because of Covid. Carter is going for his fifth title because of Covid. And took a big payout to wrestle this year. Wait a minute Greg wouldn't even wrestle this year if it wasn't for Covid. Weird double standard in the sport
Can always tell in the comments who was a terrible wrestler in school and didn’t wrestle at a high level 😂 yet they say things like that’s unsportsmanlike blah blah blah
Did he work hard? Gable is probably one of the most naturally talented wrestlers that ever lived, but in his arrogance he assumed that because he's good at one thing, he's good at everything and chased the dollar signs (WWE/NFL). He rode natural talent and found something he's good at, but unlike Cael or his namesake Dan Gable, he didn't work hard, didn't face obstacles, and this will never convert it to true greatness. Gable will be forgotten in less than a generation. Unfortunate.
@@b.t.8879you’re either trolling, or have zero clue what you’re talking about. You don’t become Olympic champion with talent alone. Guaranty he has worked harder than anyone you know to get to where he is.
I remember the last time they wrestled in High school at Simley and if memory serves Gable won 3-2 . Should be a good match but Greg has to score . He hasn't gotten a takedown maybe since high school if then . I can't recall Greg taking him down ever but I could be wrong. Last time in college Greg scored 3 escape points
@@gregz1235 don't bet the farm on it. Greg has to get a takedown on him . Never seen it happen before and my kids wrestled in some of the same tournaments those boys did at Simley and Apple Valley. Greg won't have a strength advantage or as athletic at Gable so I'm not liking the chances of the Olympic champ losing
@gregz1235 last the ims they wrestled Gable took him down 3 times with current scoring would of been a 9-3 win . I like Greg and a follower . He was a 4 time State champ like Gable with Smiley being a 2A School and Valley being a 3A school . But the biggest dual of the state every year was Simley and Valley in those days . Standing room only , Gable beat Greg 3-2 the last time they wrestled in high school. Escape points won't beat Gable is what I'm saying
Psu heavyweight got huge too! But crazy showed up with these massive guns. Probably got them from buffalo. Good luck to everyone! I doubt psu heavyweight beats him. But anything is possible
Literally no one knows who you are. Folks will speak about Gable for decades. You name yourself “Kingalphadogg”, brag about 95-96, and then talk about being humble. Get a life.
The haters in comments section gone hate . College and high school Wrestling needs to grow it’s been time for someone with some personality to be in college wrestling.
Yesh I had to pause it after the cradle. He's definitely building his WWE Persona now. He's really going be hated after he wins the UFC HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE. I give him 3yrs tops, then walks into WWE as the newest badest dude on the planet.
I’m new to this sport. They should put a cage around the the mat. What’s all this running away and resetting once you leave the circle? It’s not practical and very strange.
Outside the circle is out of bounds. Wrestling is a technical sport. Though there's no cage it's got a smallish perimeter. Watch some film, especially lighter weight kids & the movement between 2 great wrestlers is like movie choreography. Watch Kyle Dake vs David Taylor.
It’s good from a tactical standpoint, as you can get push out points (in freestyle), or wrestle near the edge and go out in case you feel danger coming. From a safety standpoint, blast doubling someone into a cage can be dangerous.
Gable is settimg himself up for a crazy upset loss coming back like this, showboating, etc.; anybody can lose in this sport if your not focused & here is how.....
Yeah the Olympic champ doesn't know what it means to finish I'm sure ....lol he hasn't lost in 6 years but you keep dreaming . Maybe he will get injured to make your dreams come true . Good luck 👍
yeah it is less than an olympic gold but I mean he was let go from football and WWE. I mean might as well try and get another title. Maybe it'll open more door for him etc.
The celebration at the end wasn’t bad or unsportsmanlike. He was pumping up the crowd which is a good idea to get the crowd involved. It was unsportsmanlike like to stick his young out while pinning his opponent.
Yojiro Uetake was undefeated in college, for all you young men who think Cael did it first. Logan Steiber has four titles and went 119-3. Both of those guys, along with Cael and Dake, will have better college careers than Steveson. There is also the original Gable who only had one loss, where Steveson will finish with two losses if he goes undefeated this year.
Against a smaller, freshman gable. Cassar was a senior. Not to say it couldn’t happen again, but gable has much more experience at the senior level now.
Call me crazy but I don't think Kirk pulling out a win isnt unimaginable. Gable been out the rooms for a while & Kirk has been in the PSU room this whole time. This is how upsets happen🤷
@@blacklabsociety4876 They both wrestled Harley Andrews. Gable made it look so much easier. Gable wrecks him from neutral, and Greg won't be able to hold him down like he done to the others.

do you want the sport to stay alive or what? you do know that most wrestling programs lose money for their institutions, right? putting on a show draws ticket sales and helps the sport grow
I would agree under any normal circumstance but that Michigan heavy weight ain’t any better if not worse from what he’s done in the past so I would let it slide this time
@@m003100 It's been four years since his Olympic Gold Medal. He won the U.S Open then decided to not wrestle at the 2024 Olympic trials (highly suspect). Did a stint in the NFL and WWE all rampant with PED's. And I never said anything about athleticism or agility. I said he looked massive. He's much bigger than he was before.
Earth to dummy , Gable got cut just before the start of the season in the final cut by the Bills . Ever think maybe that is why he didn't wrestle in the Olympic trials????? Hard to do both at the same time I suspect
@@TimAllen-fs2rg He said in an NBC interview that he intended to Wrestle in Paris 2024. he messed around in the WWE and used PED's and knew he was going to get popped. So he changed his direction to the NFL where he had a better chance of getting away with PED use. His last WWE match was in January of 2024. Not enough time to test clean for the Olympic trials.
@@TimAllen-fs2rg Just in case you don't understand. He made the decision not to wrestle i the Olympics before deciding to go to the Bills. He did this because he is on PED's. He needs to be tested.
Come on let’s be real wrestling is a dying sport because of this showmanship stuff let’s get the crowd into let’s get chippy during rival matches also let open up more scholarships to the team
I thought he put his shoes on the Matt and retired...always been a classless winner, doesn't represent wrestling well. What a poor representation of wrestling, great job Gable
One of the greatest heavyweights in history. Enjoy this special talent while it lasts.
The greatest by far, especially if we are just talking college
He’s not human. Cradling the #10 ranked HWT in the country is not normal 😂.
Make wrestling fun, no problem with getting crowd into it. Football players are celebrating every first down.
He’s turning heel boys
😁 I thought the same thing
Yup, loving it lowkey...
How is he still in college that’s crazy. The man was in wwe, an played for the bills wth
This man is very good. I can’t see him losing not to mention his overseas experience.
Didn’t he leave his shoes on the mat a few years back. I’m confused.

Bet u couldn’t get to his legs
There are so many other things to say and you chose that? Kind of say more about you.
He shouldn’t be wrestling in college is that more clear?
Why is that? Too good? He isn't breaking the rules and was approved by the NCAA @@outdooraddictionpa8218
Lmao you act like any star college athlete actually takes classes. Give me a break

Show a little class, Gable .
I mean he's the 2020 Summer Olympic gold medalist. I'd say that he can do what he wants.
He’s a Olympic gold medalist college wrestling is to easy for him
Who is this gable Ferrari hehe
Not a fan of the in match antics, just my opinion, but after the win go get you some.
It’s unfair he’s a monster 😂😂. Poor heavyweight division they have no chance.
He wasn’t ready.
Steveson is a great wrestler and seems like a good, friendly person. But I thought he left his shoes on the mat years ago.
He has one more year of eligibility. He did want to leave but WWE left him and so did the football team. So I guess he decided to come back.
Ive been wrestling like this before Gable was born at the 215lb class and hwt, dating back to 1995-96.
Update: ...but I was humble with class.

Lol even Kerkvliet can’t beat him and that’s the closest opponent who could even score on him potentially
@gladiatorking2.0envoyofthe95 agreed . Hard to beat a guy you can't score on
Gable is on a different level, he is a once in a generation wrestler.
@@gladiatorking2.0envoyofthe95 exactly. Escape points won't beat Gable . And with 3 pt takedowns Gable will have a real advantage to score some points
Dan Gable would be embarrassed!
The guy who put "X"s all over their gear when they were going for their 10th straight championship wouldn't like a little showmanship?
No it’s just dumb he came back to college wrestling. No point.
I doubt it .
why is he back in college? Isnt winning a NCAA title so less than a Olympic Gold?
NIL is no joke
yeah it is less than an olympic gold but I mean he was let go from football and WWE. I mean might as well try and get another title. Maybe it'll open more door for him etc.
He's back because he's a narcissist.
@ Olympic gold payout is $37,500... you think he's getting paid less than that to return to college wrestling?
@@KevinStetka Crazy accusation to make
Common he makes his opponents look like wet noodles
Hello haters
IMO Gable Steveson is the third greatest wrestler in NCAA history, only behind Kyle Dake and Cael Sanderson
You forgot about Jo Big
The celebration at the end wasn’t bad or unsportsmanlike. He was pumping up the crowd which is a good idea to get the crowd involved. It was unsportsmanlike like to stick his young out while pinning his opponent.
Brooks has been and was WAY more dominant than Steveson when careers put against each other

@@magicalfrijoles6766Woah... I been lied to my whole life???

I'm just going to say it. Steveson is massive. Much bigger than before and during his gold medal run. I suspect PED use.
