I know man, it's freaky... and he's muscular but not overly powerful looking... he reminds me of that farmer strength some of my friends had from moving bails and milk cans, moving livestock and shoveling manure since childhood. They just grab stuff and up it goes. Their back strength is ridiculous. That lift Dake does requires technique but as you pointed out, there's just no doing that without immense natural power. It kind of gets me laughing while watching it happen.
@@bobklein1665 you know...the ref is yelling at takatani in English...does he even speak English likely? If not he's talking to dead air...I notice the refs yell at all the foreigners and wonder if they even get it...like "blue 30 seconds" for example ya know?
Dake does that better than anyone in the world. I've seem him to do it to everybody(Burroughs included) now with 79kg more fitting for him he is gonna be tuff
Dake is awesome! Sure wish they could reconfigure the weight classes so that Burrows, Dake and Taylor could all compete in the next Olympics. They each would earn gold medals.
@@tobiassanders3831 yeah, that's right. Good news. Too bad about Taylor though. If he was in the lineup, I would say this is probably our best world team since maybe 96.
wooooooow MAN, SPECTACULAR , such a beast is this Guy DAKE , much respect from Iran . there was tremendous pressure on Takatani's neck right there i thought he was gonna pass out . i watched his match with the Georgian guy with the take down and 3 turns, absolutely incredible performance. im wondering why he has never been seen in the US team .
Yo I really dont understand the passivity rule. Dake was hand fighting and even took a shot and the ref stopped it and said red action. I recently saw a match(I think it was oldish) if Nahshon Garrett wrestling Tony Ramos and Garrett got put on the clock after defending a shot but right before that he had just taken one. Does anyone know how this crap works?
with the 2nd throw, Japan was trying to push Dake out of bounds and Kyle used that push for the 2nd throw. He was the one to initiate the toss, that is why he got 4 points for it.
True, I would of counted both throws as the referee too, his right foot was out of bounds while doing the throw but after initiation, u can be out of bounds...
Dake could have sprawled on the 2nd shot attempt instead he did a slight back step and used the Japanese wrestlers momentum against him for the chest lock throw. We used to let them get all the way in on our legs and chin whip the shit out of them. Not sure that's legal anymore.
4 for Takatani on that second one or worst case (for Takatani) it should have been 5-1 Dake. No disrespect to Dake though. I bought the “Fly Air Dake” shirt that shows that first airtime and wore it in Budapest when Dake won his world title. I also ran into Takatani while wearing the shirt which was a little awkward 😂
mara 111 no chance. If dake didnt go for the 2nd throw, its a step out for japan. No chance he would've gone feet to back without dake initiating the throw. He just used japan's forward momentum against him.
I'll argue till the day I day -- the American folkstyle of wrestling is the most superior style of wrestling. I know, I know ... you're sayin how do you determine "best" or most "superior?" Well, I believe it best demonstrates who is the better wrestler, as it is a hundred times less subjective and video replays. I mean, if VR even were implemented nationally, it'd still be utilized 1/100th of the time as opposed to ONE freestyle tourney on the international stage.
OMEGALIN which is good. It forces you to get points in actually ways other than luck. I’m not saying freestyle is easy. It’s really really hard. But if there was an international folkstyle or Olympics for folkstyle, that would be the hardest.
@Jake Absolutely Jake and i've been saying/writing that under this name and another, and to friends and strangers conversing about MMA with me for about 26 years. Took at least 15 or more of those years for some fans and even fighters to finally stop putting it down and noticing that wrestling in general was so valuable (because 90% of fans want knockouts and finishes... as if all fighting in life and history has been one-sided spectacular entertainment since the stone age LOL). Thanks for writing that as after all these years, you are one of the few to support it. I wish I got some credit for bringing it up so long ago (a commentary job with the UFC would have been nice LOL) but people with better voices and connections get those gigs and learned while on the job. At least Rogan was supporting wrestling quite a bit early on, and when I was first trying to help BJJ guys learn better takedowns and scrambling in the late 90's/early 2000's. I noticed also that masses of casual fans (and some serious fans) actually started to call good wrestling moves "Jiu-jitsu" ...such as a nasty whizzer that neutralized a leg attack or a switch reversing control. Really pissed me off that after all the times I tried to teach what wrestling offered, it was being mangled and twisted and yet AGAIN they left out folkstyle.. At least overall grappling was being credited but jeeze... BJJ didn't need any more hype or compliments. They even tried to make sure Greco or "Olympians" were a bigger deal with MMA, and I tried to explain many times that the Olympians that did the best (mostly-- there are always exceptions)... ALSO had folkstyle backgrounds or started with folkstyle. It was only logical but as usual... people wanted to hear about fame (Olympics) or exotic names (Greco-Roman or Freestyle sounds cool). Guys like Romero would have been good at MMA no matter what style they started with, but the scrambling from folkstyle IS the glue between all the styles, and why I was nodding in approval after so many folk stylers ended up in the top twenty everywhere in MMA.... and it only took some of them a few years after starting LOL!!
I used to think the same until I started following freestyle more closely when Burroughs hit the international scene. I’m still a huge NCAA wrestling fan but in my opinion freestyle is by far more entertaining and exciting. I bet that the current top American folkstyle wrestlers (Spencer Lee and Yianni) would agree with me.
@@revans1961 I am obviously a multiple All-American in both greco and freestyle. I have wrestled freestyle extensively and the fact remains that you get points with no control and often people roll around in a scramble and the refs don't even know who to give the points to.
cheap my ass,can you land double leg just by your wish ?do you see suplex often? how hard is to take control of back ?it is not cheaply.only champions make it look easy.i wrestled freestyle for 5 years during middle-high school and everytime i was facing experienced name guy he would make me look and feel like amateur.There is levels to this.
Perfect example of why freestyle wrestling sucks! All the passivity occurs because nobody wants to shoot, and take the risk of giving up these bullshit points. Greco and freestyle have no fans and almost got pulled from the Olympics. They need to make folkstyle an international fixture. The format is much more relatable to casual fans and MMA fans. Holding someone down and escaping is natural. Leg laces and body lifts just don’t translate to people, and even wrestling fans.
Is it fair to say that if the referee was Japanese blue would of had his hand raised. The referee was completely biased. Get it together this isn't WWE!!!! These young men are diplomats of the sport and should get respect in the form of unbiased officiating! Please
The calls were actually 100% correct. The first 5, there really isn't any debate over them. The four point throw at the end was called correctly as well. Blue was pushing into red, and red initiated a throw while still in bounds, feet-to-back is another four points.

This went from the most boring match of the world cup to the most exciting in about 5 seconds
I blinked and it was over.
Jesus how strong is Dake. What a beast. I’ve seen him turn someone’s double leg shot into that before. Incredible.

Don't shoot double leg on Dake

@@theamazing10yearold65 good point, I've always wondered that myself but what is the solution?

Chris Custer
Yea it’s a shame there are only 6 Olympic weight classes. Not enough in my opinion
As we sitting out a year later, both Dake and Taylor are injured. What a shame.
@@daytonasayswhat9333 Dake's good now. Or he will be good enough to not miss the Olympics.
@@tobiassanders3831 yeah, that's right. Good news. Too bad about Taylor though. If he was in the lineup, I would say this is probably our best world team since maybe 96.
Exactly, both Russia and the US are going to have great wrestlers not going to the Olympic's. 6 weight classes, r u kidding me!!!!
Good to see Dake is really back at 100% from the shoulder issue.
The ref is so annoying let them wrestle
gabriel Rivera exactly
@@brandonarney6588 do you think takatani even understands the ref? Probably doesn't speak English right?
@@theamazing10yearold65 🤣🤣
this is why freestyle is wild
Sometimes.
Yeah, you get a ton of points without ever really having control.
Love seeing Dake feel the love at Carver from the Iowa Hawkeyes!!
wooooooow MAN, SPECTACULAR , such a beast is this Guy DAKE ,
much respect from Iran .

Dake was tgrying to free his hands in a way that gets the ref to notice and to sympathize. Clearly, his opponent was stalling.
Chris Custer I’m confused about how that answers my question. The red didn’t sympathize with him. He warned him for inactivity.
@@chriscuster2009 No such thing in freestyle. That’s like saying Dake was encroaching or offsides
Short answer: it doesnt, its refs discresion
Its more about controlling the center I think
Definitely got the 1st throw, but second one was questionable...
Chayil El u could see him lifting and creating the throw. It's pretty obv. Just the dude from Japan gave him the momentum the second time
with the 2nd throw, Japan was trying to push Dake out of bounds and Kyle used that push for the 2nd throw. He was the one to initiate the toss, that is why he got 4 points for it.

9 pts, 1 takedown, 5 seconds
Excellent throws by Dake
Yeah he needed them yesterday
Amazing!
Kyle dake is a stud
Go Takatani
Nice move!
There needs to be more weight classes. At least have 8
5:20
I like Kyle dake but I kinda disagree with the call... and I hate that they put a wrestler on a shot clock... that's why I hate freestyle.
Dake initiated the throw with a foot inside the circle
Looks like Genki Sudo on 00:48
he is
In even matches, best to just play defense which is boring otherwise you risk too much.
WOW!
5:4
mara 111 plz explain
Really looked like Dake initiated both throws to me.
mara 111 no chance. If dake didnt go for the 2nd throw, its a step out for japan. No chance he would've gone feet to back without dake initiating the throw. He just used japan's forward momentum against him.
your fucking crazy
Im not insulting you, but that is a clear throw initiated by Dake. проверяет ваши глаза
I did not enjoy Kyle Dake's haughty exposition of triumph. The Japanese typically display humility and contain such prideful outward displays.
japan has some good wrestlers but they must be emulating the russians they just stall too much

A Kang Bruh a throw doesnt even score in folk style...
What of it? That is one tiny, tiny 'con' of folkstyle vs. all the giant pros for it.
