  • Jordan Burroughs vs Kyle Dake. It's deeper than a rivalry. Since 2013 this beef between 5x World/Olympic Champion Jordan Burroughs and 4x NCAA Champion Kyle Dake has been escalating. In April of 2020, Kyle Dake let it all out on FloWrestling Radio Live saying he was going to retire JB, and attributed many of his losses to the "process" in which Team USA selects their representative. While Burroughs results speak for themselves as he's become one of the most decorated wrestlers in US history, JB didn't back down from Dake's challenges and barbs.
    The cameras have been along for this journey since 2013, capturing every key moment that created the animosity and fierce rivalry between Jordan Burroughs and Kyle Dake. Bad Blood puts in full display the moments of controversy and triumph between these two legends.

    That weight class was just absolutely loaded for the US in these recent years. Not just Burroughs and Dake but also David Taylor (who moved up to 86 and won multiple world titles) and J'Den Cox at 86 who won there and moved up to 92 and won there too. Burroughs, Dake, and Taylor all in the same US trials is nuts.

    • @iii-ei5cv
      @iii-ei5cv Před 3 lety +23

      Imagine you're in charge of the US wrestling program. Your star is Jordan Burroughs, who by 2013 (the first gauntlet Dake has to run), has been getting it done for the US for a few years now.
      Beyond Burrough's NCAA career, where he won two championships in 2009 and 2011, he has gotten gold at the 2011 World Championships and 2012 Summer Olympics along with first place at a number of other tournaments along the way. In other words, he's as proven a commodity as there is.
      Apart from Burroughs, you have a number of very good if not great prospects. Do you take your proven commodity, a man who has won gold for you multiple times on the world stage, and put him through an elimination bracket for the sake of 'fairness'? It's not like Burroughs hasn't faced and beaten these guys in the past.
      I respect the hell out of Dake, and acknowledge he had an insane road to get to where he is at. Nevertheless, I think US wrestling made the right call to protect one of the best wrestlers in the program's history.

      @@iii-ei5cv protecting a guy goes against the most basic ethos of wrestling, it’s a combat sport. Even in HS, the starter has to wrestle off if he’s challenged( and most schools). What you did last year shouldn’t matter, which is why they have WC EVERY year, you’re just assumed to be the best against, you have to prove it on the mat. In fact, at the WC/O, you get no advantage at all, because last year is gone, doesn’t matter any more. Dake was robbed in 2015, and jobbed at the US open in 2017, which forced him into the challenge tourney again, and Dake was inches from unseating him anyway. If it were JB who had to go through MAGIX, Howe, et al, no way he beats a rested Dake 2/3. This was the first year it was different, as Dake git a bye into the semis( J still sitting out) and the finals were the next night. JB was never in either match. Straight up, with no advantages and fair reffing; Dake is the man

    I just gotta say, Kyle Dake deserves a lot of credit for his persistence and mental toughness. He’s been through so much with his rivalry with Burroughs - some really questionable calls and the fact that he had to wrestle so many tough matches just to get a shot at Burroughs. He’s quite an amazing guy and a good role model for anyone struggling to be successful - just keep moving forward. He got a deserved break when they added a weight class for 2018 and so great for him to win a world title at the new weight class. Wishing all the best for Dake in the years ahead.

    I hope that people that are not necessarily really into wrestling finally get to see that Kyle Dake has been the better and tougher wrestler all along but has been beaten by bad bias officials and crazy stupid rules/circumstance. At the same time Kyle Dake would never use any of these issues as an excuse and just worked harder that anyone and is finally able to show how he has been the best all along.

    The whole qualifying process where a wrestler would have to wrestle through an entire challenge tournament and then wrestle the incumbent the same day was absurd. It was all about protecting the incumbents' spot, imposed a direct physical handicap on the challenger and the clear favoritism inevitably affected the referee's calls. The whole point was to make sure the incumbent won. US Wrestling implemented that qualifying process after a few instances where the top US wrestlers internationally were defeated by domestic wrestlers who were very familiar with them and who then got trounced internationally. US Wrestling decided it would not happen again, but it made qualification a farce. Very glad they modified it.

To be the champ you have to climb the mountain and dethrone the king. And JB was king for the better part of the decade. Also what’s with the “spin” from flo? Trying to make this a rivalry well it has been pretty one sided.

    I thought a Russian would be the G.o.a.t but this American is the one.
    I'd love if some Americans or Russian coaches brought Wrestling to Ireland.

    I have to hate on Flo for a couple simple but decidedly abstract reasons. While It's neat that someone is covering wrestling, finally, as I can remember long before flo when nobody did, but this content has this really preppy kinda...Soccer-y vibe to it. There's something about it that's so sterilized and clean that it's dry and the athlete's feel like they'd be unrelatable to anyone not super deep into the sport. Only the very very veryyyy best are covered, typically, and they are difficult for the layman to relate to. Flo's encapsulation of wrestling is one that has precisely ZERO dirtiness or ugliness, two things that are hallmarks of the sport (or used to be). It's polished up and again, the squeaky clean athletes are covered. Flo makes wrestling feel....nerdy. I guess thats the best way to put it. Maybe it's the perennially safe hosts Flo has covering the sport or the fact that it panders ONLY to people that cover the sport day in/day out, but why not show some other aspects of the sport, too? Is wrestling at the elite level just super nerdy now and I'm imagining things? Why does the content have to be so ridiculously sterile? Just feels weird. Why not spend more time following Thomas Gilman around? That little nutjob is super entertaining and relatable. I knew a ton of oddballs like that guy wrestling in HS and college. Just one example. I am glad Flo exists, don't get me wrong, and I'd take this quality content over no content, it just feels different than the wrestling and wrestlers I grew up with, and they weren't all bums, either. Some of them wrestled at the trials, etc.
