Andrew Alirez vs Beau Bartlett | 2023 Senior Nationals

[@salvajeasp757]

I could see Alirez being a world medalist. He’s on fire like Vito was

[@ahyes7499]

He’s a lot better freestyle wrestler than folkstyle

[@Mateoarredondo]

@@ahyes7499and he’s the reigning ncaa champ, holy shit this guy is good…

[@normanhuntley5747]

2 of the quickest guys in ncaa( freesyle) wrestling! Alirez even quicker tho! Hard to believe he didn't go to one of the top 5 schools! Kudos to him for representing his home state! Probably one of the best nil contracts in the state,country?

[@ahyes7499]

@@Mateoarredondo no way? I mean, he’s the top dog in collegiate wrestling, and he’s even BETTER, and a lot better really in freestyle. The point I was trying to make was how impressive it was, not saying he’s just average at folk or something.

[@kyleklett4367]

AA had that short drag to perfection and both these dudes are cat quick. Oh yeah, time to start climbing the ladder to the top. Gonna be a fun year.

[@deletelawz1984]

Alirez beating Bartlett -- And, Bartlett has been on Fire. Wow - How good is Alirez? OG Gold, good?

[@Gymthingz]

Alirez had the music advantage.

[@iangalt6899]

That single from Alirez to a lace mid-air was filthy

[@bubblesthemonkey6615]

That single leg to leg lace transition is deadly

[@qhimicoasesino2989]

Great match Alirez controlled it from the beginning to the end.

[@MrSilus2000]

I listen to all this guys interviews.

[@npierce14]

Still haven’t learned yall lesson on not spoiling the match with the cover photo smh

Flo Wrestling takes the fun out of watching matches by insisting on telling us the winners before we watch.

[@darinstrailey9396]

Great wrestling

[@abdujk]

so does Alirez have to face Yianni Diakomihalis for the olympic trials

[@youmang]

Why didn't these guys face off during the ncaa season.......guess i missed their match at the tourney

[@michaelmaloskyjr]

2023 NCAA semifinals Alirez 6-2 over Bartlett

[@youmang]

@@michaelmaloskyjr i edited my comment after i heard the announcer. They only wrestled one time, that's a trip but i guess conferences and all.

[@michaelmaloskyjr]

@youmang Yeah, from what the announcers said, you'd think there are tons of match videos out there.

@@xzjayz7925Beau being at Penn State I imagine he'll walk Alirez down in the season. Don't get me wrong, I was rooting for Alirez to win it at 141 last season, but as I am a Penn State guy I really think Beau can beat him. He just has to stop coming out of matches slow and has to push Alirez around because this looked bad for him.

[@broheme8922]

International scoring for leg laces is just stupid. A takedown and roll 4 times - match over.

[@l.rongardner2150]

Exactly. It makes a mockery of wrestling. Folk-style wrestling is more entertaining than freestyle.

[@joeyriojas2996]

Folkstyle = Art Freestyle = Art If you’re a fan of wrestling, you learn to love it all. Folk has downfalls, Free has downfalls, Greco has downfalls. Still a fan of it all. Learn to stop a folk turn that can tech you, learn to stop a free turn that can tech you. Learn to stop a Greco turn/lift that can tech you.

[@broheme8922]

@@joeyriojas2996 I like freestyle and folkstyle. In fact I much prefer the way freestyle forces action (point for OB, no 2+ minute ride-outs, etc.). But appreciating the different styles and blindly accepting all of the scoring rules are two very different things. And "learn to stop" is the standard argument from anyone who doesn't want to rationally debate. Suppose a takedown is awarded 10 pts? Or a pushout? No problem. "Learn to stop them." It's a question of whether or not the scoring versus difficulty makes sense. I argue ending a match for one hold and rolling doesn't make sense.

[@juanr2179]

Ridiculous comments clearly has no idea what it takes to keg lace or "roll" anyone at this level. Alirez is a master of his trade. Bartlett is no joke

[@broheme8922]

@@juanr2179 Didn't realize freestyle scoring changed "at this level."

65 kgs is stacked! Will Yianni make the Olympic team?

[@dougiefresh72]

Tough call! He’s lost multiple times to Zain, Lee & McKenna. And now Alirez in the mix.

[@juanr2179]

Alirez has way more options in the arsenal.

[@redfoxparadox2288]

stop spoiling the title flo

[@wsalas13]

If they wrestled 10 matches...don't think Alirez gives-up a single point

[@zaynes5094]

@wsalas13 I doubt it. Beau Bartlett is way too good and smart to be doing that. He's probably going to make the adjustments.

[@wsalas13]

@zaynes5094 lol...Was being facetious...just stating Alirez dominated in every position during this match...but hold ur thought...one of us can respond back after their next match

Why spoil it wtf

Spoiler alert. Flo - I hate you. I will find you

[@l.rongardner2150]

It is UNBELIEVABLE that this venue POLLUTES this event by pumping out horsecrap rap/hip-hop noise pollution during matches. I can't comprehend how anyone in their right mind would want to listen to this ANTI-music.
