Cael Sanderson vs. Adam Saitiev

[@nurtilekorunbekov5082]

Adam's weight class was always 74 kilos. He decided to go up in weight class to avoid competing with his elder brother -Buvaisar. He still managed to get everyone on their knees. What a professional!

[@Arminsaf2]

I wouldn’t say avoided competing, I’m pretty sure I remember him saying his brother was better then him

[@rayfreestyl3]

buvaisar was better 3 time olympic gold

[@McRee771]

Cael looks 2-3 weight divisions bigger than Adam and he was still getting bullied on the mat here... insane

[@mubarkqardas46]

"theres levels to this"

[@turneryoung905]

Look at Adam Saitiev’s physique standing next to Yoel Romero before the 2000 Olympic Gold Medal match where Adam Saitiev ragdolled prime Yoel with the meanest inside trip I’ve ever seen.

[@shakoiatenhawithacrossjaco9051]

Probably because he was. Adam would wrestle a weight class above himself so he didn’t compete with his brother.

[@chrissteen9944]

nobody got bullied the best of the best going at it, Cael took the most shots…..

[@Hector-rn3ff]

I wouldn’t say “bullied” lol

[@JakeSemtexx]

Adam is a legend he has 2 world championships and an olympic gold

[@rawbfish9355]

A close match between two excellent wrestlers.

[@CarlosStephenPR]

Im mad that reff blocked the camera for 10 seconds. Those were 10 seconds of awesome hand-fighting that We Couldnt see :(

[@nathanpetersen1392]

How about being mad at USA wrestling for posting so many low quality videos.

[@mubarkqardas46]

@@nathanpetersen1392 the disregard they showed for wrestling until its exploding success in mma is astounding.. half the videos on youtube are from VHS not professional filming.

[@ericholland-cr1nt]

Adams bother was in the weight below this, he might be the greatest wrestler ever

[@ETIron-e2h]

Yes. Buvaisar Saitiev is the best freestyle wrestler I’ve ever seen.

[@somerandomguythatlikesmeme7396]

Two absolute legends going at it. This is awesome

[@jamessalemi1477]

SIMPLE : I F OLLOW AS A PASSION DETAILS OF OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTING AND BOTH WRESTLING DISCIPLINES. SO I RESEARCHED THE MIGHTY, BOTH, SOVIET WRESTLING AND WEIGHTLIFTING TEAMS AND LEARNED OF WRESTLER NIKOLAI BALBOSHIN...AS I SAID PINNED ALL 5 OPPONENTS IN 1976 OLYMPICS. IM SO SAD NOT ONE VIDEO OF THIS MAN, WHOM NOBODY OUTPERFORMED WHEN IT MATTERED MOST : THE OLYMPIC GAMES. YOURE VERY SHARP IN CATCHING MY RESEARCH. THANK YOU...I'M HUMBLED🎉

[@barber215]

@dimka171 well, Saitiev has a fantastic ability to counter. that was one of his trump cards. and Saitiev was much more experienced than Cael. but the mental conditioning of Sanderson won in the end. great match here.

[@anklepick9524]

Nont mental conditioning. Mostly conditioning from having a huge size advantage.

[@billthebutcher2]

Cael lists this as a win on his website..

[@dfdfdgggjhjjh5081]

There’s a longer video which shows cael won at the end.

[@trm3177]

Adam is small for this weight class had to move up because of his brother Buvaisar. I would like to see the brothers wrestle! LOL

[@Crapsshooter711]

So what was the final score before somebody conveniently cut it off??? With time running out Satiev was up 3-2 so no ties for the criteria to come into play.

[@kiyanirani6460]

He is my favort wrestler and my wrestling is like hime

[@djdoomy]

sanderson much bigger

[@billthebutcher2]

@DavidForthoffer Cool thanks for clarifying. I wish I could find the other one too.

[@ga000000000000]

His brother wrestles in 74-76 category and everytime they meet he loses from him so he is like under his brother shadow thats why he chose bigger category

[@zenly_csgo]

nope - Just younger brother respects that older choice 74 category and go to higher category

[@jasonswift9310]

@@zenly_csgo Buvasier beat up on Adam, that's why Adam wrestled ar a much heavier weight.

[@anonsweden8805]

@@jasonswift9310 That’s not true, in chechen cultur you cant win fight against your older brother ang get the win, so he get him the victory, the fact is buvaisar said he’s brother was better than him

[@frankiecal3186]

Super close match. Russian bots will hate.

[@icharuswing]

@dimka171 that wouldn't be a match it'd be a clinic

[@toniion8517]

SAITIEV ...T34 !!!! Anderson ....pupie Dog ....

[@tiscitatascit]

would have been a great match to watch if there wasnt three refs in the way

[@kallepikku4991]

Who won in the end?

[@Callenk11]

Cael

[@Crapsshooter711]

@@Callenk11. The score was 3-2 Satiev according to the scoreboard and time running out. No ties for the criteria to come in. Now, just what happened at the end of this match as Cael would have to score big to get up 4-3 and why the match conclusion cut off???

[@jamessalemi1477]

SIMPLE : ALL THE WRESTLING VIDEOS NEVER EVER SHOW NIKOLAI BALBOSHIN...THIS RUSSIAN MADMAN AT LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT PINNED ALL 5 OPPONENTS IN 76 MONTREAL OLYMPICS. GABLE, MEDVED, SAITIEV, KARELIN, KOLCHINSKYI NOBODY MATCHED THAT PERFORMANCE. VERY TRAGICALLY NOBODY KNOWS NOTHING OF THIS HUMAN CRUSHER ON UTUBE, VIDEO OR ANYWHERE. LOVE TO SEE HIS STRENGTH WITH SHARY OR VARDANIAN....eheheh

[@Techapps-mm7en]

If there’s nothing on him how do you know about him. How can I find him or anything about him?

[@jamessalemi1477]

SIMPLE : I JUST READ SOMEWHERE HE PINNED ALL 5 OPPONENTS...YET VERY RARE 1976 OLYMPIC WRESTLING AND WEIGHTLIFTING VIDEOS. RIDICULOUS.

[@nathanpetersen1392]

USA wrestling. Why are so many of your videos of such low quality? You need to step your game up.

[@grathapilot]

these are older, vhs videos, it's all that exists of a lot of matches from 10+ years ago, just be glad there's anything at all. If you look at videos of modern tournaments you'll know wrestling already did 'step its game up' big time in terms of accessability.

[@turneryoung905]

Lol just because Cael is taller and long doesn’t make him bigger. Look at how big Saitiev’s shoulders and legs are.

[@bigfakelaugh6209]

Cael was about 15-20+ pounds heavier. Adam walked around like 5 kilos underweight for the category.
