He’s not being selfish. There are 10 weight classes in the worlds and only 6 in the Olympics. Dake still wants an Olympic gold before he retires.

[@brendan638]

Dake is so well-spoken and is such a good ambassador for the sport. What a treat for us fans and inspiration to many worldwide.

[@WrestlingUniversity]

Kyle your willingness to talk about Functional Patterns publicly is what sparked my interest. I invested in Naudi's online pt program because of you and have never looked back. Have put all of my family and friends onto FP. Changed my life forever. Thank you brother.

[@smoore8]

Dake gets it! Very few athletes willing to say that. Also his training methods are spot on

[@alexlee8765]

Huge fan after hearing him speak

[@abhishekshuklaa_]

Good job champ❤

[@A_RayChan_Joint]

champ mindset

[@GarciaVideoProductions]

It’s still a mystery why he wasn’t himself in 2021. He’s said we’ll find out in the long awaited “Dake Doc” that’s going to be amazing. No doubt he’ll make it happen in 2024. No doubt. He’s the best.

[@quincyspielberger4366]

Dake? Burroughs and Cox kept the guy from the Olympics for a decade. Then in Tokyo he gets teched 11-0 by a guy that doesn’t even win the gold!

@@quincyspielberger4366shut up quincy, goodness gracious

[@etagged]

Just lost worlds to a Russian who was smarter than him

[@quincyspielberger4366]

What?!?! Did you not see him in Tokyo? He got dismantled by a guy that then lost to this guy. A rematch will be even uglier!

[@icarus8471]

@@quincyspielberger4366-H'm. Didn't he defeat the wrestler who beat that guy in the first round this time out? And he just wrestled Sidakov well and won silver. In a match if you make a mistake in a match and give up 4 points you can get quicksanded. It happens.

[@adityashrivastava8498]

Who is Dake's training partner here??

[@willalfano8]

is ready to run through a wall a wrestling quote?

[@michaelscott33]

No, he’s saying that in response to what Dake had just said…inspirational and motivating.

[@roguephoenix]

"when is life no longer about me" is when you have kids.

[@austinwhisler5938]

He has kids and he’s still saying he’s prioritizing being an Olympic/world champ.

[@acemxe8472]

@@austinwhisler5938You legit don't know his personal lofe. Just because he's a successful wrestler doesn't mean that takes priority over his kids.

[@austinwhisler5938]

@@acemxe8472 didn’t say that but thanks for misconstruing my words and for the horrible spelling

[@acemxe8472]

@@austinwhisler5938 You don't have to say something verbatim in order to say something synonymous. It seems that all your rebuttal could extend to is pointing out a simple typo. And if I have horrible spelling, then please fix your grammar. Don't forget to use your capitals and periods when starting and ending a sentence. :)

@@acemxe8472 he moved to State College to prioritize wrestling and winning more world and Olympic medals. You didn’t watch the video. Best of luck keyboard warrior

[@RyanDeakin-mm7pm]

Dake retired in 2013 didn't he? 10 weight classes in the worlds with a lot of room to move weights and duck the tough matches.. Only 6 weight classes in an Olympic tournament. In 2016 J'Den Cox beat Dake and kept him from the Olympics. Tokyo was Dake's first shot (at 32 years old) at an Olympic gold and he was teched 11-0 in just the second round. Dake was a folkstyle god he was just never technical enough or fast enough to wrestle at the Olympic level.

[@LionelV100]

Wrestling doesn t pay the bills

[@michaelscott33]

It does for the top guys….sponsorships…

[@andreysid2610]

He probably won't get an Olympic gold

[@quincyspielberger4366]

Burroughs beat him from 2013 until he shattered his ankle is 2021. Dake was awesome in NCAA but the Olympians bring their A game! He did well to finish 3rd!

[@michaelscott33]

He is a multi-time world champ….

[@quincyspielberger4366]

TEN weight classes in the worlds - guys treat the worlds like a practice tournament trying new weight classes, new styles, new moves. Only SIX weight classes in the Olympics and everyone brings their A game! Instead of ducking guys in the worlds like he did in college he should be using the tougher guys to get better.@@michaelscott33

Dude thinks he's in his prime? Come on Dake.

pushing the boundaries *with steroid , haha , that dude is funny, yes with the products you can wrestler even until your sixties

Prove it

Is he going to lose in 5 seconds like last Olympics ?

[@AertPietersz]

How did you manage the pressure when you won your gold?

[@AntonioLopez-kw3ev]

@@AertPietersz dake lost again not surprised but Time his time lasted 10 seconds and you are but hurt like a girly male 🤡😂
