[@l.rongardner2150]

Brutal beating. KZbin needs to censor it.

[@ImaginaryHuman072889]

what an absolute powerhouse

[@MAMP]

Zain pummeled the shit out that guy. Jesus christ.

[@daw162]

Zain is stronger than everyone without looking stronger than anyone.

[@DTS_I]

Also far more skilled

[@Aesir47]

Have you seen bo nickal?

[@Mma-basement-215]

Yup and yup

[@loganmcguire8317]

There’s such a separation at 149 the past few years. Zain makes them all look bad

[@thomasciccone528]

jesus christ that was a beating

[@nathanjerore9066]

If hands to the face existed back at this time it would be a 50 point match.

[@KTLAW517]

Zain is probably the most brutal top men I’ve ever seen

[@pauldarling330]

Spencer Lee took that title. Zain is technical. Spencer Lee is absolutely brutal on top.

[@bhuff8695]

SLee was amazing with his tilt but Zain was way more brutal on top

[@so1idify]

Different level then his competition

[@schloughed]

Then his competition what?

[@julidiamondlover]

[@caulinwilson4491]

All the jordan brothers are extremely solid wrestlers

[@jonathanbachman2339]

caulin wilson Not when the wrestle Penn State. They get man handled.

[@jaromc9045]

Zain is #1 Right now! Top

[@blakkat4126]

28-2 and he got mauled as if he were 2-28. Just goes to show just how dominating Zain was.

[@ericday2427]

Broke him

[@antoniomontgomery859]

Dominant wrestling. But the hands to the face though ref. Gave them both verbals, zain kept it up

[@daw162]

It wasn't called two years ago like it has been now. To be honest, it's gotten ridiculous now that tight matches can hinge on hands to the face.

[@chamboyette853]

The match wasn't fair. Jordan should have won because he can bench press more. The only reason Zain won is because he trained a lot more. He should have trained less in order to make the match fair. Then Jordan would have won. So that means Jordan kicked his ass.

[@jivangalper1791]

tru my guy

[@hessy4766]

Ethan Hoback now that's true

[@nulonson3110]

Ethan Hoback he was joking

[@kawikajones9436]

Joke all you want, but there are actually people out there that think that this is how the world should be because they can't handle losing or their player/side/team losing! LOL!

[@daw162]

An entire match of bellying out for jordan. Why, to prevent team points?

[@andrewb7869]

Because he’s looking for the pin fall every time, and because it’s personal with Ohio State.

[@outdooraddictionpa8218]

Unreal!!!

[@ibrxhimmma8962]

dominant

[@teddyvincent4833]

Like watching a bear maul its prey. Zain was so tough.

[@hessy4766]

2:23 what's the name of that tilt

[@bouncybear4111]

There’s no tilt there

[@Waffleboy881]

Reverse leg hook I believe 😂

[@hessy4766]

@@Waffleboy881 I asked when I was in the 8th grade and just started wrestling I know now but thanks anyway

[@joshtog1752]

Where can u get Jordan’s knee pad

[@datcoolguy44]

Why do all Ohio guys look bigger than their opponent

[@scottab140]

The weight lift in a gym.

[@jonathanbachman2339]

They do not look bigger. The get pinned by stronger Penn Sate wrestlers. Or they get teched. Jorden is...........well weak like his brother.

[@enotstehw]

Juicing man juicing

[@xenonmaster6668]

7:45 why did zain do that

[@christopherroth7239]

To show the ref that Jordan was just holding his arm and stalling. The bottom wrestler needs to be working for an escape or reversal. If they are not they can be called for stalling, as Jordan was a few times.

[@xenonmaster6668]

@@christopherroth7239 I didn’t know that! Ik how stalling and wrestling works etc etc but thanks. I actually didn’t know that!

[@Aesir47]

I love Penn state wrestling. But it any match against a higher ranked opponent the refs are bias. Zain should have been called for hands to the face at least 5 or 6 times. I never understood that if you can win without it, which he obviously could.

[@paulbachman7822]

fish.

[@Fullsendfilosophy]

Paul Bachman haha Micah Jordan is a solid wrestler but Retherford makes everyone look like a fish

[@jonathanbachman2339]

twopoint Takedown Jordan is and outstanding wrestler. Like his Brother they need to get more strength. Trust their skills. The Penn State wrestlers are in there heads.

[@ChasingDonnieBaseball]

2019 rules Jordan wins 15-0 just by hands to the face alone :) Good Lord no wonder they call the new rule the "Zain rule" :)

[@jt519]

Chasing Donnie Baseball Retherford would’ve found away to beat him without hands to the face.

[@andrewb7869]

Lol... as if that’s the reason he won. Amazing mental gymnastics to ignore his pace, his takedowns, his creativity on top, and his relentless aggression. He was dar and away a better collegiate wrestler, despite Jordan’s immense talent.

[@zaynes5094]

@@andrewb7869 He really loves the armbar. Me myself I was always (for the two seasons I did wrestle) I managed to love 2-on-1s with an ankle pick. Worked 8 times out of 10. That or Russian with attacking front foot to back foot.

[@mikechillz-4800]

He's a beast and all but cmon we all know deep down leg riding is kinda cheap. It's like ehh I wanna see some David Taylor riding you k? Zane is a tank but I have a distaste for leg riding

[@mikechillz-4800]

Derek The Sneak correct

[@mcshizzle3926]

mikechillz- how is it cheap that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard

[@phattygoodness7347]

No way!! Leg riding may be boring if the person riding is only looking burn up the clock or gain riding time, but Retherford doesn't really ride legs... he's always looking to turk and turn. He's always looking to score points or finish matches. His technique on top is second to none. He turns everyone. He turns the best and strongest wrestlers with, what appears to be, little effort.

[@jt519]

His leg riding is probably the best in NCAA History with all the bonus points he had. Jordan was just getting handled.

[@paulnokio1199]

It's only cheap if he is burning up time. Zain wrestled offence the whole match

[@shedd45]

Zain Retherford wrestles dirty.

[@natesayles2798]

how does he wrestle dirty?

[@paulbachman7822]

Nate Sayles Don't feed the Troll. Ohio State's problem is they are weak compared to Penn State. Rut is just to much for any of the Ohio Wrestlers. Pennsylvania produces better wrestlers than Ohio.

[@shedd45]

Always punching the wrestlers in the face.

[@paulbachman7822]

shedd45 No face punching. Just tech falls or pins. Jordan needs to Man up and wrestle instead of running and flopping like a fish. Sorenson attack him and took him to overtime. Jordan beat Sorenson. Jordan can wrestle with Rut. Right now Jordan is a head case.

[@shedd45]

I keep seeing him doing that in his matches.
