[@MrLee-gj2jz]

I think Indian wrestling federation is not correctly filling in the form for passport for the Indian wrestlers. The name and surname has to be split into two sections. For eg, the name entry should be Sujeet and surname should be Kumar. If you do not supply surname then as per most international conventions, the surname is automatically the first name. Hence Sujeet Sujeet. Great bout by Sujeet though 🔥🔥🔥!!!

[@bhanwarsingh9370]

Sujeet kalkal ❤

[@johnk7187]

Was anyone else watching the same match? After the initial exchange that was initiated by Yianni all the Indian wrestler did was reach for an under hook sprawl and stall. The ref put Yianni on the clock way too fast (when he was the one initiating all the action) and from that point he was wrestling from 3 points down. The only action started by sujeet was after he was put on the clock and at the very end when Yianni was desperate to score.

[@klawson8617]

Similar to yazdani

[@phattygoodness7347]

Agree entirely. Was thinking why they put Yianni on the clock after he had taken several shot attempts while the other wrestler didn't do anything.

Passives are only called when no points have been scored in the period for a certain amount of time. He was the first to score in both periods. Not just good defense, he was better offensively also

[@NicholasRodriguezN7]

@@wrestlingscience That's a good point. I wasn't aware the passivity was only for 0-0 but I like the folkstyle rules better because that's not the only time someone can be a passive and not attacking.

[@tylernicholson5319]

@@NicholasRodriguezN7 You were right initially and Wrestling Science is incorrect. Passives can and must be called throughout the match (Article 47 Section A). The actual language is: "*Anytime* the refereeing body agrees a wrestler is blocking, interlocking fingers, thwarting his opponent and/or generally avoiding wrestling"... key word is *anytime* What he is referring to is that a passive MUST be called when no points have been scored in the first period with one minute left (Article 47 Section B).

Congrats to Sujeet. He is clearly good at underhook, sprawling, and stalling. Not sure why Yianni was put on the clock when he was the only one acting offensively. Can’t knock Sujeet bcus ultimately he won but those defensive stalling wrestlers are not fun to watch. I think they got to the same under hook sprawl stall position more than a dozen times.
