Brooks fending of those absolute quality shots from Taylor was incredibly impressive.

[@ExerciseHelps]

He's been wrestling Taylor for years. If he didn't know how to defend an older, slower Taylor that would just be embarrassing. Brooks took 3 shot attempts in his last three matches, but some how got 3 passivity calls on his opponents. Dude is going to get wrecked at Olympics if all he does is hard snaps and push outs.

Respect to David Taylor from Iran. In all of these years he always had one valuable thing : the wrestler morality ♥️

Morality? Hmm in his last match, he got gifted 4 points by the refs against Yazdani.

Bitter sweet. David Taylor was a god of my generation from childhood on up.

[@sandypeterson4083]

Brooks was the most dominant college wrestler I've seen in awhile. This is surprising though. Good for Brooks.

[@user-yk5hy8zt4n]

Damn, we won't see Taylor vs Yazdani this Olympics :(

[@Tdinh79]

David is STILL good enough to be a 2x Olympic Gold champion, and still loses to Aaron Brooks- wow!

[@Oldshirt]

Brooks is THAT good

[@ExerciseHelps]

​@Oldshirt Brooks is a defensive wrestler who has 5 years of learning Taylor's feel and tricks. He didn't do shit but counter. He couldn't hit a set up and get to a leg. He stuff a guy who he's wrestled 1k times and people want to act like he's so dominant. Brooks doesn't do a goddamn thing. The olympic refs aren't going a give a shit about his hard snaps and drops to his knees. Only garbage american refs think that shit means anything. And certainly nobody is gifting him any matches for ridiculous calls late in matches. Brooks won't place because he has zero offense.

[@Tdinh79]

@@ExerciseHelps Brooks handled Taylor convincingly. However, Brooks legitimate lost to Zahid though. That match was ridiculous and Zahid lost out in a chance to wrestle Taylor. I have never seen such bad reffing…

[@mahanrazagh]

​@ExerciseHelps Agreed. He will definitely lose to Yazdani in Paris though

[@robfreeman5783]

Brooks will not medal. Between the Zahid & Taylor 3 combined matches he took 1 legit shot. Only American refs pretend like pushing is some how "activity". Zahid getting put on a passivity clock is the absolute most laughable thing in wrestling. He won't have refs on his side and a teammate he's wrestled 500 times to get him. Screen shot this. Brooks is going 0-2 at the Olympics. Nobody, since 1970, thinks hard snaps are "activity".

[@Michael-ii9fs]

Most PSU fans were, but didn't necessarily want to see Taylor out yet. Taylor, at 33, was all in on Gold again. At 37, it isn't as realistic. He most likely won't return or really compete for the next one. The thing he needs to ask himself is if 34 is a solid year for him to possibly go out on. Or if maybe retirement is a possibility and coaching is next. But that weighs heavy...most wanted this to be his last Olympic shot, and cheer Aaron from there. Thing is, time is limited for everyone. 4 years is 4 years. Who knows with Aaron Brooks? He could go win this, and then weigh his options. He could probably be a dominant MMA fighter with the athleticism, strength, endurance, and world class wrestling base. He is custom built for it frankly. So, he may have this shot and no more depending on whether wrestling is his career or he pivots. He had no time to stay in any shadows if he didn't have to.
