I saw the early line. Burroughs was like +177 to win gold, now +128.
Early line looked good, but what do I know? World-class athlete, you'd think he wins. I really don't like the clinch rules, seems like luck of the draw.

Honestly, it's his. He has to mess up pretty bad not to take this. Guy is hitting on all cylinders. Bet with confidence.

I think he wins. He has beaten the top two other wrestlers at his weight, Tsargush from Russia and Goudarhi from Iran. I hope he doesn't have to wrestle Tsargush though because the Russian will try to slow things down and try to get lucky with something. Burroughs is the favorite for good reason.

Actually was going to start a thread about this, but would hate to jinx a Gild medal by starting a POUND thread in players talk. LOL

Cool, man. Logically, you're right. As I referenced, Burroughs is a notch above other wrestlers, re: athleticism. A lot of times it the Brands Bro-type guys in wrestling. Average talent guys who refuse to put obstacles in their paths and train like maniacs.
I view Burroughs like u. A world-class athlete that is competing vs guys in a lower tier. I hope he does it. The +177 was probably a great bet.Nomination(s):This post was nominated 1 time . To view the nominated thread please click here. People who nominated: BIGDAY

One thing scared me off. I read Burroughs' blog and he did complain about having to cut 12 lbs for weigh-in and how hard it was.
The weight cut is, of course, typical for wrestlers. But he made it sound like it was real drudgery this time.

Looks like he had an easy weight cut

£800 on Burroughs at moment to win almost £1800. Might buy back a little tomorrow if "Not Gold goes back down to -110 range #ALLISEEISGOLD

Burroughs' plan was 2012 Olympics, World team 2013-14-15, 2016 Olympics. THEN mma!
Burroughs is an amazing athlete. Went straight from NCAA/Folkstyle into USA Team trials (freestyle). Won 2012 Oly. To my knowledge, hasn't lost a freestyle match. Amazing, considering the rules transition.
Will be tempted to grab some cash, via MMA, for sure. If he runs the table on 2013-14-15-16 (above), you just have to say he's the best.
