Jello, good name for you. I learned double wrist lock 10 years before it was called a kimura from the cubans at the pan ams. 100% legal. Not the slightest bit of guilt on my conscience. I'm 100% guilt-free. The refs took 8 hours to decide whether the move took the arm beyond the 90 degree limit. Wrestling is controlled chaos and the difference between an illegal DWL and legal one is 1 degree. 8 hours of video review to decide if it was 90 or 91 degrees. After I was DQ'd they assigned the Head Referee to watch Dave and I the rest of the tournament and even had legal moves stopped unnecessarily after that. I don't cheat. I fight to win.

why not call singlet grabbing an illegal move and move on from this cheating on Tsargush's part and possibly shift most of the blame to FILA officials at that event.

GRant Greene-
you have this all wrong. it is NEVER ok to do this. the reason wrestlers wear singlets is to make it almost impossible to grab your clothing, and to have it as close as possible to your body. not only is it dirty (which by the way dirty is never ok) but it is also CHEATING yes, CHEATING. the rules state you cannot grap the singlet. its not "smart" it CHEATING that C - H - E - A - T - I - N - G

I think everybody has a pretty warped view on Tsargush's technique and that it's very arbitrary to call Tsargush a cheater for hitting his "singlet grab" technique when he was down by 1 with 15 seconds left in the period against Burroughs. It's pretty obvious that he has drilled this move to perfection.

There was 15 seconds left and Burroughs was about to take the period because he scored last. Tsargush had no way of scoring or closing the gap on Burroughs. So, Tsargush knew he had nothing to lose by using this "technique." If he got caught the takedown wouldn't count and Burroughs would still win the period. Tsargush executed his singlet grab perfectly so the refs couldn't see it and got the takedown. However, the call was challenged, he got caught, and the takedown should not have counted.

The refs (FILA) are the only people that should be condemned because the call was challenged and they still awarded the takedown to Tsargush after reviewing the tape. The refs knew exactly what Tsargush did and they purposely didn't show Tsargush's singlet grab set up on the big screen. This just goes to show how corrupt FILA is.
Tsargush is a 2 x world champ and didn't cheat his way to getting there. Wrestling dirty shouldn't classify a wrestler as being a cheater. Nick Simmons completely cuts of a person's air every time he hits his front headlock. Does that make him a cheater? I doubt any great wrestler who is a student of the sport completely ignores this technique and doesn't see that this is a pretty good move to know when you are down by a takedown with 15 seconds left in a big match. I bet you after Tsargush is done competing he would gladly share his "singlet grab" technique with flowrestling (technique wave) if he was asked to.

Agree with Scott. Flow why don't you post Mark Schultz's match in which he performed an illegal kimura and busted the elbow of a Turkish wrestler? Schultz was disqualified, but since the Turkish guy couldn't continue, they actually allowed Schultz to continue and that's how he won his gold metal....by cheating. Schultz is a cheater. Go look at it on on youtube:
"Mark Schultz Disqualification in 1984 Olympics"
Jello you had to go back to 1984 for your example....that is almost 30 years ago. The world wide web and flowrestling werent around.

About Tsargush...I got nothing against him....he def has a streak of "if you aint cheating you aint trying" It works for him pre-burroughs. What pisses us off and every fan of wrestling is Fila's inherent incompetence and corruptness in dealing with issues like this. They had instant replay for heaven's sake!!!! They saw what we saw and decided to ignore it. Why did they ignore it?

Disgusted 2 years ago

gwt you simply disgust me. All that money and bs you are so proud of making by cheating honest hard working people out of , and then gloating about it, makes me sick to my stomach. If i truly knew who you were I would make you disappear like Hoffa! Then we could truly ask how that money and bs is treating you. Rot in hell you piece of @#$%!!!

To the coward below me, yes, I am talking about the same Wall Street that almost brought down the world's economy. And you know what? I made money off it, and we passed the buck to middle America who are so delusional about honesty the "American Dream" that they forget that they are funding my trips to the Bahamas 5 times a year. A winner gets ahead by any means...usually by NOT following the rules. No doubt Lance Armstrong was steriod monkey, and now he has 7 victories at the Tour de France....and lots of money. Take the drugs, just don't freakin' get caught.

gwt-are you talking about the same wall street that almost brought down the world's economy? A skunk is always a skunk...no matter how much perfume you put on it. You might as well said you're a politician, both types are worthless. So sad you are so small a person that you feel wealth defines importance. What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul?

gwt 2 years ago

You don't make serious money without cutting corners...it's just a fact. I may be a vacillating douchebag...but my nice cars and houses help me get over it soon enough. Wall Street is one big pyramid scheme and if you are the "honest" type, well, you'll be paying the bills for me....while I bring in the serious cash. It's just reality. Do what you gotta do to get ahead...it's the American way and always has been. Those that don't get are either working in McDonalds or some other filthy dump with a dream of being rich. Targush does what he needs to do to get ahead, and I respect that.

if you cheat and get caught you're a cheater. if you chat and get away with it, you are savvy

"As a former wrestler -- now investment banker -- I can tell you that nobody get ahead on Wall Street without cheating. Sometimes you get caught, but most don't. And we are rewarded with a luxury lifestyle. Anyhow, enjoy your job at 7-11, you honest fool."

And all the zeros in your bank account still won't hide the fact that you are a vacillating douchebag. There are plenty of avenues in life where one can make money without cutting corners.

gwt 2 years ago

wow, you say, "you cant be a winner- winners never cheat, cheaters never win." Keep believing that if it makes you feel good. As a former wrestler -- now investment banker -- I can tell you that nobody get ahead on Wall Street without cheating. Sometimes you get caught, but most don't. And we are rewarded with a luxury lifestyle. Anyhow, enjoy your job at 7-11, you honest fool.

"To: Scott and Jello
Why dont you guys go ahead and build your own website, get the attention of the entire wrestling community and then post whatever videos you want!!!!

Or if that is too tough why dont you simply post the videos you want onto Flo since they are the place that YOU and everyone else comes to for wrestling videos"
I TOTALLY AGREE! FLO IS AWESOME!

To all those wanking about FILA, I say this: the NCAA is worse.

Randy H 2 years ago

Great work Flo and great commentating Bader. Funny thing is people who act like it is no big deal to cheat are people who cheat themselves and feel vindicated when they see others doing it also. Ironcially, and rather amusingly, they are the ones who become the most irate if it happens to them. As for fila, they made it possible to lose a match after you were declared the winner. Anyone know why Cary Kolat is not officially a world champion? so don't act like it doesn't matter or hurt anyone.

Scott Johnson apparently missed the 2010 World finals where Tsargush pulled his opponents singlet strap over his head and onto the other side as he goes to his sweep.

Joe Williamson 2 years ago

You are correct when you say I don't visit Flo very often...too much folkstyle for my tastes. You say Tsargush won the period by cheating. I'd say this: Burroughs won the match by being the better wrestler. Did Tsargush cheat? I don't know. What happened was not right, but hard to say if it was cheating because we don't know if he did it on purpose. Anyway, congrats to Burroughs!!!
you have been here twice in the last 14 hours. Just sayin

Seems like the only videos that Flow puts up in which we view a difficult call or controversial move involves a Russian. Jealous of their dominance and superiority? Still stuck in the Cold War days? Like the guy below me said, xenophobic? To be fair, why don't you have a special section where you put videos containing controversial moves or calls from all countries. Trust me, it's not hard to find videos of Americans cheating or playing dirty. So stop these childish antics.
You must not come to the site much. First of all you called it flow, not flo (very rookie error). Second of all, one of our biggest coverages has been Russian Nationals. We have always recognized Russia as being the best. Finally, search "you make the call" (cool series by gene stevens) and see that we have featured more controversial calls on our turf then anywhere else.

By the way, Tsargush won the period by cheating. It was terrible. Everyone saw it but it was let go. Do you think that is OK?

Mark Schultz also won the world championships twice after those Olympics... still a stud.

Russian wrestlers don't typically pull hair or singlets. Tsargush has made an art of it. He was smart enough to do it opposite where the ref was positioned, so it's less likely he'll see it in the first place.

FILA won't change rules in order to make things tougher for Burroughs. The international rules haven't changed all that dramatically since 2005 or so. Why is everyone continuing to complain about them?

DrakeHS 2 years ago

Nothing better than having this call completely butchered, but to have Burroughs simply train wreck him with a shuffle step and head smash while the Rooskie was stuck on a fetal position on the ground. Just flattened him. He's soooo far better than anything they've got it's silly. Burroughs...YOU DA MAN!
