The 10 foot heavy duty electrical cord and the 360 degree swivel cord allow you enough mobility and prevent. A swivel cord is one of the most important feature as it is beneficial for cheap chi flat iron hard-to-reach areas such as in the back.

I didn't think anyone could top Tom Brands' 1989 whipping of Kendall Cross. Leave it to brother Terry. Thanks for posting this, as I had never seen it before. It's one of my new favorite matches.

Can anyone think of two NCAA studs who are future olympic medalists like these fellas?
Here's some of the NCAA Finals that were Olympians. The ones who didn't medal were for obvious reasons (boycott).

'72-UNL: Taylor/Wojciechowski, '75-150: Yagla/Kemp, '76-177: Campbell/Johnson, UNL: Jackson/Gibson, '77-177: Campbell/Johnson, '79-118: Mills/Gonzalez, 126: Lewis/Azevedo, '82-150: Carr/Monday, 177: Schultz/Banach, '83-126: Davis/Bohay, 150: Carr/Monday, '98-167: Williams/Slay, '01-184: Sanderson/Cormier.

actually, I think Fried might have beaten both in the Jr Nationals one year too....still a pretty short list.

Don't know about Cross. Terry Brands was beaten by Chad Zaputil in the Iowa State finals. Zaputil wrestled for Iowa at 118. Another little slice of trivia...It was stated in the capsul that Brands beat Kelber for the NCAA title in 90. Kelber beat Tom Brands in the state finals in the mid 80's and then beat Terry in the '91 NCAA final. Kelber and Cross may be the only humans to have beaten both Brands bros. (except their mother)

Vik Cheema   June 19 at 2:24am
What a beast..Terry Brands once spoke about how Gable would run "mind-numbing workouts" and you can see Terry looking in his corner to Coach Gable in between the mind-numbing of Cross. That's what these Iowa guys train to do, break their opponents. Basically tech-falled a national champion.

Enough of the pro-Iowa stuff, although I love that Kolat-Ironside match. If Kolat had Ironside's gas tank, he'd have techfalled him, but that's a very big if.

Two who are destined for an amazing trials match.
Probly not.
I don't think 250,000 is going to bring back the Brands, Cross, etc type.
I hope so.

If you look that video was just posted like a week ago. All good I am trying not to do Iowa guys every week but its kinda easy to find the great matches with Iowa guys. I think I have a decent back up. I have a chunk of old Big Ten Championships I gotta get digitized then I'll have a lot more to choose from.

Youtube stole your thunder. Here's one I couldn't find on YouTube, but remember... Terry Brands vs. Jeff Prescott from around '91 or '92 dual in Iowa City

Cliff Fretwell   June 18 at 1:24pm
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

You stole my next weeks thunder. Ironside Kolat was on the slate.

Chad Zapitul (who wrestled at Iowa) beat Brands.

Phil Visicaro   June 18 at 12:13pm
Cross crazy amount of bad shots with head down costing him alot of takedowns. The majority of Brands work was Cross being out of position.

Wonder if the Alton twins will surpass the Brands legacy

Doglist   June 18 at 11:43am
I noticed none of the Iowa haters posted any comments about Tom and Terry Brands matches. They epitomize the Iowa style that you guys hate so much. Moving forward, constantly attacking, maintaining good position, using solid and basic technique, out working their opponents, and physically and mentally breaking their opponents. What is it that you guys want to see stalling, backing up, and calling time out?

Iowa Boy   June 18 at 11:15am
That was a beat down from the cornfields to the oil fields....wow!!
