Kid Dynamite Vs. World's Greatest
Kid Dynamite Vs. World's Greatest
Dynamite Vs. World’s Greatest
Willie Saylor, Editor
When Bader and Joe Flo traveled to Russia last week they were bombarded with questions about Jordan Burroughs. It’s universally understood that Burroughs, riding a 54-match international undefeated streak, is the World’s Pound-for-Pound king.
Tonight, he’ll take on a rising prodigy.
Burroughs has repeatedly called Andrew Howe the second best wrestler in the world at 74KG. So after the thrilling 12-minute overtime win by Dake over Howe, where does that place Kid Dynamite in the current pantheon?
Could it be conceivable that Dake, with his unshakeable confidence, is a legitimate threat to the World’s Greatest?
We know a few things: Dake just ran through a gauntlet of Paulson, Taylor, and Howe. We know Dake rises to the occasion. And we know Dake truly ‘believes’.
Tonight, we’ll witness the continuation of Jordan Burroughs’ legacy or a changing of the guard. The best part? It will be a best-of-three affair.
Burroughs’ quickness vs. Dake’s core strength.
Burroughs’ power vs. Dake’s balance.
Burroughs’ grit vs. Dake’s resourcefulness.
Don’t miss the drama as it unfolds to see who makes this year’s World Team.
