Cadet World bronze medalist Nathanael Jesuroga and Cadet World champion Marc-Anthony McGowan will run it back at Who’s #1. The two first met at the 2021 Cadet World Team Trials where McGowan got the first takedown before Jesuroga stormed back to win 6-2. This time it’s at 120 lbs and in folkstyle.

After Jesuroga defeated McGowan at this year’s Cadet World Team Trials, he went on to defeat Aden Valencia two matches to none in the finals to make the Cadet World Team. At the World Championships just two weeks ago, Jesuroga proved himself on the international stage by winning a bronze medal.
