Both wrestlers have crazy skills. Zepeda did seem to have the upper hand in terms of size and strength. However, I admire Bo for wrestling up and for challenging himself. I love the way he wrestles and goes after it.

When I saw that I too thought it was well executed, but when I saw your comment, I thought to myself, "I don't believe that is illegal!", I teach my youth wrestlers a version of that, we call it either a kickback tilt or the broomstick, but like I said a variation of that move. I attempted to quickly find the NFHS rule book but the ones I found didn't mention it. What I did find was some commentary on why it's illegal; I guess using your leg to kickout the leg of your opponent in that fashion is what makes it illegal. The way I was taught in high school (way back in the mid 90's) and the way I teach our youth wrestlers is to hop back to block the leg with your hand. And I believe that's where the distinction is. I wonder why the refs didn't call the illegal move?

He wont admit it( good for him) but he wasn't right, by a long stretch. Credit to Ramos for catching him in the last seconds, but his entire rep is based on a match that wasn't what we thought ( bet the HOUSE). He's lost 7 times in the last year, including to a HS kid.
