Last time Tomasello got in my thought turned to " what the heck will this kid do next?" WOW. That constant motion reminds me of Messenbrink, but quicker. College weight prediction, 197 lol

Askren-ish…….

Doing this in high school? Man, in high school I was just running around the school looking for the concession stand after weigh ins. How is this possible? It just doesn't make sense

Been watching Jax progress for a few years now... We may have a future Olympics Gold medal champion while still wrestling in College competing for a National Championship within years of each other. God bless Jax in all that he puts his mind to and good luck in your goal to be an Olympic Champion and an NCAA National Champion!! Love you brother.

He SLIDES BY to the Olympic trials.

So refreshing to see an offensive styled wrestler coming up.

18:04 This “kid” is incredible. What an interview about staying grounded. And it’s no accident that he’s doing the interview standing in front of ram horns, thereby making them appear as angel’s wings. Impressive young man!

His quick twitch and fundamentals for his length is something special

His slide by is top notch

He is a FREAK 🔥🇺🇸

I came here after watching his match with Gilman. This kid is incredible. What I just saw him do to Tomasello was *unthinkable* -- incredible. *_Incredible._*

BEAST. PSU room practice pays off.

Dude's an artist on the mat. Hate to have the bad luck of facing him. 🙁

I don’t think I’ve ever see in any sport a high schooler dominate a much older competition as well as that competitor being a champion at the highest level in what other sport could you see this happening this is history

Love this kids style

Incredible technique. Wow!!!

4:50 he’s so slappy bro

Couple takeaways for me from his smashing of the field: Looked like Turner was hurt almost immediately, something in his ribs. With how he mollywhopped Tomasello I'm not sure it would have mattered though. I haven't looked at Tomasello's matches in a while, but are long and lanky good opponents just really bad matchups for him? On paper he should have dominated that match physically being the seemingly more muscled wrestler but Jax just brutalized him physically. That said it bodes well for Jax assuming he stays healthy that he's able to wrestle for a full match at that pace (the Rodriguez match before he blew it open) and able to matchup and out muscle the short stocky guys. Good for him, hope he continues to do well.

Where is he going for college? Looks like a little kid wrestling grown men! So crazy. He’s going to be fun to watch in the future.

Congratulations Jax your wrestling is amazing and thank you for showing Jesus in all you do!!!

Ya he is good, he DIDNT WIN THE OLYMPIC TRIALS, he just Qualified for the Olympic trials. Which is huge for a HS sophomore…he will get man handled in the Olympic trials…these dudes are high pedigree. Thomasello is a solid college wrestler, he isn’t a solid freestyle wrestler. This kid is real good at freestyle. He is lenky and knows freestyle well

😱 …🤯 Insane !

6:15 bo basset

Techs ex-NCAA champ as a high school sophomore....wow

I wish i could go back in time and new all these moves. I never payed attention when i was younger. I was a 2x state champ

Two freaks on the mat in that one match.

Wrestles in super fast motion. Anything to slow him down? Hand fighting didn't work.

Here is what is difficult to understand. People are always saying, "Speed and skill will beat strength." Ok. But the older wrestler is very good, just not as good. But the older wrestler has had time to really build some serious strength,while the high school kid hasn't.

Is he a PSU bound wrestler??? It's great to see he LOVES the LORD!

It's so funny how, when I watch folkstyle I am constantly thinking of the freestyle rules that could be implemented to the improve the product, but then I watch freestyle and all I can think about is the folkstyle rules that could be implemented to improve the product. The rules/scoring for both styles have multiple OBVIOUS shortcomings that could be mostly fixed by merging the two into a hybrid ruleset.

​@@9miggy9 Yeah, man. Few and far between I guess.

I’m a sole believer that college wrestling destroys some freestyle careers.

got to turn pro in middle school. better have deep pockets for all the coaching, travel, and club time. does it make sense to invest so much of one's life in a skill set with zero chance of return on investment?

Imagine this kid filled out after working out in a college(PSU) room. Eesh. And Chael won’t coach it out of him like Iowa or OSU would.

Congrats to FloForrestBassett for ignoring all other wrestlers to push what they are being paid to promote.

Ай бұрын

@@anklepick9524 I don't think they exchange them but in long tourneys you do see sometimes someone making it late into the tourney end up wearing another singlet. Usually that's because of blood or something but as we could see Jax hadn't been on the mat long enough to sweat let alone bleed. A couple years ago Suriano wore Nashon Garret's singlet during the US Open I think. If I remember correctly it was actually while wrestling Garret which made it weird. In that case it was because Suriano didn't have the other color singlet available but it happens for other reasons too.

And just a sophomore at that?

Glory to JESUS, this kid is the best because JESUS is in his heart, and I bet 1000 dollars that this kid pins down Khabib Nurgadomedov in Three minutes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Good to have something that keeps you humble.

The better wrestler lost that match. Folk wrestling gives stalling points.Free style needs to eliminate the Sumu wrestling push out points.

The rules of wrestling have been changed over the years to make it a lot easier to score. And in my opinion, it has not been a good change. It is way too easy to score now. They immediately award points to whomever initiates the move regardless of whether the technique is sloppy. Back then takedowns were 1 point only and the most you could score in one move was 3. Under the rules I used to wrestle, the first throw against Tomasello would have been only 2 points. Here they gave him 4. When a tech fall is a 10 point advantage, that is a big difference. Now a wrestler can make a couple of mistakes and it’s match over. I may be in the minority but I don’t like that. In my day matches could be slow and low scoring which wasn’t exciting so a change was due, but now I think they went too far in the other direction. I wish they could find a compromise somehow.

rolling should be removed as scoring shit is not impressive

What’s with that Amish bowl haircut on the boy in red?

Who in their right mind likes these idiotic rules of wrestling? Grabbing two legs and crocodile spinning for points is utterly ridiculous and moronic! Why don’t they wrestle collegiate style instead of this? Unwatchable and not indicative of a wrestler’s capability in this cretinous style.
