Its almost hilarious seeing many people hate on Taylor. I remember when I went to a camp ran by Jeff Jordan and seeing Taylor doing everything needed from filling up water bottles to teaching to getting gear out for people. If any of you have actually meet the kid he is one of the most humblest guys I have met.
Matt Rostosky Pfft! He shook his hand like he always does! Do you want him to just not be disappointed? Its his dream to be number 1 not number 2... he always comes so so so so so so close and loses every time to Jordan. Dont act like you have any idea what its like to live in the shadow of someone your entire collegiate career. Knowing you have the skill, but not being able to get it done. If I were him, I'd be a lot less "gracious."
on my high school team only 1 football player made it through pre-season in 4 years (and he turned out to be pretty good). All the rest lasted a few weeks at best, because wrestling workouts were so much harder than football. That was a half-century ago, but it doesn’t look like wrestling has gotten any easier….
Excellent, beautiful high level wrestling... Like boxing, styles make fights, and so far this year, the only person to come anywhere close to Jordan Burroughs was Kyle Dake, and they're on the same team, incredible!
Taylor has a balance of strength speed and explosiveness and just the face that he has made it into the national team trials shows his how good of a wrestler and athlete the man is
Wow, very impressed with Taylor. This is such great experience for him. Burroughs is the bets p4p in the world right now IMO, so to hang in there with him is quite an accomplishment.
This went about exactly how it should have. Taylor is one of the other best wrestlers from the U.S. around this weight class, which makes him on of the best in the world. It's expected for him to have trouble with Burroughs especially in the early minutes against a new gold medalist. Then Taylor shows he's dangerous enough to score on anybody after awhile, and probably the gap would close over more time. Other matchups with world champs vs. the "next level" guys are similar.
to the guy talking smack about wrestling.... wrestling is is one of, if not, the hardest out there... it requires so much dedication and hard work.. more than half of the basketball players, soccer players, and even football players wouldnt be able handle a wrestlers life...
this shows you how good burroughs really is I mean taylor 2 years ago teched his kid in the finals and in this match you can see that Jordans on a different level and pretty much fucking destroyed him even though taylor is an amazing wrestler.
at 1:39 Burroughs wins a td by taking 2 'leaps' to travel a full 360 degrees and end up behind Taylor. amazing.I'm a big fan of DT but Burroughs is superhuman sometimes.
Why are takedowns worth 1 point here? In most freestyle videos they are worth 2 points. Also, why do the points start over during the 2nd period rather than continuing form the 1st period?
lol i love how this kid is arguing this. that if cael sanderson coached him he would beat him? not in a million years would he. until he is a 4x Ohio state champ, 3 time finalist and national champ, THEN maybe he can say something. but until then he needs to keep his mouth shut.
Even if it was the "weakest weight class" every person there is an athlete. These are people are recruited to a Division 1 school. These are people who train their entire lives, they are strong, they are fast, they are conditioned, and they function like that with one meal a day(if at all). And I hate your argument earlier about a wrestler not being able to come and play football or baseball(because they are not real athletes) there is no such thing as simply stepping on a mat. Wrestling is life
he can bulk up no problem.....its the strength that he lacks is the problem vs the burroughs, dakes,howes of the world...........if he drops a weight, he's a beast
The problem Have with Jordan Burroughs is that he has already won a bunch of matches and it would have been much more equitable had he let his opponent win some. But no, he had to be selfish and win just one more.
Burroughs had to work to beat Taylor. The entire world is still puzzled as to how Dake ever beat Taylor. You can easily tell Taylor is the much better wrestler
Ran 5.3 (8th)Hey Im a late bloomer don't hate im getting a lot faster also im a linebacker that weighs 160.... there no why you weigh enough to go d1 and and run a 4.9...anyway my dad played d1 football and my brother wrestles d1 how are you going to judge my athletic ability?
Ok, what do you mean, 2ndasylum, sports he could never play? Basketball? anybody can shoot a hoop. Track? I'm pretty sure he was running for a very long time for his wrestling now. BUT GUESS WHAT! Nobody has ever just performed a double leg takedown (good or bad) without somebody showing you how to do it and countless drilling.
Sure you would bud XD You say you can run fast, well that's what you would need to do if you dared wrestling me...run in the opposite direction of me lol Any wrestler for that matter.
im just saying he not a good athlete and when he won the ncca he had the weakest weight...im not saying hes a bad wrestler just a awful athlete with great training also how you going to judge me what kind of athletic ability do you have? what have you done?
No one cares that your dad played football or that your brother wrestled. Lets see you wrestle a 4X All American or an Olympic Champion and see how you do. Hell, lets see you wrestle me. I wrestled at 112 two years then 119 senior year. I would drop you so fast kid lol

*most humble not most humblest
David Taylor is by far my favorite all time collegiate wrestler but he wasn't gracious in defeat here.
Matt Rostosky Pfft! He shook his hand like he always does! Do you want him to just not be disappointed? Its his dream to be number 1 not number 2... he always comes so so so so so so close and loses every time to Jordan.

TheKayanna12 don’t be that fool
Why do people hate on wrestling and wrestlers? They are and if not the strongest, fastest, and all around most athletic people in the world.
David Taylor has a long, well established wrestling career ahead of him. That said, welcome to the big leagues kid!
This aged like wine
Watch this in .5 speed. Best commentary ever
No
on my high school team only 1 football player made it through pre-season in 4 years (and he turned out to be pretty good). All the rest lasted a few weeks at best, because wrestling workouts were so much harder than football. That was a half-century ago, but it doesn’t look like wrestling has gotten any easier….
It hasnt is still hard as fuck
@3:34 the best ankle pick defense I have seen in my life by Burroughs. The man is a legend
3:14 (commentator)- " If I would have wrestled Jordan Boroughs, I think I would probably lose..." Me: "Probably???"
Awesome match! They kept it well simple
Jordan is one of the few wrestlers who can pull off gold shoes
Did that commentator just say that he would "probably" lose against burroughs the first time?
Probably the 50th or 100th time as well!
That commentator is Cael Sanderson olympic gold medalist.
I don't see him beating jordan to many years not wrestling competitively
Excellent, beautiful high level wrestling... Like boxing, styles make fights, and so far this year, the only person to come anywhere close to Jordan Burroughs was Kyle Dake, and they're on the same team, incredible!
Great Match
Taylor has a balance of strength speed and explosiveness and just the face that he has made it into the national team trials shows his how good of a wrestler and athlete the man is
Wow, very impressed with Taylor. This is such great experience for him. Burroughs is the bets p4p in the world right now IMO, so to hang in there with him is quite an accomplishment.
Nice match jordan burroughs and david talor are both good wrestlers
Haha you guys get so excited I love it!
Good match!
Yes exactly, finishing second to Burroughs is nothing to be ashamed of. Losing matches like that will make Taylor better next year.
How did taylor get that 1st point?
World class athlete...
Hatsoff to you jordan
holy shit that was quite the fight david put up!!!!! dake and taylor both had good matches agianst jordan
I love jordan burroughs takedowns that is what makes him a great olympics champion I think taylor was a good competitor
Is it me or are that color commentators in some kinda weird competition?
David taylor wrestled really tough and great towards the end. Seemed like he was getting better more in the match,
Good match
What shoes is Burroughs wearing?
This went about exactly how it should have. Taylor is one of the other best wrestlers from the U.S. around this weight class, which makes him on of the best in the world.

this shows you how good burroughs really is I mean taylor 2 years ago teched his kid in the finals and in this match you can see that Jordans on a different level and pretty much fucking destroyed him even though taylor is an amazing wrestler.
whos that one commentator for this match
What's wrong w the scoring 2 takedowns and only 2 points ?
I was wondering the same. Maybe that's how they were scoring back then.
I was impressed with Taylor's performance
Jordan, he's the guy to beat in 74kg weight class, for at list 6+ years.!! Very hard, good luck guys.!!
at 1:39 Burroughs wins a td by taking 2 'leaps' to travel a full 360 degrees and end up behind Taylor. amazing.I'm a big fan of DT but Burroughs is superhuman sometimes.
Yeah, and how is that?
Phenomenal wrestling at 3:40
Burroughs is best of today. Taylor is best of the future.
JB just won his 2nd World Championship last week in Hungary.
Why are takedowns worth 1 point here? In most freestyle videos they are worth 2 points. Also, why do the points start over during the 2nd period rather than continuing form the 1st period?
This was before a significant rule change when UWW was still FILA
4:55 what?
really wanna see Burroughs versus Dake
lol i love how this kid is arguing this. that if cael sanderson coached him he would beat him? not in a million years would he. until he is a 4x Ohio state champ, 3 time finalist and national champ, THEN maybe he can say something. but until then he needs to keep his mouth shut.
Its funny how the commentators are eating and talking
Great match. Had to put it on mute half way thru tho. Those guys were horrible. They should pursue another career
3:37 amazing
especially since he's finishing second to Jordan Burroughs
Even if it was the "weakest weight class" every person there is an athlete. These are people are recruited to a Division 1 school. These are people who train their entire lives, they are strong, they are fast, they are conditioned, and they function like that with one meal a day(if at all). And I hate your argument earlier about a wrestler not being able to come and play football or baseball(because they are not real athletes) there is no such thing as simply stepping on a mat. Wrestling is life
1-0? really? 1-0??? Seemed like 10-9 at least! That was more action than in all Burroughs' World FS matches added together.
lol at the comentators... they are the best
2ndasylum is probably junior varsity
Why arent they wearing headgear
at international levels headgear is optional. in scholastic or collegiate headgear is required
he can bulk up no problem.....its the strength that he lacks is the problem vs the burroughs, dakes,howes of the world...........if he drops a weight, he's a beast
Taylor did good wrestling an olympic champ
I thought the same thing lol but that's Lance Palmer talking, he's capable of beating him.
David Taylor is doing better than any of Burroughs opponents at the World FS in Hungary
One does not become a 4x All American with effort and talent.
Kinda wanna see Kyle Dake wrestle Burroughs
I wonder if these guys and other wrestlers watch these videos and not care much for they way it's comentated?
You guys gotta do a better job at spotting the trolls.
Taylor was about to turn that into 2 points at 5:32 and win the match. Why the ref stopped the action is beyond me.
The shoes aren't yellow there gold not sort of yellow gold " what the heck😂
Taylor is tough
With all respect to borroughs, it seems that dake would beat him, he took him on to over time after an overtime match right before
The problem Have with Jordan Burroughs is that he has already won a bunch of matches and it would have been much more equitable had he let his opponent win some. But no, he had to be selfish and win just one more.
I think it looks like Burroughs is not doing his best in this match.
*dake not fake
i dont even play basketball... wrestling,football,baseball
I think Kyle Dake can take it to Jordan Burroughs.
Best athletes are prob gymnast
Haha this guy forgot that taylor wrestles a gold medalist everyday in cael sanderson
what state are you from
thats what im saying i was just saying that hes not going to ever win a gold....
if your so hard wrestle my brother hes just a freshman in collage
Burroughs had to work to beat Taylor. The entire world is still puzzled as to how Dake ever beat Taylor. You can easily tell Taylor is the much better wrestler
The guy who said that fake could be beaten by the Iranians should look up rumble on the rails
Ran 5.3 (8th)Hey Im a late bloomer don't hate im getting a lot faster also im a linebacker that weighs 160.... there no why you weigh enough to go d1 and and run a 4.9...anyway my dad played d1 football and my brother wrestles d1 how are you going to judge my athletic ability?
This is not even fair haha
ohh so close
taylor should drop down a weight class
commentators are annoying. I know what a double leg is. and a pin. id rather hear the audiences reactions, it adds some intensity.
Ok, what do you mean, 2ndasylum, sports he could never play? Basketball? anybody can shoot a hoop. Track? I'm pretty sure he was running for a very long time for his wrestling now. BUT GUESS WHAT! Nobody has ever just performed a double leg takedown (good or bad) without somebody showing you how to do it and countless drilling.
they would kill themselves lol, im not a wrestler, i train bjj, i wanna get into it though. Mad respect for you guys...
Prove it then, beat me. I bet you can't ^_^
Burroughs would beat Dake! Dake is great, but Burroughs is the greatest
that's 2 far
Sure you would bud XD
You say you can run fast, well that's what you would need to do if you dared wrestling me...run in the opposite direction of me lol
Any wrestler for that matter.
not if you want to be the best, second is a disgrace
announcers are annoying.
Michigan ^_^
Burroughs beats Dake 9 outta 10 times
*fact* not face
I never said I wanted to wrestle your brother, I'm talking about you.
You're a joke lol
im just saying he not a good athlete and when he won the ncca he had the weakest weight...im not saying hes a bad wrestler just a awful athlete with great training also how you going to judge me what kind of athletic ability do you have? what have you done?
r the rules different at this level of wrestling because i think this ref is fucking annoying he wont let them wrestle he stops them when it gets good
Yeah, it's freestyle. Not the same thing as collegiate.
2nd asylum u are very cocky
these commentators are horrible.....
Also... Learn to spell
I don't care to wrestle you its fine... I would beat you u haven't done anything haha 0 state titles lol
No one cares that your dad played football or that your brother wrestled. Lets see you wrestle a 4X All American or an Olympic Champion and see how you do. Hell, lets see you wrestle me. I wrestled at 112 two years then 119 senior year. I would drop you so fast kid lol
7 years have gone by and the 2nd asylum doesnt sound any smarter lmao
