Maddox (it's McArthur) won the Georgia 6A 120 lb. state title in 2022, finishing 50-4 on the season---his 9TH GRADE SEASON!! He is a seriously skilled competitor. His opponent here, Ethan, is a tough competitor as well, winning 2/3rds of his matches in significant competitions. Ethan had Maddox in some trouble until Maddox reversed him. GREAT video work, yet again. You even zoomed in further, and seamlessly, at key moments.
As an update, and response to some replies, Maddox finished 2nd in the state in 2023 (his sophomore year) with a 49-10 record. He wasn't able to repeat as state champ, losing the Georgia 7A championship match in sudden victory to Blue Stiffler whom Maddox had beaten 6-5 earlier in the season. Maddox doesn't graduate from high school until 2025.
A lot of coaches tell their wrestlers to keep wrestling until you get pulled off because if you let go and its the wrong whistle thats your fault but if u keep on them they will touch and tell you to stop
Excellent leg riding. Excellent photography. Excellent wrestling strategy. Red (anklet, gray singlet) got all the takedowns, even though the last one was super difficult. He could have let the Green (blue singlet) get the takedown or just stall, and he would have won the match. The only coaching point which is very minor, Red could work a few moves to get some back points (Near Fall), such as a Power Half Nelson or a Crossface to a Leg Turk. This is very minor, Maddox is an exceptional leg rider and wrestler, just like Midwest Wrestle is and exceptional photographer.
"The only coaching point which is very minor, Red could work a few moves to get some back points" - Why take the risk of working for back points when you can stall on top riding, looking like you are working a pinning move? That is how we teach/reward folkstyle in the U.S.
Head gear is not required in this league/tournament. It is required in Middle School, High School and College Wrestling when you are wrestling under NFHS or NCAA rules.
Here is what annoys me with this sport. The coach is standing there telling them exactly what to do. This needs to stop. They wrestlers need to think for themselves and make their own moves, not have someone standing there "grab his right hand, take his left leg. twist your body".......
I never even heard the coach at all... It's those stupid noisy whistles. I wouldn't want the coach to 'hold my hand' but I'd rather want those whistles to stop.

To the guy who said the coach should not be telling the wrestlers what to do...duh... coaches do the same thing in basketball, football and other sports. It's just more subtle.
Penn State is the dominant team in college wrestling for the past 10 years. Collegiate wrestling is the same as this match with a few, minor differences.
I had a friend who got an elbow to his temple during a wrestling match (by accident). That ended in the hospital: with a ruptured blood vessel in his brain that required emergency surgery. FFS! See to it that the kids use protective headgear AT ALL TIMES. They are not supposed to be there just for decoration.
@@MidwestWrestle I have no doubt people are taking stills from your videos and posting them on Tumblr, Pinterest, etc, any place there are wrestling pictures
With all due respect, but this is the weirdest sport I have ever seen, it just doesn’t make any sense to me. It also looks kinda violent, this two are too young for this.
It descends from one of the most ancient activities practiced in the Ancient Greece and Roman Empire, it has a lot of rule and it is basically a feat of strenght but it also takes knowledge and balance. But it might seem a bit brutal if you approach it for the first time.
Have you ever played sports? They're all violent in different ways. Combat sports teach people how to control themselves, and handle violence/aggression. It's not for you, so be it. Don't just shit all over something you've never experienced yourself. Take a wrestling/boxing/martial arts class for yourself maybe.

they are not fighting....but thanks for showing how the inability to read affects what one eats...
@@rsingsm People are encouraged by others everyday, that is why we should always strive to be our best.
Geez how do the whistles not mess these guys up I thought several different times the ref whistled them to stop
A lot of coaches tell their wrestlers to keep wrestling until you get pulled off because if you let go and its the wrong whistle thats your fault but if u keep on them they will touch and tell you to stop
was that some kind of shoulder brace the one in the gray singlet was wearing
Yes, he probably tweaked his shoulder in an earlier match. That brace can stabilize the joint.
I’m surprised not more eye pokes don’t happen in these matches
They don't because good officials warn, then penalize for hands in the face, which is illegal.
Such a good match - Maddox is a tenacious wrestler. I enjoy watching him...he took some bumps from that guy in blue.
Are they not required to wear protective head gear?
No, you don't need to. Some guys wear it to protect their ears--but it's not required.
Head gear isn't required by this organization. If they were wrestling for their schools in a scholastic match, it would be.
Their ears will be ruined for life….😮
Exceptional clarity ! 👍 Great match.

excellent job to both young men....great foot work and strong leg riding i think we got future Olympians here. !!!

2:57 wow that was very close. The other guy should've just put his hips down and arch up, not "step over". Coach should stop yelling out random moves
Fantastic camera quality. What type of camera do you use?
Thank you. It is a full-frame cinema line camera from Sony.
Maddox is a beast ! Fast and furious beast. Congrats
Big fan of Maddox. Both are great.
Best match I have seen,shame we don’t have the same in England
Too violent?
@@fredingram3731 Of course not. Wrestling isn't violent, it just isn't a popular sport in England.
Mcarther really knew how to stick on to his opponent in a very tight hold. Impossible to escape.
Why don’t these guys have ear protection on?
I wrestled 16 years and never once worn ear guards. Single leg drops, arm drags, no tie ups ever. Circle, circle circle, shoot or drag.

No one listens so why do you?
It's distracting but I hardly think the wrestlers listen anyway.And why are the coaches overweight?Bad example.

Both good wrestlers, but Maddox had more weight and knew how to use it. Good match, though.
🤦♂️ They’re in the same weight class and they weigh in immediately before the event. They don’t have a day to pack on lbs………
@@hayden7198 According to the official record, Maddox McArther weighed in at 115.0 lbs., while Ethan Olson weighed in at 118.4 lbs.
