I don’t think I’ve ever seen a professional athlete, especially as one as elite in their own sport as Jordan Burroughs, that is so humble, grateful, and still amazed by their own success. This guy is a serious role model of mine.
Thank you Ben Askren for introducing me to wrestling. It was the first time I heard of Jordan and since then I watched over 15 of his matches. I now even started wrestling class (2 classes so far) and I love it. Let’s promote this sport !!!!
Love this guy. The only problem is that he sees the struggle of his parents as a weakness. Instead of seeing it as perseverance, commitment, love and honoring of drive of his ancestors. The drive to overcome, match and conquer the oppression, disadvantage, doubt, hatred, marginalization faced by his fathers and mothers. And inspite of it all they fulfilled their promise to their ancestors and destiny...to give the world a better them with better opportunity...Jordan. That it's name. Honor your ancestors by remembering and honoring their struggle, sacrifice, survival and success.
Jesus fuck, this man is the biggest of underdogs. So many mishaps, so many falls. And yet he stood up again and again, and NEVER GAVE UP. I just heard of him, since I'm a mma fan, and I'm so glad I did. What a man, what a MOTIVATION, what a CHAMPION, what a GOAT! Thank you for being you, thank you for existing Jordan Burroughs. 🙇 Cheers from Macedonia!
AWESOMENESS!!!... I have nothing but the utmost respect for his gifts, talents but more importantly his work ethic, toughness, internal fortitude and character! All incredibly admirable! Keep it going Jordan Burroughs!
My son is starting his senior yr in high school, he’s been wrestling for two yrs and is has worked extremely hard and work hard and is really good, anyway I’m redoing his room for him and I’m making him a metal board with a wrestling saying I’m on it so I asked him what his favorite one was and he said mom actually how much room do you have , I said as much as you need why? He said I want this! And he played me the first minute of this , and well it won’t fit on the board so instead I’m making to cover his wall!!! You are truly an inspiration to my son and many many others, from a wrestling mom, a true wrestling team mom that has been to every match, except one tournament, I broke my back but still tried to go, I’m there not only for my son but every wrestler on the team , I just want to say thank you!!! It hardly seems enough but that’s all I can muster at this moment just a heart felt THANK YOU!!
Jordan Burroughs came to my schools wrestling room in his wifes hometown with Rich Perry to train a little last december. It was fascinatimg to watch him wrestle and train in the same room as him, even better to talk one on one with him. Great guy, humble and a generous person, thank you Jordan
It's incredible to be able to keep putting in the dedication required to stay on THE task of THE GRIND, day after day all these years. The man has extreme depth of character. His parents, his wife, his coach, long term TEAM EFFORT
Wow, I was down in the dumps a day before thanksgiving, arguing on the pitty pot. This young man gave me inspiration to keep moving forward. God bless you, your family and great career.
Whenever I want to show my wrestlers, or my own son the best example of a wrestlers technique, work ethic, or class, I think of JB and Cael. Great people and wrestlers!
I love this man. He embodies what it takes to lead his nation and represent the greatest country in the world. The United States of America. He makes me proud. I love watching him kick a$&! He’s a role model. I teach my kids about him. All the respect in the world Jordan.
"Nobody is born A Warrior, in exactly the same way that Nobody is born an average man. We make our'selves into one or the other. When A Warrior learns to stop the internal dialogue everything becomes possible. The most far-fetched schemes become attainable. A Warrior takes responsibility for his acts, for the most trivial of acts. An average man acts out his thoughts, and never takes responsibility for what he does." You are no average man: *You are A Warrior* Salute
This helps everyone realize that the problems we are facing are happening to everyone it's just different for each individual and the great ones push through and become legends
I wrestle all the time. Although I know I’m not gonna get anywhere, my three years of wrestling and I haven’t even won a match in the state qualifiers. This story really did inspire me and JB is an amazing wrestler. It’s amazing how dedicated he is to the sport and I respect him so much.
Jordan is a very humbling man! Never got to meet him but I do remember going to the Nebraska wrestling camp every summer(from 2009-2013)with Independence High based out of TN and the clinics are phenomenal!! Not sure if anyone remembers his name but McCoy Newberg was a teammate of mine that graduated 2 years before me and he wrestled for Nebraska for a short while. Very fortunate to have coach Grindstaff in high school!! He would sacrifice anything to help his wrestlers get to the next level. Praying for big things to happen for Nebraska wrestling and Jordan as well!!!
He admitted a lot in this. True man. Going from not putting in much effort to becoming an Olympic champion. Takes a lot to have that & blow through it to get to the highest level
A truly great wrestler who has represented America well in the Olympics and World Championships! I look forward to seeing the wrestling match with Dake at the next US Trials to see who"ll represent America in the Olympic Games that got postponed to next summer. Burroughs and Dake are both awesome competitors. I wish them both luck and may the better man win!
Because of wrestling I dropped 30 pounds.I went from 210lbs last year to 180.Now I'm aiming to get to 170 and i will do my best to get a world title.I know it's a "stupid" dream, but if I put my heart into it, I'll get there
I've watched this the last 3 or 4 years in a row because it's so inspiring to see where he started then listen to his story threw high-school being a runner up then winning the State championship in New Jersey but not being recruited that was shocking I went to high school and wrestle at Paulsboro in New Jersey and I know how big wrestling is out here that's crazy anyway knowing how hard it is going to college your freshman year getting beat when your use to winning but sticking with it to keep grinning keep fighting seeing him take that next step it gives me chills Took more than a step he ran all the way to the top not just college but represents us and being the best in the world and stayed there for so many years..WOW what a ture league and genuine Good dude who will go down as one of the all time greats he's a icon and someone you can point to as proof look what's possible your going to have ups and downs but you pick yourself up learn and keep fighting grown you will get better at anything you want in life let's go
You are my inspiration you are why I get up and do this everyday you helped me become third in the state of Florida my first year happy thanksgiving keep doing what you do
I normally don’t put a newer guy on a p4p list, but Jordan has proved himself to be one of the best. He was the best wrestler of the decade, and he has more achievements than most
Jordan is one of the best in history of wrestling, indeed one of the best people i ever go cross too.! Idk if i should thank lolo of this as well, but, i think this is how he born, a simple guy who became A legend.!! ✊🏽
Sweet video! Well done! Interesting connection pertaining to Jordan's wife. She went to American University. Here's an interesting connection to NYS Sec 4 high school wrestling: Josh Glenn won D1 nationals. He's from Sec 4. Also from Sec 4 is Kyle Dake, Jon Jones, Troy Nickerson, JP O'Connor, etc. That place is a NYS wrestling hotbed. One of the Worthing bros -- from Tioga might be the next big thing out of that area.
Ahh many I loved wrestling and our team was always the best conditioned. We loved seeing the other guy get tired, breaking guys. When matches would go to over time you we always won... you would see the other guy huffing and puffing and you would be the first one back to the line just waiting... ugh it was awesome.
Jordan Burroughs' story is a true underdog story. Respect.
@tony Patton woahh...that's quite alot...but i'm afraid you overexaggerated a bit...anyway, I hope your son is successful
underdog? good one
How is he an underdog? Bc he’s black? Nah gtfo
tony Patton bro chill with the question marks. Do you know what a period is?
Bob Lee Swagger underdog because based on his high school career his path wasn’t expected. Stop making things about race!
As an Iranian wrestling fan, you're my champion of the world, respected as our champ, the one and only Jordan Burroughs.
Respect 💪 bridging gaps through the love of the greatest sport in the world. Much love from New York!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a professional athlete, especially as one as elite in their own sport as Jordan Burroughs, that is so humble, grateful, and still amazed by their own success. This guy is a serious role model of mine.

I cant find where you lied
Thats a little closed minded but wrestling is fantastic
@@wither_v9632 it literally is the oldest sport. It being the best is a matter of taste, but that's his view
In fact wrestling is THE oldest sport. People have wrestled since ancient Geece
Legit in the bible
he is 100% classy. much love from Australia
wrestling in australia sucks so much =( i wish it was as big as america
PorraCaralho I knw right bro, but it is only getting better
JB...you are an amazing ambassador of USA wrestling and a true hero to wrestlers around the world.
Straight up Stud
I love Jordan Burroughs a true warrior. i will one day make history just like him

I'm 38 and you always grew up hearing about Dan Gable.
Jordan is that dude now, too.
He's a living legend.

Honor your ancestors by remembering and honoring their struggle, sacrifice, survival and success.
He does honor them, his parents were a big part of this film. He respects the hell out of them for the struggle they've gone through.
He doesn't see it as a weakness. He just doesn't want to end up like them; can you really blame him for not wanting to get stuck in the rate race?
ive been a fan of JB for a few years now, but i never realized how much of an underdog story he had. inspirational to say the least.
Best double of all time!!!!
This is literally my first wrestling documentary since I only heard about this beast through mma on point. What does double mean?
harlemdeni he means a double leg take down, it is Jordan’s signature move. If you do not know what that is you can always look it up.
Power blast double no one can stop
When he looked back at how the colleges didn’t want him that hit me so hard The hurt in him cake out
Jesus fuck, this man is the biggest of underdogs. So many mishaps, so many falls. And yet he stood up again and again, and NEVER GAVE UP.

Out of all of the accomplishments I think the one that is the most admirable is how he interacts with his kids.
Bro 3 hrs ago yet your like. A top 20 comment
This is hands down one of the best, if not the best documentary I've ever seen. Just goes to show how far hard work can get you. Great work FLO ✊
Dude if you liked this doc you should watch the iowa wrestling espn doc too
No excuses, no complaining, articulate, charismatic, Jordan is a real champion. After watching this docu he is one of my favorite athletes.

What about Dave Schultz?
I love this man. He embodies what it takes to lead his nation and represent the greatest country in the world. The United States of America. He makes me proud. I love watching him kick a$&! He’s a role model. I teach my kids about him. All the respect in the world Jordan.

I agree, for the most part. But some folks are biologically disadvantaged. Some cannot be a warrior.
This helps everyone realize that the problems we are facing are happening to everyone it's just different for each individual and the great ones push through and become legends

The beginning was very inspirational
By far the best story ever,it’s his mental game that will make him a legend
Hi from Dagestan. 👍
So many sports fans may never know about this man
Spectacular story Jordan; you inspire all of us.
Thank you.
I know I’m only 14 and a second year wrestler but he is one of my favorite wrestlers right now
@@johnnysins8053 Kids love mentioning their age. Just let the kid live lol.
Jordan is the epitome of a superstar. Phenomenal competitor and an even better role model!
He admitted a lot in this. True man. Going from not putting in much effort to becoming an Olympic champion. Takes a lot to have that & blow through it to get to the highest level
Jordan gets it. He’s the peoples champion
Gaethje, Chandler, Gregor Gillespie, and Lance Palmar crazy to see all these mma guys
Camp counselor in 2010 he’s such a humble guy and a unreal competitor
UNL graduate here, many people may not even know where Nebraska is, but we got Jordan and Terrence "bud" Crawford. Proud to be from NE.

Great story, great champion.
How does this not have over a million views? Great work @floWrestling.
One of the best ever. #Burroughsforever
Jordan's name is always gonna be mentioned. His double alone will keep his name around, as it should.

Good luck. Any progress so far?
He’s still evolving the older he gets it’s insane

Took more than a step he ran all the way to the top not just college but represents us and being the best in the world and stayed there for so many years..WOW what a ture league and genuine Good dude who will go down as one of the all time greats he's a icon and someone you can point to as proof look what's possible your going to have ups and downs but you pick yourself up learn and keep fighting grown you will get better at anything you want in life let's go

“i was hungry, not for victory but for food”😂😂
All these mma name drops... Justin Gaethje, Lance Palmer, Gregory Gillespie.. got me pumped for another sport. Wrestling
There has never been an underdog so dominant
Is that the pre fame memer himself?
I normally don’t put a newer guy on a p4p list, but Jordan has proved himself to be one of the best. He was the best wrestler of the decade, and he has more achievements than most
What a beautiful human being!!! As good of a wrestler JB is I think he is an even better person!!
I don't know a thing about wrestling, and I'm not too sure how I got here! I love this guys attitude though, and wish him all the best.
one of my all time favorite Wrestlers.
I'm Iranian btw he is always loved and respected by iranian wrestling fans. Taylor is taking his mantle.
AWESOME STORY!!! AND A GREAT FAMILY MAN.
Prolly one of the coolest dudes I’ve ever met.
His biggest and greatest talent is his humbleness and love for his fans.
If u don't like wrestling take look of this and u will love it after .this is real hard work ...
