      @@sarahelizavoldy no, your logic is flawed. They're booing not because Raisman's score is 15.6, but because they feel like Ponor's performance was underscored.

      @@CountryCowboy008 I wasn't saying that, so don't go there. I'm saying Ponor's fans booing simply because they thought Ponor should have won is essentially booing Raisman. And it is because the mindset is about wanting your favorite person to win, not execution. Ponor did not deserve gold, even though she has amazing lines and is a great gymnast.

    • @CountryCowboy008
      @CountryCowboy008 4 ปีที่แล้ว +27

      @@sarahelizavoldy again, it's flawed. Wanting someone to win doesn't always mean that you don't want the winner to win. Of course they will root for Ponor, she's a legend and what she has achieved is a feat more than getting a gold and, during that time, she's the most recent gymnast to have won 3 gold medals in a single game (only bested by Biles in 2016 with 4). So yes, they're not "essentially booing" Raisman. Because if you believe so, then you should also say that Raisman is celebrating that she kicked Ponor out of the podium during their tiebreaker in Beam Finals. Would you say that?

    I have so much respect for Jordyn after rewatching this Olympics. As the reigning world all around champ, she had a reasonable expectation for this Olympics to be her moment. Even when she failed to qualify for the all around, she pulled together a great performance for her team in the team final, and was incredibly supportive of her teammates in the all around and event finals. Even in this final, she still stands here cheering for Aly because she knows Aly can win, with no hard feelings about Gabby and Aly keeping her out of the all around. Jordyn did her best, and the two per country rule screwed her. But she was a great competitor with some truly fantastic sportsmanship. Compare her attitude to Komova's (during team, all around, and event finals), and there is truly no comparing their sportmanship. Aliya was the Russian's sportsman, and she outshone Komova because of that. Medals aren't everything, and the behavior of several athletes at these games really showed that. Kudos to Aliya and Jordyn for their well deserved golds and sportsmanship under pressure, and congratulations to Aly for this floor gold.

When Simone competes there is literally a 95% chance she will win unless something crazy happens like in Rio when she got bronze on the beam. She is an incredible gymnast that deserves the recognition she gets however I feel like all gymnasts competing in huge competitions deserve recognition because what they are doing is still astonishing even if it isn't at the level that Simone is

    omg CLEARLY aly was the best on this day. Stuck landings plus good form in the tumbling. She deserved at least a 9 in execution. But even if Cata had scored a 9.1 and Aly a 9.0, Aly would still have won by 2 tenths because of her difficulty score that gave her such an advantage in this final. I don't think those who are complaining truly appreciate the difficulty of Aly's first pass, tbh.

    She got last place, but she shrugged, then SMILED and waved at the crowd! Truly an Olympian to admire that she can make a mistake and not get too upset about it to forget how amazing and lucky she is to be so successful.
    I had just come from rewatching the vault final and decided I didn’t like Sandra for beating McKayla. But McKayla was so rude about losing that it made me sad to see someone I thought I admired act that way when she lost. Coming to watch this, I didn’t want to like Sandra. But watching her gracious reaction to last place made me realize I could never not like her. She’s awesome. I’m gonna go watch her other routines now!

    6+ yrs later and Mihai's fist pump during the replay gets me every time. Aly's leaps, her form, and those killer landings here were the best she looked (IMO). Dont get me wrong, what she did in '16 was unbelievable, but this routine is my fave from her. Stellar. Also, this routine was masterfully choreographed for her style of gymnastics. Perfection.

  • @theonly1likeme
    @theonly1likeme 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Aly was so smart. She watched what happened to the other gymnasts when they landed in those corners and how overly springy the floor was, and she stayed far away from the corners so that she didn't go out of bounds. Not only did she win off of talent, her wisdom played a big part.
    Update: In fact it looks like others followed suit. I feel bad for the first two performers. The others probably had their coaches warning them that they needed to adjust.

    • @Triple_Y_turn
      @Triple_Y_turn 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      They all competed on this floor in qualifications and most of them kn team/all around finals. They all knew. However they can't always stay away from the corners, depending on the length of the tumbling pass

    Ponor's start value was only a 6.2 not a 6.4. And to be honest very few if any in the floor final can dance. It's about the tumbles. Everyone knows that even if they don't like it. No since worrying about it now. Its over. it's just a sport. Not the end of the world.

    • @eapoe23
      @eapoe23 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Actually it was 6.4 but in the final it was downgraded either because of her quad spin not being completely round or the connection on her second pass or something like that

      lexi waters Pretty sure if there was no dancing then they would lose a lot of points. So contrary to your beliefs dancing does count to the score. It would be like watching the men compete all they do are the tumbles and a jump every now and then.

    • @bergercookie
      @bergercookie 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This is the plain truth and it comes down to the fact that artistry and dancing can be so subjective. As with the technical aspect of very difficult tumbling is much easier and more fair to see and deduct mistakes. That’s why no one even can close to Simone Biles in 2016 , her coaches knew exactly what they’re doing with her insanely difficult tumbling and super high start values. I feel it’s kind of a shame I agree artistry should hold more value than it does now but I don’t make the rules lol
