Suriano is one of those guys who might be slightly insane, but also has the mentality to potentially be truly, truly great. He's a different kind of dude.
@@smirfbroil6934 And that's necessary to reach a level like that in any sport, go look at michael jordan, or a baseball all star, or any other of the best athletes.

I'm almost 50yrs old and this just gave me even more fuel to keep training hard. Not because of olympic dreams or anything at his level. Just because I CAN.
I'm 55 and had a near death experienced auto accident. I love working out, and haven't been able to due to 4 total joint replacements. Both knees, left hip, left shoulder, and a femur plate. I miss it so much, it's killing me.
@@jeffdarnell7942 I feel you brother! I just turned 50 and need to replace both my knees from years of wrestling, football and Jiu Jitsu has finally left nothing but bone on bone. You hang in there and keep grinding, even if you start with some long walks, weights and eventually just roll to work on your technique.. GOD bless and I hope everything works out for you health wise.. BIG E..
Not really man wrestlers come of as crazy but most are highly intelligent especially the top guys…but even the ones that make it to his level we understand the mindset it’s different…we are really confident because when your training wrestling year after year it makes your mentality unbreskable the training we go through most don’t see…we workout until we can’t breath no more type shit haha
He’s already beaten them all in his head. Mad respect ✊ to a guy who understands that you have to find out who YOU are first, in the deepest way by exposing your weaknesses in order to truly become fearless. Skills can be matched, but mental toughness and the ability to harness that are the real secret. He gets that. Very few do. Much respect ✊
"Whoever it is , whatever medal or accolade they have, they're gonna learn a hard lesson about themselves, it's just that simple, I-i will win." I fucking love this kid. God bless you Nick
I don’t think it’s arrogance. I think he’s just got a very unique outlook and perspective on things. He’s confident, no doubt but it’s more like an iconoclast than an arrogant jerk. He’s one of a kind and you gotta appreciate that. Dude can back it up too!

Ive heard the same from a buddy- exact words you said. he's like one of those 1 of 10000 weird people who get into a craft and they completely dominate it.
Suriano has been internally driven since birth. We used to say he popped out wearing headgear. He was winning tough at 6 years old. His parents were amazingly supportive. He started private lessons with Damian Logan at a young age and continued with him for years. But Nick brought the foundation from the beginning that his coaches and parents were able to build on. And he is a true student of the game. Driven really doesn’t even come close to describing his attitude. He’s never one for small talk. Mostly all business. My son grew up and wrestled in north jersey so was in the same room with Nick on and off. Unfortunate it didn’t work out with Cael (I don’t know the story - none of my business really) but obviously it worked out at Rutgers.
It's also so heavily tied to education, that even the dumbest wrestler at the highest level likely has a liberal arts degree and the ability to put together a sentence and read one as well. Sadly boxing does not have the same reputation...
@@freedomtd This is true. I stg I saw the dumbest, or most troubled kids enter the wrestling room, then exit that season a better person. I was one of those stupid troubled kids lol
Thanks for taking me back about 45 years ago when I was a HS wrestler. My father was from Europe, so never brought up with football, basketball, baseball, etc, but liked the idea of one-on-one wrestling some other dude. Did well enough that I varsity lettered in my freshman year and had a blast in tournaments. Thanks for the memories.
I think the most impressive part of this, is the fact that he was so confident to follow his vision. Dont get me wrong, everything he does is impressive, but the fact that I am sure he had multiple mentors telling him what his path should be, yet he went "seeking" HIS vision. That is TRUE greatness.
Can't imagine training for something for your whole life, shifting your wrestling style, have the event pushed back, then miss the trials because you're positive for covid. Especially when you know if you compete, you'll win. 2024 for Nick Suriano.
This reminds of the first time I saw a pack of greyhounds running. Getting to see something or someone do the thing they were born to do is a thing of beauty. Best of luck to this man and his journey.
Haven't worked out in 3 weeks, saw this video and it reignited my motivation to keep going. I just got up and emptied my tank and went as hard as I could and it felt GREAT. Why did I ever stop exercising lol, it feels so good being tired af, sweaty, hot and blood pumped. I feel alive!
Something about the pain of a workout just feels better than an orgasm. And the feeling of soreness afterwards as you down a protein shake just lets you know that your efforts will be rewarded
Im from England, Wrestling is pretty much non existent as a spectator sport over here. I have never watched wresting or ever really been exposed to it. I have to say, these two short docs on Suriano are brilliant. The kid is fascinating, his mindset resonates with me a lot, he is very competitive but also clearly very free and creative. Ive enjoy them so much that it sparked an interest in wresting in general, now I know a few more names, a few legends of the sport etc and am hoping to start watching as a fan. The fact is every great thing is built on a story. Sell someone a story and you can sell them anything. Telling the stories of these young men only propels the sport forward, it makes it more personal. I will be following Nicks final year at Michigan and hopefully through this I can gain an understanding of the sport and follow it in a deeper and more consistent way Thanks Flo, this was great. Please do more, im sure there are many more young men with a lot to say and a story to tell. I think US Wrestling just gained another fan from across the pond God bless
They made a good point at the end of the video. NIL has made so many college athletes more valuable in college than they will be post college. Nick at the same weight class as Spencer Lee would truly be a blockbuster and maybe the best matchup in college since Dake vs. Taylor.
@@whoknows8436 it seems SOREiano has put in the work but has he made the necessary Eddie Bravos to body shot his way to the Nikola Teslas. Dake Burroughs said "The Kundalini made Robbie Lawler look like a professional gauntlet empire and we will have to wait to find out if Khabib can Nick his way to the limits of the "great gaurd of the olympic trummles"". We will see next year if the sorest man on earth, Nick SOREiano can change the way we see wrestling in 2022. I hope the Biology 303 is right when they said ". Im still wondering if Yumba Combles is going to Suriano his way to the top of the Wreslting comeplesies if Nick can really make it happen.
@@whoknows8436 Nobody becomes the best in sports without believing they’re the best. His attitude is the correct attitude for anyone that ever wants to be a champion.
I've played game near every sport growing up as a kid but when I got involved in wrestling in my preteens and all throughout high school and college it changes your life like nothing else. The amount of self-reflection self-confidence and self-awareness you have to have to be an elite wrestler people can't even imagine. I was never on this type of level probably not even close on my best day but I was a decent division too college wrestler and I can tell you this it was the best time of my life. Nobody is mentally tougher than a wrestler
went to highschool with Nick. swear to God this is a true story, first day of high school literally the first day where it’s not even class and you just meet your teachers. We’re in math class like 10:30 in the morning he’s one row in front of me. He pushes his chair back when the teacher turns around and starts doing dips on the table, banged out like 25 on the spot
That’s a very impressive young man. Not a big wrestling person but I’m sure glad I watched this. I don’t find him to be arrogant one bit, he has the right amount of confidence that he should have. He even made me see competition in a spiritual way. Impressive
im watching this for the third time sitting in a rehab for drugs and alcohol after i fucked up my life during covid and stopped competing in muay thai this man just gave me so much motivation to get back in and train harder
As a Brit, we don’t do wrestling, most brits think of wrestling as WWE, but Nick Suriano got me into the sport of wrestling, my kids also watch Nick, great wrestler, one hell of a human
I miss wrestling so much. It's really a sport u have to love. There's no money or fame u have to be a little crazy to be great. I remember running before school trying to make weight there's a feeling of a one on one victory that's hard to compare.
seems more like polar opposits to me, alex honnold doesnt really strive to be the best nor does he care, he explicitely stated in interviews he doesnt like doing difficult routes because he doesnt think struggling and pushing oneself is fun, the whole free solo thing is just something he does cuz he can
@@jaystrother70 a portion of it is. But wrestling is not the same as learning submissions and all the unique ways to break appendages or lock up joints. They would need to combine that mat IQ with BJJ techniques and a mixture of striking. Unless they just went for tacksown points constantly lol
@@whitestguyuknow I mean it's pretty obvious anyone transitioning to MMA is going to start learning BJJ/Striking. But there's a history of wrestlers being very dominant in MMA.
um.. i think he just knows himself vverryy well, and, truly few people do. as in, not some construct/projection about how he would like to be or delusion of self image. but real deep understanding of all of one's 'ins and outs' (hence his talk about seeking within and wandering. quite literally probably just wandered around for awhile and 'soul searched' as he said)
Nick is one of the kind. Very talented and I believe (with out know him personally) he’s emotional indeed personal. With the right coaching he can be great 🥇 for the next 8yrs
Amazing young man .. There are some predators you have not experienced, and i have yet to hear you speak of monsters. Continue your journey you are on the right path.
Maniacally confident. Arrogant. Possibly self destructive. Wildly talented and hard working. Most athletes can work hard though. After all they are working for their own personal glory.
He has that thing you look for in an athlete. It comes once in a lifetime. That special talent that’s beyond talent. It’s that thing nobody else has. And guess what he knows it and he keeps driving.
Many fighters just give up. And for so many wrestlers I was thinking why don't you travel to become the best? And here we are Nick is as aggressive and quick as wrestlers from caucus mountains. Means he's one of the best now if he can get those guys.
I’m a basketball guy never got into wrestling until I came across bro I see pure mamba mentality kobe had that same type of ultra confidence you can’t fake it, the amount of work he put in I can’t imagine.
I wonder if we would ever see him in MMA? I know not all wrestlers transition into that field but he seems to have a great mindset and work ethic and I think he could be successful if he did 🤷♂️.
I love Suriano. Always believed in him since his first jersey title. He has an intense and focus that cannot be matched. Don't believe anyone can sustain the pressure.

@@whitestguyuknow I mean it's pretty obvious anyone transitioning to MMA is going to start learning BJJ/Striking. But there's a history of wrestlers being very dominant in MMA.
You guys crushed this!
i LOVE this kid. true inspiration.
I admire his drive. It's hard finding motivation but he seems passionate about wrestling.
This guy is a straight psychopath and I love it!
um.. i think he just knows himself vverryy well, and, truly few people do. as in, not some construct/projection about how he would like to be or delusion of self image. but real deep understanding of all of one's 'ins and outs' (hence his talk about seeking within and wandering. quite literally probably just wandered around for awhile and 'soul searched' as he said)
It makes a nice change to listen to somebody who is actually worth listening to.
There's only one Nick Suriano!
What a great documentary... Why there are thumbs down is beyond me... crazy, whether you like Suriano or not.
Nick is one of the kind. Very talented and I believe (with out know him personally) he’s emotional indeed personal.
With the right coaching he can be great 🥇 for the next 8yrs
Amazing young man .. There are some predators you have not experienced, and i have yet to hear you speak of monsters. Continue your journey you are on the right path.
Very very inspirational, light and blessings go out to Nick and his family
These flo docs or whatever you wanna call it are amazing telling story and letting the guys tell their own
I like him. Confidence in his abilities but also seems quite teachable and willing to learn.
This was epic! I don’t follow wrestling but had goosebumps!
Bro literally won his second title for Michigan. Watching those back is crazy and inspirational to watch
Maniacally confident. Arrogant. Possibly self destructive. Wildly talented and hard working.
Most athletes can work hard though. After all they are working for their own personal glory.
I love Nick Suriano. He’s one of my favorite wrestlers. I want to see him on the mat.
What a great video! Is it wrestling season yet!!??
I can tell you from experience, He is a really nice kid. I am wishing the best for him.
"It was dark and cold in Russia."
The filter certainly helps.
I love just love this kid this kid one of my favorite college wrestlers ever love this guy
He has that thing you look for in an athlete. It comes once in a lifetime. That special talent that’s beyond talent. It’s that thing nobody else has. And guess what he knows it and he keeps driving.
Except the 6 other people in his weight class, in the US, that have more of what ever that is.
@@joecampbell30 let me know who so I can look them up too. That’s good to know.
@@joecampbell30 love to see people compete at a level that’s almost unreal
@@nbo7207 Spencer Lee, daton fix, yianni diakamaholis.
This guy has the sharpest cheekbones I've ever seen in my entire life.
3:22 Ref pushes his arm like he’s pushed that Colon lost 😂 good!
This kid is deep. Keep up with this one. More documentaries please
A true testament to the equal power of the mind matching or even exceeding that of the body. This man is the highest definition of a warrior.
I love Suriano, but he probably wasn’t going to beat Gilman.
Many fighters just give up. And for so many wrestlers I was thinking why don't you travel to become the best? And here we are Nick is as aggressive and quick as wrestlers from caucus mountains. Means he's one of the best now if he can get those guys.
Buddy is less sweaty when he’s actually wrestling
I’m a basketball guy never got into wrestling until I came across bro I see pure mamba mentality kobe had that same type of ultra confidence you can’t fake it, the amount of work he put in I can’t imagine.
I wonder if we would ever see him in MMA? I know not all wrestlers transition into that field but he seems to have a great mindset and work ethic and I think he could be successful if he did 🤷♂️.
He’s got that mindset that’s different from others. I could see him doing well in MMA.
Gotta believe you’re the best in order to be the best. Champions know that.
Kid is wise beyond his years
Those eyes, that is the look of a champion. So much focus on an objective.
I love Suriano. Always believed in him since his first jersey title. He has an intense and focus that cannot be matched. Don't believe anyone can sustain the pressure.
If you truly loved him you'd spell his name right.
@@lawsonransom8318 good call out
@@Gymthingz 😆
You should let him blow your back out. That's how you show your love is real.
Sounds like a well balanced man who did not let his brain sell out... Kudos to the young man who has an impeccable hold on wisdom and humility ..!!
"Desire" the one thing a coach can't teach and this kid has IT!
