Honestly my favorite part of this interview is the amount of respect he gives his wife and kids
spends more time talking about them than the tournament

[@clintmcallister1647]

Dake is the fucking man. Congrats 🥉

[@durrr123]

I know he'll be 37 in 2028 but man I feel like I want him to win gold as much as he does

[@desmundlighten3603]

It’s over bro.

[@keion_arknights]

It's not unheard of, though much harder in his weightclass.

[@thomasmyers3808]

I hope so, but father time is catching up. I’m sad for the US. I was really pulling for Aaron Brooks

[@MBoyer-ng6ok]

Finished like a champ with big high amplitude move (suplay) and a turn! International community (after his 4x world champion success) was studying/training for him at Paris and his techniques, but he still came through big with the bronze. Up there with all time greats in the sport...Great way to come back from a tough loss in the semis and in life) and never quit when down at the end...

[@John-b4w]

He’s courage. So many cowards out there it’s great to see honor.

[@keithbram7010]

Kyle is an extraordinary athlete and blessed with uncommon grace and courage. Could not wish for a better ambassador for USA wrestling. A genuine inspiration for …

[@longship44]

What an awesome athlete and class act. I'm a huge fan and look forward to seeing Kyle wrestle again. I pray for his continued healing from the loss of his father. I lost mine not long ago and I know its super hard. Stay well and stay hungry my friend!

[@mrt445]

I wish Dake and Burroughs were friends and actually trained together to get Fake the gold.

[@John-b4w]

Class individual

[@UAPReportingCenter]

Congrats!! What a match!

[@DocDanTheGuitarMan]

Fantastic human being here.

[@stbny4444]

As a person who also just lost their father like come on guys. Why ask him that on camera? Ask about wrestling. Leave the guys dad out of it.

[@tairapeace]

Dake my favorite wrassler 🤘🏽

[@danatkeson4619]

Hold your head High Dake! I love the way you handle adversity and disappointment. Life is so much more than wrestling but wrestling is life right? Enjoy and take in the Silver you shine brightly for the stars and strips. You represent your family well. I give you the Gold for your husband and father position in life. Look forward from hearing more from you in life. Lord Bless!!

[@JS45678]

In my book, Kyle Dake is still a Champion. 😏

[@jameshouchins9469]

Absolutely

[@azteacher26]

leg laces points are bullshit. You shouldn't be able to get so many points. Maybe one point per turn should be the rule.

[@JS45678]

Great comment! 👏👏👏
I have felt this way since I competed in the 1970s & 80s. Once caught in a lace, the match is over. I’ve seen many World Champions caught in laces and finished off in seconds. Worst rule.

[@wesleymorris5671]

How do I say goodbye-Dean Lewis

[@nabil5249]

I don’t wish him harm but I don’t feel sorry for him. He got humbled. Longtime coming. It’s over now.

[@notmyname1038]

Humbled from what? When has he ever been arrogant? Serious question

[@clifforddang5947]

How good are you if you beat Kyle Dake?

[@JS45678]

I’d say if you beat Kyle Dake, you are pretty decent. 🙃

[@andrewcarranza1562]

Hopefully he gets one more chance next time.

[@fitness4234]

no way he beats Aaron brooks, but who knows, the weight cut definitely affected his performance

[@jameshouchins9469]

I agree...but Dake used to whip the pants off Taylor!

[@Official-OpenAI]

Maybe show a little more respect towards your opponent. Having a tantrum ain't gonna solve anything.

[@paleo704]

He was right

[@paulkreider9441]

Watched Dake wrestle for decades. His skills have come at a high cost. He like the others high level wrestlers from the United States have sacrificed much. They are blessed because of the finance backing and the elite coaching arenas they work from. They unlike other common folk are blessed to pursue their dreams. However, Kyle Dake embarrassed a lot of American citizens because of his whiny temper tantrum he threw on the mat on an international stage. Unlike Aaron Brooks who handle himself like a mature man when faced with not winning a gold. Aaron Brooks winning the bronze showed the true character of a true champion. Dake showed himself to be just a WINNER of the bronze. Brooks is the CHAMPION of the bronze. Brooks acted like a man. Dake acted like a child.

[@jaymarotta6218]

Bronze is crap he quit early and looked out of shape. If Russia was there he would be nothing

[@tonyk8369]

Want are you less than nothing? Troll

[@RandyLex-wu6jy]

Cool dude
