Five months later, he's a World champion.

Ohhhh, Jordan Burroughs. For a second there I thought a reanimated junkie corpse terrorized a wrestling tournament.

Gonna have to make more room on the poster:

His arms are ridiculously huge. Like, Suh-huge.

The 2012 Olympic wrestling trials were this weekend and our very own Jordan Burroughs won........again. Can't wait to watch him take home the gold this year!!!!! #alliseeisgold

Awesome!!! Good luck Jordan.

 

[Comish]

Looks like he won when his opponent couldn't finish........(no problem with that, that's part of the deal)

But, did I also hear his consecutive win streak was snapped earlier.....?

 

[Comish]

Olympic Champion.......

Totally dominated.

Pretty impressive to call your shot at the gold and then back it up !

This performance SHOULD get him some big time notoriety.....(and attendant Husker p.r. as well)........

Congratulations !

Not sure if I've ever really watched Olympic wrestling before (maybe Rulon ... maybe) but he was awesome to watch. Congrats!
