    I was looking to see if he would shake his hand too though he never did. But interestingly, Burroughs shook the hands of the two Iranian coaches on the side.

    Since then, it's been wailing a tender agony of parting, never mentioning the skill that gave it life as a flute." -- Rumi

    Good thoughts, good words, good deeds.

    "Iranians are poets and tend to use language as though it were paint, to be spread out, blended, swirled. Words can be presented as pieces in a puzzle, pieces that may or may not fit together neatly." - New York Times

      Nah too busy celebrating. Watch on reply. Totally ignored Goudrazi. I gotta admit though - he is damn good! Sad to see him such an a$$ though

        Close final. Goudarzi was the one taking iniative all the time, but the american was a solid wreslter.

        Goudarzi could've definatley beaten this guy.

        Congrats for the silver medal.

          Burroughs was the better wrestler, congrats to him eventho he is rude for not shaking Sadegh's hand, silver is still good no shame in silver.

            Goudarzi was not favored in this match. Yazdani and Taghavi are our best chances. Again that is also on wikipedia.
            I don't get my information from Wikipedia (well I do go back sometimes to check on a few things), I actually follow Wrestling and in particular Iranian wrestlers..

                So thats 5 Silvers? Ouch!

                Does anyone know how many more chances for a Gold we have left remaining? Real chances?
                Taghavi, Yazdani are current world champs
                Lashgar, Esmaeilpour, Komeili have also serious chances...

                  The US guy is just great man. He will rule this weight for years to come. Congratulation to him for the gold and also for the silver for Goudarzi. Goudarzi did his best and I am glad he got the silver. This was a clean fight with clear winner. And we got our 10th medal and we are breaking the record good.
