I think you’re right. + Will be a star as well! His IG alone went up over 60k followers from his last fight on the contender series 😮

I like your thinking

He will never beat whitikar

Nope

@@andrewb5412 never say never

I agree. This is one of my favorites. This was the first match I talked to Bo nickal about when I met him at ncaas 2 years ago.

fax

Chain wrestling fr

Bo lost and he knows it.

​@@WiegandsWindow keep saying it champ, maybe one day itll be true

@@WiegandsWindow LMAO you are replying to all of the comments with this type of thing lol. It was a close match, but it is over

@@spencerantoniomarlen-starr3069 "LMAO" hope your OK.

Both his parents were quite high-level athletes in their own rights. D-1 level, and one of them might even have been an Olympian if I'm not mistaken. Like Sebastian Korda in tennis, Bo Nickal has natural genetic athleticism. Look at the muscle difference between the much older Gabe Dean and Bo, yet Bo was able to ride Gabe and hold his own in tie-ups etc. Dude is going to be UFC MW champion. Can't wait. He would beat Izzy or Alex tonight.

Thanks for watching! We'll be looking into your request.

@@NCAAChampionships YESS

@@NCAAChampionships please get that one and Ed Ruth’s senior year 184 against the guy from Maryland PLEASE

@@demetriusdavis95 oh you mean Jimmy Sheptock?

@@xenonmaster6668 yup, didn’t get a chance to watch that’s year championship and been looking for the videos every since

Dean won and dominated.

​@@WiegandsWindow how?

Dean did at 8:18 what Bo never got close to doing.

Happy you found it!

Thanks for the request. We're looking into it.

He should have scored.

@@WiegandsWindow but he didn’t

He did but it was taken from him.

Dean earned the score at 8:18.

You're very welcome! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you!

@@NCAAChampionships Very Good Fighting !!!!!!!!! 🤙👌💪 👏👏👏👏👏

Not enough depth.

@@TheWrestlingThing70+ yrs ago😂

Thanks for the request, David. Unfortunately, the file we have of Nickal vs Martin 2018 has some issues. Hopefully we'll have it repaired in the future.

@@NCAAChampionships We'll be looking for it. Why aren't all of these big matches posted directly after the tournaments? Thanks 👍

😂 have you ever considered a career in comedy?

I see after reading the comment string that neutral exposure wasn't added to the rules until later.

@@jessiedoggie1 Dean dominated. He wasn't given 4 pts in the third period, and Bo received 2 extra from the refs in the first round. Gabe was clearly robbed

Bo didn't win. The Refs gave it to him.

I thought the same thing but he was way too conservative and I think the end of the match came around sooner than he thought it was going to. His nerves may have just gotten the better of him in this particular match but u gotta give Bo the credit he deserved - he did what he had to do to get his hand raised at the end.

@@Timtrom333 Bottom line the wrong guy won

sounds like you’re salty bruh

✝️ 🇺🇸💪🏻🙏🏻

The best wrestler today does

Dean outshone Bo.

You meant 2:42 ish bro?

Funny watching this match live and then watching it quite a few years later. Bo definitely was stalling that takedown was garbage and I felt like Gabe pushed the pace I love me some bo but that was very suspect 🤔

My thoughts exactly. Why Koll didn't challenge the neutral exposure is beyond me.

Thanks for the request. We will be looking into it.

And Bo Nance from Syracuse was a heavyweight wrestling champion and great football back in the 60s.

He had control of both legs and was on top

@@julianchambliess-moreno4883 yeah but it looked more like a scramble than a takedown

@@Michael-ii9fs I’m not assuming, and I’m not saying I’m an official in terms of scoring, but there have been things that have been much clearer than this and sometimes they don’t call a takedown. I’m not trying to assume, it’s just it doesn’t look like 2 to me

I don’t think it’s a controversial takedown; I think Nickal knew the rules and took advantage of them. He had control of the hips (by way of the leg and ankle) and Dean was on his butt. Even though it didn’t look like control, he certainly had it

@@ianshue2890 ... yeah - like Jordan Oliver's last minute take down of "what's his name," from Ohio State... Oliver absolutely got two and Bo's take down wasn't even as good as that...

Gabe easily won but the refs handed it to Bo.

your are probably right lol, ran out

because they were scrambling, no control bruh

Not beyond reaction time

Didnt establish control until out of bounds

Secret about nearfall is that you need to gain control for near fall. No control had been established he never had control beyond reaction time.

@@Fullsendfilosophy if he had control he would of been awarded a takedown thats how takedowns work. Dean had two before Bo flees the mat!

@@poundinghogs8354 The official didn't indicate 2 and Rob koll had a challenge but didn't use it. So obviously he didn't believe there was control beyond reaction time either

@@Fullsendfilosophy if you look at it when Dean wizzers Bo to his back Dean has hes far arm trapped thats 2 plus near fall

@@poundinghogs8354 You don't understand reaction time its okay. 3x ncaa Champs rob koll understands it and thats why he didn't challenge it. If you're right why didn't Rob kill challenge?

100% 2 and maybe some backs

@@jagerbombs8452 no control

How was it Called a takedown at all?

Thanks for the request. We will be looking into it.

That was jui jitsu juice head gordan wouldn't stand a chance in wrestling

@@Cheesusrice69222 Thank you for saying that so I didn't have to!! 🤣🤣🤣

Gordon isn’t half the athlete Bo nickal is and he’s juiced up

@@shellshock8505 interesting opinion. Doesn’t change anything I wrote. I’m sure if Gordon was in a match with Bo using collegiate wrestling The outcome would be different. The two forms of grappling overlap but there’s a clear difference. And no matter what you think of those abilities. He’s nothing compared to Gordon Ryan when it comes to Jujitsu.

@@labzline your original comment is about wrestling and your last one is BJJ. Don’t change your stance just to seem right

It’s about getting takedowns and exposing your opponents back also get points for escaping from bottom

this is before ncaa added exposure prior to an awarded takedown. It may have been a different score if this had been after 2019 (maybe 2018, I don't remember exactly)

@@taborwanag1271 Yeah cause he definitely had him torqued over and should have got back points

@@watchmanwilliam8396 I agree, sorta reminds you how much sports are always evolving and changing and ultimately made up and arbitrary

@@taborwanag1271 it was 2018

Dean dominated. He wasn't given 4 pts in the third period, and Bo received 2 extra from the refs in the first round. Gabe was clearly robbed.

WWE is the fake wrestling

Need to establish control beyond reaction time

He was on his back for 2 seconds.. not long enough and not enough control for points

@@Fullsendfilosophy Whwre was the control for his takedown that was scored?

caulifloweer ear is desired by a lot of wrestlers, its almost never worn during practice

I would cut them off

🧢

Nickal broke parallel for 2 seconds and Dean didnt have control... not 2

@@terranpaul4477 Can't turn somebody like dean did unless you have control. Dean dominated. He wasn't given 4 pts in the third period, and Bo received 2 extra from the refs in the first round. Gabe was clearly robbed

He's not Texan. He's from Wyoming, or actually Colorado before that

@@stylicho he actually wrestled his 8th grade year in Rio Rancho, NM for RR NM and placed runnerup at the state tournament. I wrestled in the same arena Bo Nickal wrestled in 10-11 years ago as a 8th grader this past may as a hs senior
