Mesenbrink wrestled passed the whistle almost a dozen times. Not surprised at JB set him straight

If you think JB is the bad guy, you didn't watch the match.

Refs let it go all match. I'd be fed up too

Wow the bad blood between PSU and jb only increases

The Penn state crowd sucks. The iowa fan base cheered for legends even when they beat their club’s guys. This is the Olympics, not the NCAA’s. The fact that our greatest ambassador ever got boo’d all day is a testament to Penn State’s lack of tradition, understanding, wrestling knowledge and respect for the sport. This is not how you treat our nations great champions.

Mitch started it, JB finished it.

I’m from Wisconsin and love to see mesenbrink on the rise, but that was a terrible look for him. Not cool.

Dang heard about the match and it is confirmed Penn State guy was playing dirty the entire time. Glad JB got him in the end.

Mesenbrink is the PSU version of Desanto

JB gets more love from Iranians compared to PSU fans. At this point PSU needs a women’s team so they can boo more athletes

JB had this match handled all the way. The youngster needs to calm down. He hasn’t seen what the GOAT had seen…. Including all the world and Olympic medals. Great work JB.

Mitchell doing all that extra shit because jb damn near killed askren at beat the streets a few years back

Messenbrink was literally throwing punches and wrestling past the whistle the entire match…JB let him now that he wasn’t going to be distracted with all those extra antics.

Mesenbrink had that wild early Desanto energy. JB was so cool considering all the post whistle action MM dealt him. Classless PSU fans should be ashamed of themselves.

god bless you for posting these

Messenbrink is a spaz

Whoever booed was looking for a reason to hate. Anyone who’s wrestled knows mesenbrink had it coming to him

I'm also from Wisconsin. Terrible attitude and nonsense "bullying" he could have and should have been punched out by Burroughs. But he had too much class. And shame on that biased crowd for booing Burroughs.

You know Jb smashed his fingers right here lol at 3:53

Thanks for uploading these! You the 🐐

The ref should have been cited for not doing his job.

Y'all are soft. JB dominated 1st period and decided to stall. Mesenbrink couldn't do anything about it, so decided to fuck with him. The old bull gave the young bull a receipt for the effort. Nothing to see here.

I respect both wrestlers. They are both good people. I’ve met both wrestler’s. MITCH is a stand up guy I love that dude. JB is such a great person as well and a native to my home town

As a LOOONG TIME PSU fan, i’m extremely dissapointed in the Penn State fans, Wrestlers and some coaches in this tournament. Messenbrink wrestled far beyond the whistle in uncontinuation positions so many times and is not respecting who is probably the greatest American Wrestler of all time. No respect for the wrestler who has been carrying the torch for the sport for over a decade. Why not control the action and score takedowns instead of cheap shots after the whistle? I expected Cael to control things a little more as one of the greats but maybe his hands are tied since hes more involved with collegiate. They should not be letting Bo Nickal on as a coach IMO. Bo has maturing to do and is also in the center of these incidents. he wasnt close to the level wrestler JB was and maybe bitter since he pivoted to mma. The fan at the end walking over to JB after the final loss and screaming “now its over” was possibly the most classless act i’ve ever witnessed in sports fan history. That fan should be banned from attending any future wrestling events. I really hope someone took swift action on that. Penn State 100% lost a fan and respect in my book after this. I will be re-allocating my support for a different Team as its dissapointing.

Messebrank was OD. Kid was out of line. JB let him know rightfully so. Shit pisses me off I heard PS crowd talking shit to JB after the Nolf match. That disgusts me. I’m disappointed w the Penn State. SMGDFH 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️😡 Level of disrespect is unreal. What JB has done for this sport the levels he’s bright it up to all his work and championships. JB is THE GOAT!

God dammit - One more thing - After JB shoved Mesenbrink, the first thing the ref did was signal for a caution and 1 and then look to the table to see if it was confirmed. THAT IS PATHETIC. The first order of business is to GET IN THERE AND STOP THE FIGHT. You can figure out the points later. What an embarrassing performance from the ref. Just timid and weak. (IMO it’s the ref’s fault that things had to get to the point where JB had to do something about Mesenbrink’s antics.)

Nothing Wrong here !!! JB won the match Clearly !!! 🤔 Seemed like a Legit match ... Extra Push ... Who cares they are wrestlers lol 🤣👍

IDK if anybody posting the comments about how JB was justified have ever wrestled in a tournament situation. There are multiple mats and matches Going at the same time and sometimes it is difficult to tell when a whistle is yours or from another mat. The only thing I saw Mitch do that you do not see in virtually every high lever freestyle match was the head push in the first round. JB is and will always be a legend in USA wrestling, but at this point his ego far outpaces his wrestling skill, he really should consider letting the sun gracefully set on his career.

The entire match Mensenbrink was wrestling passed the whistle, pushing him back after the whistle for no reason, taunting JB and being completely unsportsmanlike. JB had so much patience the whole time but after the last head smash it seemed like he was seriously trying to be an asshole and had to be set straight

Damn Lil Dicky was scrappy

The disrespect for JB is despicable. Glad he lost, JB a class act as usual.

Messenbrink was literally being a punk the whole match lol. Wrestling past the whistle over a dozen times like you have something to prove when you’re getting goosed is crazy dude.

3:02 Mesenbrink fugged up.

Judging by the performances of Dake and Mesenbrink at these trials, the present and future of USMFS at 74kg looks great !

🙏

Anyone there wanna know what happened post whistle where they still chirped at each other

I love JB, I would have done the same push. The only problem is that, that moment/action of “anger” and “fight” mentality probably cost him the “mentality” it took to take out Jason the next round. Just like in Rio. I saw the JB vs Jason match before this and kept wondering why I kept seeing “booing Burroughs” and when he lost that match, right away I thought of the Rio match where he was pushed. I actually think there is a link there. No more fighting!!! Haha

Good for Burroughs.

Unpopular popular opinion: i don't really have a problem with this match.

About a min left in the first period Jordan was in on a shot that went out of bounds he got the step out point whistle blown Jordan stopped wrestling and was basically defenseless on his knees and Mitchell pushed him over while his feet were under his hips out of bounds could have caused a knee injury. That was not cool. The refs should not allow that to happen. It’s cheating. When the whistle has blown and your opponent has stopped according to the rules and you continue that’s a violation. Maybe once you let him get away with it but next time is a warning the next one is a pt.

You can tell the PSU crowd has no idea what they’re talking about. Messenbrink was wrestling past the whistle and almost throwing punches multiple times in the match, and then they want boo Burroughs because he “was disrespectful to our guy.” Idc what you think, if I had been shoved out, headbutted, and a guy refused to get off my leg when the action has stopped, I’d retaliate too. Burroughs knew he was winning, and he made it clear for Messenbrink to stop wrestling dirty, and then the second it happens with their guy they try throwing Burroughs under the bus like he sucks or he’s unsportsmanlike. Respect goes two ways, if you don’t respect him, he won’t respect you

7:58 is crazy. Absolutely zero reaction from the crowd even though it was a dick head move.

9:04

i honestly dont see why JB got so upset at mesenbrink. its his own fault he lost his balance lmao

M needs to get a hearing aid so he can hear the whistle and stop and learn sportsmanship. losing the entire match and suddenly you are upset that the other person can avoid you and ride out to a win??? well why is he in that position.. maybe because he beat you like a ragdoll have some class.

Some mind games like wrestling after the whistle and positioning in the center. Doesn’t work on veterans so well. I’m sure knowledgeable PSU fans saw that too. Wonder if they will wrestle again?

So Mesenbrick gets out of line the Penn state crowd cheers!! JB react to the kid’s terrible behavior and they’re booing, talking shit, and disrespecting the man who won our country “🇺🇸🥇7️⃣ major world titles”?! Other countries in the world don’t do this BS to their champions 😒 only in America… This is why other countries laugh at us…

That wasn’t booing it was ignorance of the ref not correcting Mitchell.

Carter isn't doing shit to Jordan. His teammate was out of pocket too many times and got checked for it. Puppies bark, dogs bite.

I think Mesenbrink and Metcalf have the same ear doctor

i like mitch wrestling style too many people nowadays want to wrestle the outside line but i thought he didn't give jb any of the respect who has clearly earned it being a gold medal winner, super disappointing, penn is usually great with showing grace but this match mitch was clearly in the wrong and the penn fans fans didnt show any love to jb either not cool, jb has been a great ambassador to the sport

Mesenbrink got up quick and then didn't want the smoke...

I like Messenbrink, but he wrestled this match like he was a high school kid. Burroughs schooled him, pulling out some of the tactics the Russians and Iranians use, slowing down the match. If Messenbrink wants to be successful, he has a lot of maturing to do. He can’t wrestle like that at the international level. The Russians, Eastern Europeans, and Iranians won’t put up with that nonsense.

Ref was too timid.

Weird seeing a national champion get sonned

Cael didn’t even budge after JB push smack 😂

Love it. Dude shouldve knocked that shit off earlier. Good on JB.

he expect ta be friends on the mat giving high fives an shi like hell naaa😂😂

Mesenbrink consistently tried to club JB on the back of the neck (which is legal) and the extra curriculars after the whistle. I didn't really understand the JB criticism for pulling up his socks. PSU definitely had a higher pace, but I was disappointed in Mesenbrink's conduct and especially PSU fans reaction to JB. I hope they don't have the trials at PSU again unless they enforce fan conduct more aggressively.

I get the impression Mesenbrink has studied Sidakov. He was overzealous with it though.

It always seems to be the case, young kid testing the boss with many cheap shots, he needed to look at the near tech fall instead of garbage shots after whistle. Very common, his parents needed to teach him to respect his elders. He should focus on technique, try to score! Not that.

Mesenbrink’s only job was to frustrate JB just so he could have him worked up for his matches to come later that day. Never thought I’d see the day that Penn State wrestling is more Corny than Iowa

Never liked wrestlers like Mesenbrink. Taking cheap shots throughout the match, and acts shocked when he's on the receiving end.

I don’t go prying on a guys ankles out of bounds like that. Could hurt a knee. MesserBRINK was being a prick under the guise of “I’m just wrestling hard”. JB was composed and the GOAT.

I love PennState and their wrestlers and couches!!! This crowd is not the best for the Olympic Trials. TOOOOO biased! LOL Let's find a better place for all the participants. The Olympics is National event. Let's find a better place. Sorry PA! Love your program for the college scene.

9:04 боюсь представить чтобы началось если бы у нас так кто-то сделал 🤣🤣...

Hard clubbing is ok agter pwriod one when messenbrink basically is trying to use any tactic to winm however wi 7 sendonds keft down that much u still clubbing and wrestling out of bounds that long drawing dead deserves a slap. He knew the crowd was on his side the kids no slouch. PENN STATE CROWD showd classless display toward one of the greats all tourney. Shows u what it means in the Quaker State

Love watching MM exciting wrestler. Love all of Penn state wrestling their far beyond all of the competition. Its to bad they're among the most obnoxious fans out there😂

Messenbrink went to arrowhead in high school so it explains a lot

Excellent pace by Mesenbrink. Quite the Prospect still. Burroughs the Vet here, had the experience and patience to control the Match. Also More effective with his Attacks. Great defense by Mesenbrink though. Outstanding performance by both Wrestlers.

JB did exactly what any man should of done he said the truth to kid stop punching my head with all those clubs messenbrink threw was uncalled for and made him look like a total scrub he looked desperate to setup any shot or strategy to win.

Wtf are you Pen State fans booing your guy was the dirty wrestler….

Mesenbrink wrestled past the whistle multiple times, attempting to frustrate Burroughs.....What's that saying mess with the bull get the horns

Admittedly I did not notice all the punk moves from Mitchell when I watched live but after rewatching it was flea he was begging for a slap. I was a big fan but this level of unnecessary disrespect went too far for me. Now I’ll be looking for Keegan to beat his ass. I know they may be boys but if he acts like that it may be too much for Keegan too.

If Mitch wants to fight so bad put him in an MMA match.

For all you FLY BY NIGHT fans, fans that have never wrestled, OR sat through decades of home matches of ur favorite team, your complaining falls on deaf ears. Each person on that mat has their own style and their own personality. They are trying to win. These guys for the most part are the best of the best, and some are very young. JB is almost twice Mitchell’s age, and clearly past his prime. JB hasn’t won anything at the Olympic level for 12 years. Has anyone here not accomplished something they set out to do in 12 years? Fans are allowed to boo/cheer/whistle WHATEVER. And that fan base is super knowledgeable and has their favorites. The whining on here from armchair qb’s is shocking. I personally attended almost every rec hall match since 1979, and this fan base for the most part is fantastic. BTW….In addition to all the wrestling accolades currently, the TEAM CUMULATIVE GPA is 3.85.

7:20 🤣🤣

I can’t speak for Mitchell but it just seems like he wanted to prove to JB that he’s a tough opponent and won’t accept defeat so easily to someone as high level like JB, hence why he was pushing the pace with the clubbing and such. JB unfortunately lost his cool with the hit. I respect JB as a legend of freestyle wrestling but I did lose some with what happened with Mitchell. It was pretty uncalled for and Mitchell was probably just getting lost in the match and couldn’t hear the whistle blow at 9:03, it happens to everyone. JB unfortunately is now gonna have to face the fact that he hit a college sophomore just because he was being a little rougher with him than his other opponents are usually.

Refs to blame. He at no point tried to control any of it and let it go on. NLWC / Penn State fans need to chill on the Burroughs hate. Everyone would attack an injury. That’s common sense. Messenbrink was far more aggressive post whistle than Burroughs and calling it accidental is ridiculous. They should be ashamed as a fan base for the disrespect they showed to a legend of the sport.

The pen kid over did it it was childish

MM ain’t mad so nobody else should be.

Blue no morals 😮

Burroughs was gassed, at least he retied his shoes & pulled up his socks 18 times during the match 😂

Psychological warfare

Messenbrink had better socks

Jordan looked gassed

Jordan was a great athlete but like anything you have to be like macdonalds and try innovative stuff he stayed with the same moves which does not work as good as when your 24 but he was a great champion regardless

MM is a 🤡 for half of this stuff. Burroughs has won 🥇. MM is a wannabe in this match

Mesenbrink spazzy kid acting just so. I wish JB the best. He's a hero and a role model.

Meswnbrink was too focused on trying to smash Jordan's face with his head and throw a little cheap shots here and there. Not only was it disrespectful but it was downright classless.. Jordan's reaction to all of this at the end with the head slap was a bit unnecessary but I can understand where it came from. Jordan was clearly agitated here throughout the match from a guy who knew he couldn't beat the champion..

That kid is freaking annoying JB was totally in right.

Nolf took took care of the work. No biggy.

Mesenbrink was way out of line here. Especially in front of such a prestigious wrestler like JB. The lack of respect is sickening. Im behind JB all the way.

JB saying he would target CS injured leg made him a target for psuw

UMMMM, JB is in the wrong here? WTF was that head snap to the mat 5 x after the whistle, many more incidents but God forbid he pulls his sock up.....is this crazy canadian day??

Y’all need to calm down. This is what y’all get mad at? I was expecting something crazy😂

Messenbrink’s whole schtick of ‘nobody can handle my pace’ and trying to ‘prove’ this by wrestling past the whistle is getting tiresome. Not only is it wrong, it has to be annoying for his opponent. He did this in the NCAA final with Carr and he did it here. Glad to see Burroughs retaliate at the end of the match. His antics are slowly turning me into a messenbrink hater.

I can’t believe some of you people commenting on how Mesenbrink wrestled. I saw a kid wrestling a guy he highly respects and he was honored to wrestle. He was wrestling his fanny off. Mesenbrink frustrated the heck out of JB and he showed a dark side of himself that put a bad taste in my mouth. Nolf went out and beat the heck out of him, thankfully because Dake would have embarrassed him in the best of 3. I’m a huge fan of Mesenbrink now!! The kid is a buzzsaw that will only get better. He has the best coach on the planet so he definitely will reach his full potential, especially if he stays healthy.

Jordan did not initiate that stuff the penn kid did

The ref must be terrified of the Burroughs PR machine to let him get away with that much stalling and fleeing to the boundary.
