GSP wrestles for MMA, not for freestyle or greco. He never wrestled in his life until he started his MMA career, which hasn't been that young. Both Askren and Saitiev have been wrestling all their lives, they know moves that GSP wishes he knows.
GSP is incredibly athletic and explosive, but having just a double or a shot doesn't stop the funk that Saitiev and Askren have.

Machach Murtazaliev is the man. He had a bad day but is the best in the world at 74. He'll be back for 2012 hopefully.
BikaHUN posted August 1 at 7:22am.
Awesome match, the world's two greatest!Unfair that only one of them is going to Beijing. Saitiev is the greatest of all times! No such technique or skills occur anywhere else!!

HAHAHAHA you guys are all clowns
1.) GSP
2.) Saitiev
3.) Askren
Askren was a good college wrestler but in a freestyle match saitiev would dominate him to much experience to fast to technical Askren is gonna get out funked and as for GSP he is to powerfull for either If you watch brandon slays match with Saitiev brandon beat him cuz he was stronger and bullyed him around GSP would bully both Saitiev and Askren
oh and by the way cael sanderson is the best wrestler ever end of story
Gsp posted July 19 at 3:22pm.
i know for a fact that he cant beat askren or saitiev, im just saying if there was a way for him to beat them. it would be that way.. guess i wasnt clear

GSP,
I hope you're not suggesting that GSP, the mma fighter, could beat saitiev or askren
Gsp posted July 17 at 3:44pm.
gsp.. the thing about both askren and saytiev funky style is they both are almost helpless, to a good strong explosive double.. nd whose more explosive then GSP

Great match! Thanks flo! It is such a shame that we Americans can't see our matches. Askren is amazing, and it would have been great to see the Askren and Saitiev videos back to back. But USA Corporate interests stop the taping of most events nowadays. Gosh, if you think about it, America is becoming a capitalist wasteland, the "Corporate States of America." It's all just about money profit money profit money profit money....

Did Saitiev win that Jeep Cherokee in the background?
TJ X posted June 15 at 6:24pm.
How about the military soldiers standing there with machine guns, kind of scary.
for the people talking about the exposure, i think that since saitiev stayed up on his hands, they scored it as a hand to hand exposure=1 point.if he had dropped to an elbow it would have been 2

Setitnforgetit posted June 7 at 10:17pm.
Murta had 2 expsosure in the 2nd period and therefore the match should have been over at the conclusion of that period; score: 2-1. If you watch the video, the exposure is not debatable.

I think it's a shame that we can't see our Olympic qualifier, too. But it's also a shame the American's don't allow drinking or fighting in the stands...

Take a Good Look at the Tie-up by Saitiev..it is know as a "TURK Tie-Up" great sugar foot elbow under the shoulder,Great offence, but even a greater defence off this tie-up..Ever time Murtzaliev would reset over Saitiev elbow, the leg would open up for Saitiev,there are show many offensive and Defensive moves off this one Tie-up...and Stops "ALL" angels of attack...This Boy is Schooled..We fall for it all the time...
Twilly posted June 5 at 8:39am.
How old was Saitiev in the '96 Olympics. Couldn't have been much more than 20?
Great action, and a wild atmosphere. Well Done. It would great to see something similar to this covered in Iran.
DrWrestler posted June 5 at 12:00am.
On this match, there were Vladimi Putin, new President of Russia Dmitriy Medved, President of Chechnya - Ramzan Kadyrov. Saytiev will get hella of money from Kadyrov. Do you have match of Irbek Farniev????

This two guys are defently best in the 74KG today, and they dont feel anybody in the world, except themselfs! Im sure, both of them would be able to Win Olympic Gold 2008! Allahu Akbar!!! Chechnya&Dagestan...and rest of Kavkaz rules.!
The criteria for ties are: If there is a tie then the wrestler who had the higher point move will win. Notice in the first period Murtzaliev had a two point move to open the scoring, Saitiev followed with two one point moves. Murtzaliev wins because he had the higher points combo. In another situation if there is no advantage, say a 2 to 2 score each with two one-point moves then the wrestler that scores last wins.
Best wrestler in the world hands down. Slay should have been hit with about 50000 pivity calls in their match in Sydney. That was bull. Saitiev beat him. Who says skinny guys can't wrestle?
