    Kevin Jackson Olympic Gold

    Probably most people here have seen this, or remember the original, but here is the video of Kevin Jackson's Olympic gold victory. Talk about determination and constant effort and pressure!!

    Man, Jackson was so fast getting in on the legs. Almost needed no setup. Just a way better athlete than his opponent.

    Re: Kevin Jackson Olympic Gold

    So I take it in freestyle there are no points awarded for an escape. It seems like whenever I watch freestyle, the guy in the bottom position just lays as flat as possible, then after a while the ref blows the whistle and they start neutral again.

    Correct, It's takedowns, tilts and push outs. I think there is a point for reversals, but they seldom put their back to risk.
