I've been wanting to comment on the 135 lb. match. I also saw it in the same eye as the Ullyses kid. Peterson had spun around behind Elliott while his hands were still touching the match (takedown-3 supporting points) and then Elliott reversed Peterson as Peterson's hands were also touching the ground (reversal-three supporting points). The score should have been 3-3 or the ref should have awarded no points as no one wrestler had secured the takedown on the mat long enough to maintain complete control. I feel this match should have went into overtime, but that's just me.
Trust me it is not just you. I was wondering how Elliott was awarded the takedown when Peterson had the same basic positioning on Elliott and didn't get awarded. I think it was just a missed call.
