Isaiah Martinez jumped levels in the last year as was evident by 2019 Final X performance.
Taking on Jordan Burroughs, a four-time World champion and 2016 Olympic champion, Martinez forced the series to three matches, winning the second bout over Burroughs. A brutal three-match series, Martinez fell just short of knocking off one of the greatest American wrestlers to make his first World Team.
Just weeks later, Martinez opens up about Final X, his last year of training and what his plans are in preparation for the 2020 Olympic Team Trials.
