This Saturday, Jordan Burroughs and David Taylor square off for the first time since 2014. The highly anticipated bout is headlining a fantastic eleven-match card hosted by FloWrestling, which also features a clash between World champions Adeline Gray and Tamyra Mensah-Stock.
Burroughs, a 2012 Olympic champion, four-time World champion and three-time World bronze medalist, and Taylor, a 2018 World champion and United World Wrestling’s “Best Freestyle Wrestler of the Year”, have manned different weight classes since 2016. Taylor, who initially began his Senior-level career at 74 kg, the same weight class as Burroughs, now wrestles at 86 kg.
Will Burroughs, the living legend, be able to bump up a weight class and take out one of the most dominant wrestlers in the world? Tune in on Saturday at 8:00 p.m. EST and find out. Until then, enjoy the previous four meetings between JB and DT below:
