Taylor to Yazdani: I know losing is frustrating
On the second day of the freestyle wrestling competitions at the Serbia Wrestling Championships, Hassan Yazdani was defeated by David Taylor from the USA in the 86 kg final and took silver. Their match was one of the most exciting wrestling matches of this event.
Yazdani and David Taylor from the USA had faced each other four times before, with Taylor defeating Yazdani three times: at the Kermanshah World Cup, the 2018 World Championships in Budapest, and the Tokyo Olympic final. However, last year at the Oslo World Championships final, Hassan Yazdani managed to defeat Taylor. After the match, when asked what message he had for Yazdani, Taylor said, ‘Hello friend, I know losing is frustrating, but next year you’ll be there, and I’ll be there too, and we’ll compete.’
