Matchups like the one you guys are talking about are the reason I make it a priority to attend the Cleveland Duals every year. It’s a fun event for wrestling fans. I had the chance to watch that match live. If I remember correctly, Palmer had took Whitworth down a couple times in the first 2 periods to get his points. Whitworth was down 4-1 with less than a minute to go when he tilted Palmer twice. It kind of looked like Palmer thought he had it won and was stalling it out on bottom / gassed. It was a great comeback win for Whitworth. After the match, I personally felt like the result would be reversed in a rematch as Palmer controlled the majority of that match. The point of all that was to say that I wouldn’t say Whitworth automatically beats Horst just because of that match. We have no idea how close the wrestle off was either. I was torn and ended up voting for Whitworth, but I agree with Bump that if all 3 wrestled multiple times, they all probably come out with wins and losses over each other.
