The Bleacher Report just announced their “Top 10 Unbeatable Star Letdowns Ever” and the #3 letdown was “Alexander Karelin Loses His Greatness.”
Jon Star writes, “Karelin, Russia’s greatest Greco-Roman wrestler, was not just on a decade-long winning streak….In fact, he cruised to the gold medal match [in the Sydney Olympic Games] without giving up a point in a decade and had not lost in 15 years. He won three gold medals and seven straight world titles. That was until he faced the enormous underdog in American Rulon Gardner. Gardner slayed the Russian giant…”
Congratulations, Rulon!
