Can someone confirm that this was the result in today's AGON match vs Quentin Wright?

According to Twitter that is correct. Someone posted it on the forum somewhere too.

And he called out Dake in the post-match interview for a match as well.

22-8 and it really was never in question. Wright got the first takedown. After that it was all Askren.

I heard that the Dake come back was awesome also

Dake basically said he's gonna go win where Askren couldn't (on the international scene).

Ben Askren talks junk like no other.

And backs it up.

Dake better change wt classes because as long as he stays at JBs wt ,he isnt winning anything!!!!

Zing! Although I think if Askren would have pursued it he would have medaled in The Olympics but he turned his focus to MMA. It was his first Olympics and he was figuring out how to compete on the International Level where The Funk doesn't always translate (IMO).

Dake will need to dethrone Burroughs if he's gonna back up his comeback (or move to a different weight).

Who knows what the Olympic weights will be? Maybe Dake can make the cut to whatever weight is close to Burroughs. Having 7 weights or whatever it is really stinks.
