Hate to say it, but, if you can't get away on the bottom, it's pretty tough to win.

Exactly right turk! Oh well, it was a great match. I have faith that Tyler will avenge this  loss!

I can't stand Ramos, his do nothing and win ugly style makes me want to stick a fork in my eye. His stare down makes you think he is about to attack you... but then he just gets ready to block anything coming his way.

Personally I thought TG had an escape before riding time and I think he thought he had it a well. At the end of the day he was on his feet for 5 minutes the first 2 periods and didn't take hardly any shots. He should have opened up, nothing to lose this week.
I am not in danger, I AM the danger!

... and the excessive celebration wasn't appreciated either (by me anyway) - (but, then again, neither was Taylor's after his 3rd place win over Clark)

(Rocky) ....... "I don't see any."

After Taylor got dominated and stuck by Clark not long ago I think he deserved a little celebration for his performance and I'm sure the crowd loved it.  It wish I were there to see it!

I re-watched this match.  Most of the on the feet seemed to be straight on hand fighting and head ties.  

Work on the setups Tyler !!!  Force the Action and Move Him !!

Ramos did a great job of blocking with his straight arm on the neck. Tyler will learn from this.

My guess is that Graff won't face Ramos again.  Looks like the seeds will be Colon, Schopp, Ramos, Morrison, Graff.  Even if Graff and Morrison are flip-flopped, Graff will face Morrison, then Colon, and then Schopp.  I don't think Ramos will get by Schopp  ;)

And I think Graff will learn from his Midlands match against Colon.  Graff was dominating him on their feet but lost the match on the mat.

I think the 4 or 5 seed would work out fine for Tyler !!
