Most of the coaches I have been around spend more time teaching takedowns & defending takedowns. If you can win the takedowns you will win the match 99% time. A wrestler can choose standing when its his choice. He can also give up 1pt & choose standing when its the other wrestlers choice. Cutting them & giving up 1pt is another option. Any time it goes out of bounds & a wrestler is in up position he can give up a point & choose standing also. That adds up to a lot of points if a wrestler better than the opponent at takedowns & defending takedowns.
