The most anticipated Pan American Championships wrestling match is now underway, captivating fans worldwide. The match under 57 kg just took place, and the amazing face-off was a treat for the fans. Keeping the audience on the edge of their seats, Spencer Lee again proved himself as the standout. He scored 12-2 against the face-off with Pedro Mejias Rodriguez.

The event is taking place in Acapulco, Mexico, where several wrestlers are participating, among whom Team USA wrestlers are making their way into the tournament. The Mexican wrestler went against him today, and the news of their titbits is now swirling down the internet. The wrestling enthusiasts were waiting to see Lee’s incredible fight and how he secured another gold under his belt.

Spencer Lee carved his way to triumph

The news came on the official Twitter page of USA Wrestling with the caption, “MFS 57 kg Finals: Spencer Lee Tech. Fall Pedro Mejias Rodriguez, 12-2 #WrestleAcapulca.”

Lee faced a loss against Carlos Munoz in the very first match of the tournament, but he made sure to return with more power in this one. This is why he maintained an indomitable competitive spirit, which made him clinch an international gold medal at the tech with a scoreboard of 12-2.

Lee made his way back to international competition after 8 years and left the jaws of all his fans open. Despite having a fierce day of competition at the men’s freestyle, the USA teams are painting their dominance on the field. Lee added the cherry on top, as he is the first American to secure a victory without conceding any points.

The three-time NCAA champion secured his status as one of the greatest players of all time. Recently, he bagged a victory at the Senior National Freestyle title, where he opened up about his motivations and aspirations in the interview that took place later. He shared, “I went to just compete; you know, I like competing.” With that, he added, “I am an international guy now, I am no longer a college guy. I don’t have every single week of competition like in college you have. So, like, when there’s an opportunity to compete, it just makes sense.”

Commanding an incredible performance everywhere

Not only that but fans were also very eager to see a match between the Iowa Hawkeyes’ star wrestler and Nick Suriano. Recently, Suriano claimed a gold medal in the 61kg category so they will be wrestling against each other in the 57kg weight category. Their rivalry has crossed paths many times before, but the arch started in 2012’s Super 32 Finals.

However, the question that lingers everywhere is: Will Lee and Suriano ever get the chance to compete against each other?
