One leg? That’s not fair. What if his opponent has only learned to go for a two legged take down?

That was my thought, too. There are quite a few wrestling moves in addition to take downs that require a leg target. I won’t deny him his great achievement, though.

My statement in no way contradicts that fact. Calm down.
