Its almost time. Jordan Burroughs is excited to return to the mat when he takes on NCAA champion Zahid Valencia in an exhibition match. It has been almost eight months since he last comepted at Pan American Olympic Qualifiers. He won gold medal at the Canada-held event. In an Instagram post, the US Olympic gold medallist shared a promo of his upcoming bout and wrote: “It’s almost time! November 14”.
He will be squaring off against Junior World silver medallist and two-time NCAA champion at a catchweight of 185lbs (83kg) on November 14. The exhibition match will be organised by FloWrestling.
Burroughs has already booked the Tokyo Olympics berth in 74kg and the exhibition match will be a good testing ground for him.
