On Thursday afternoon Professor Matthew Mitten, an arbitrator assigned by the American Arbitration Association, ruled that officials improperly allowed a challenge at the conclusion of the second bout of the Final X 65-kilogram match between Yianni Diakomihalis and Zain Retherford.
As a consequence, Professor Mitten ruled that the result of the second match was nullified, and that USA Wrestling will schedule a completion of the 65 kilograms match at a time to be determined soon.
Retherford will go into that match with a 1-0 lead in a best-of-three series.
