Found these odds at the Greek
Gold Medal 86 KG Freestyle
Abdulrashid Sadulaev -185 (2 units)
Clearly the best wrestler in this weight. He should dominate through this Olympics and probably through the next as well. One of the most dominating wrestlers I've ever witnessed.
75 KG Women's Freestyle
Adeline Grey -125 (1 unit)
Her accomplishments speak for herself. 3 time world champion and IMO the best wrestler in this class. She dominated Qian last time around and is looking better than ever. She seems to just wrestle harder than any of her opponents, which is what makes her so great. I think Marzalyuk maybe her toughest test here, but Grey is just better IMO
59 KG Greco Roman
Jessie Thielke +6000 (.25 units)
Don't understand the huge odds here. He's wrestled internationally for quite a few years and shown he can compete in world competition. He left UW to focus on training for the Olympics. He's shown he can dominate as he did in the trials. Had a little trouble in second match in the finals, but pulled through. Do I think he's the gold medal favorite here? Obviously no. But I do think he can make a run and the price is too ridiculous to not put down at least a quarter of a unit.

Although Jordan Burroughs is arguably the best US wrestler in history outside of Dan Gable, I believe that at +350 (5 Dimes) Aniuar Geduev is worth a look. I think there is great value there
