No Holds Barred: Gary Abbott of USA Wrestling Previews 2009 World Wrestling Championships 

On this edition of No Holds Barred, host Eddie Goldman speaks with Gary Abbott, the Director of Communications of USA Wrestling.

In this discussion, we preview the grand prize this year in the sport of wrestling, the 2009 World Wrestling Championships.

This event takes place Monday, September 21, through Sunday, September 27, in Herning, Denmark.

There will be virtually unprecedented coverage of the World Wrestling Championships this year.

Universal Sports in the U.S. will provide television coverage with one-hour primetime shows with highlights of the top matches at 7 PM ET nightly from Thursday, October 1, through Sunday, October 4.

Also, beginning at 1:30 PM ET Monday, September 21, there will be free, live online streaming video of all the medal-match finals in each weight class, at UniversalSports.com.

USA Wrestling will also have a special section on the World Championships on TheMat.com.

Our interview previewed this event by discussing many of the top wrestlers from around the world in the three styles which will be contested, men's and women's freestyle wrestling, and Greco-Roman wrestling. We also discussed the U.S. entries this year, which include many wrestlers making their first appearance at a World Championship.
