Cox wins wrestling world championship

Are we sure J’den Cox puts on his singlet one leg at a time?

The Mizzou and Hickman High School alum won the World Championship at 92 kilograms while wrestling for the United States in Budapest on Monday. He beat Ivan Yankouski of Belarus, 4-1, in the finals.

The former national champ for the Tigers has also earned bronze medals in last year’s senior worlds, and the 2016 Olympics.
