Neil deGrasse Tyson expresses his love for wrestling & the Beat the Streets Gala.

Jordan Burroughs and David Taylor are LIVE this week on Flo! They're not squaring off against each other though...unfortunately. Instead, they'll be taking on a pair of world-level Cubans in this Thursday's Beat The Streets Gala in Times Square. We'll follow up this week's Beat the Streets Gala with one the largest and most competitive dual tournament in the country: the 16th annual NHSCA National Duals. The event is headlined by returning champs, Young Guns (of Pennsylvania), and will be broadcast in its entirety from Friday-Monday.
