What's greater than Bo? Bo cubed(to the third)?

I would agree but I know he has brought in both otogoru brothers for months as well as vito at times. He also started traveling to train and working with the training lab guy. They seem to be giving him what he needs. I recall in a recent interview saying "I wish people could see me in practice I am a lot better in practice". I also wonder if he bought into everyone saying he was going to steam roll the field so the moment he hit adversity he was not able to recover.

Azarpira, who looked like crap in the 1/8s dominated his Indian opponent fast. So he looks pretty good.

Micic would not have been able to "make weight" in Serbia if he was wrestling for USA.

Spencer needs to see more diverse European styles guys as powerful as him. but I think there was a governor on him seeing too much physicality after the injuries. I think the predictions that he's a gold lock add detrimental pressure that increases when he sees adversity. He lost to a European champion not the end of the world

Amateur hour at UWW they forgot Kurbanovs two points

Snyder match goes final at 5 - 0

You jinxed it . . . 8 - 4 Taz now

The one French guy moved w/ his family to France when he was like 6 or something like that

The announcers were saying in Veliev match that he (or his family) is an immigrant, but he grew up in the Belgium wrestling system. I believe that was true for one of the French wrestlers with a "Russian" name

Snyder adds a step out; 5 - 0

Oh. Wow. Tahz gets a TD out the gate in the 2nd, though. 4-2 early in the 2nd.

Don't want to jinx anything but Mat B has a very interesting score at the break as well . . .

Not only does Poland not score but Snyder gets at TD too; 4 - 0 Snyder at the break

4-0 for the actual Cap over Poland at the break. That is like Valencia leading 8-0 after 45 seconds.

Poland put on the passivity clock

Yoshida up on the Georgian 3-2 right now midway through the first.

How big is Kyle Snyder actually? I know he is massive in terms of musculature. He is always the smaller (framed) wrestler. Could he trim down and go 92 KG or even 86 KG? Get somewhere his frame allows him to be average sized? This is obviously a joke. It's just hilarious to me that he is always thinner (at the shoulder) and shorter than anybody R16 and on at Worlds.

Quick step out for Snyder, 1 - 0

I've gotten loads about getting an oil change for the car

Snyder coming out to Mat C to face Poland; I'm out after this one

RBY is looking to bring home a medal in the same bracket that Lee didn't get the chance to wrestle for one at.

FWIW, the guy has only lost to Nick Lee from the USA. He's beaten Shnaulty, Lugo, Cornella, and a few others rather convincingly. He has also gotten destroyed by Sujeet a half dozen times this year, so that is hard to ignore.

Question: Would Sea-bass now, or Micic circa 2023 have gotten as good as they have if they had competed for the US? Both of them seem to have gotten more and more savvy with the dozens of high-level international matches they've gotten while they wrestle free and clear as their nation's #1. Is RBY headed that way too?

Yeah, I am not doubting you, I will look later and see what is going on. It would make sense to transfer for sure.
