USA struggles at 65kg.. are we alone?
GrandOlm replied to BruceyB's topic in International Wrestling
The only nations or regions that can churn out elite wrestlers across the weight spectrum (light, middle heavy) are the US, Mazandaran, and Dagestan/Ossetia. So everyone else has a problem, somewhere (or everywhere). I think Arsan Fadzaev was an example of a dominant wrestler from this weight range historically. It's probably still true that average man in high level wrestling regions, when in shape, is somewhere around 70ish kg. This lends itself to 65 kg for competition purposes. -
Being indigenous just means you have a family lineage that can be documented and enough of your parentage is indigenous or native or whatever. A coach I know one of his parents is half native of some tribe, so because of that he's an enrolled tribal member who gets certain benefits. As far as I know he's never lived on a reservation or really done anything with the tribal community besides become an enrolled member. So I assume that Wesley is in a similar boat, he has some familial connections and claims that. Then again the hall of fame does say "self identity" so maybe they've never asked him to prove it or the records that prove it got lost or the building they were in burned down.

Which founding father was the P4P best wrestler?
-
Would need a big financial backing to make it happen as it’s likely a loss financially. Most kids gravitate to the ball sports, let’s at least try to direct them to the best sport
-
But isn’t “by descent” also how he’s claiming to be an indigenous person? I guess it could be one from his mom and one from his dad…
-
I don't think he's claiming to be from Cabo Verde, not Cape Verde. He got citizenship by descent. Just like how Myles Amine isn't from San Marino, or Gennady Tulbea isn't from Monaco.

Yeah, the 'why doesn't Warren Buffett just pay more if he wants to,' is...yet another intellectually dishonest argument. The people talking about how much they care about the future of this Country are just...so clearly frauds. At what point do we care about the debt? When it's 2X the GDP(which contracted last quarter, Trump's first)? 3X? It used to be the debt shouldn't exceed 25%, then 50%, then 75%...now the total debt of the United States and it's people is 700% of the GDP. That's all debt held by the United States. I think our debt to GDP ratio...well, before the last GDP reading was in the 140% range while China was in the 80s. Big difference; China is at least building...MASSIVE infrastructure projects. We're just...giving it back to the uber wealthy. And I'm at the point where...I'm starting to not care. Cutting the corporate tax rate is going to really help the market and I've got enough in the market that I'll be fine, my kids will be fine and...I guess I'll stop worring about the rest. I will note, I did give a couple stock tips. QBTS, AVGO and...the obvious, NVDA. That was following Trump's moronic tax. QBTS is up to ~17 a share from 6 a share(and .76 cents a share just a year ago). AVGO up from ~145 to ~230 and NVDA from 87 back to 135...though most people FOMO'd into that one already. -

His undertook will not be effective internationally. Technically savvy wrestlers will shut him down.

Then there’s this: China’s hidden tech in solar gear raises fears of spying on the US power grid These undisclosed tools could allow remote shutdowns of solar inverters, posing a risk of power outages. https://interestingengineering.com/culture/us-solar-grid-at-risk-china

Dont you hate when your anger made you reply to someone that wasn’t the right person and you look completely stupid?

Those are both guys who win on close gritty matches. Those types of matches don’t exist with Ono

I see you have predicted him losing. I obviously have the reverse, quite confident in a sweep, so don’t be surprised when Hidlay comes home with some hardware

It's...so clear you don't know what you're talking about and you didn't actually watch the video. She WAS arrested, that's covered seconds into that video... You didn't...someone ELSE did and even then, you got literally every fact you cited here wrong other than she did have her hands behind her back as she was walking for a few steps. 1-3 years ago. So "it's recent" is...not accurate. 2-Again, seconds into the video they even reiterate she was arrested, so...you couldn't be bothered to watch this video(or just have a basic understanding of the topic you brought up.

I was wondering, so he’s claiming to be both a “North American Indigenous” person, and from Cape Verde? I’m no geography or history expert, are there many North American Indigenous people in Cape Verde, off the coast of Africa?

Ok...well...then you seem to agree with the House oversight committee. Again though, can I see your posts about all of the people who worked in the Trump administration or for the Trump Campaign who were being paid by foreign Governments and lying about it? I mean, I can't even FATHOM how outraged you are about the...well, the list I just gave you that you apparently ignored.

Another video from Kyler after winning the U20 US Open. He was repping Atreus RTC. Don’t think there was really mention of Kaleb.

Why don' Republicans have the balls to save our Country like they did under the likes of Eisenhower? Back when we were trying to repay the debt we'd built up after WWII and the Great Depression? Of course you can go back and look at who is responsible for adding to the debt and you find out VERY quickly the Republicans don't actually care.
