I do not believe Gable would beat this version of Zare. He's smaller and his offense is not dynamic enough. This pains me as a known hater of greco dancing bears. i am an idiot on the internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who was that poster on the old forum who self-pinned himself in the state finals and whose hero was the Iranian Abbas Jadidi? He was hilarious - wish he'd return. DF - he was hilarious in his prime!

And, I do think he is a superior athlete to Zare. Good point, but Gable would also have to be bought in on freestyle wrestling during this time. He appears to not have the fire for it currently.

This pains me as a known hater of greco dancing bears. I think we never even got to see the best Gable could be. The dude took down Geno three times in like 20 seconds… I’d say his offense is pretty dynamic. Imagine if he was training freestyle full time… I think he would have been dominant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, I do think he is a superior athlete to Zare. Alas Gable was HEW long before his olympic run so I unfortunately do not believe he would have continued developing at the necessary level. I believe he walked away at his peak. And yes I understand this will be an extremely unpopular opinion. 1 i am an idiot on the internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This pains me as a known hater of greco dancing bears. In short i agree with you. I would love to think a Gable loss here would motivate him to go absolutely all in with his training and make some adjustments, but ultimately I dont think he would be able to match Zare's toughness.

Pick your shots and set them up and learn on the edge wrestling at this level. Makes or breaks a match I may have to give cael a break after reading about the Paris Match. This been the problem with this guy for several years in college. I believe Bill zadick is not facing enough scrutiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denger Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 I think JB makes light of many unfortunate/troubling situations with a little chuckle. His comment on Lopez' opponent during their final on Tuesday was something like, "this guy made you leave your home...", with a little snicker in there. I don't interpret that he's delighting in it, just naming a tough thing and how hard that must be. He's a great voice to have there - I appreciate it, at least.

His offense was would class eltie. Its the most frustrating thing about Gable is we will never know how high ceiling was going to be. What if he committed to his nutrition and training?

Doublehalf Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 (edited) Japan has some kind of "it" factor going on... they (especially their top tier) just seem so calm and wrestle with a lot of precision and very few mistakes... They legit could end up with multiple golds in Greco/mens/womens... I know they've always been tough but it seems more now they deserve to be in the conversation with Iran/Russia as toughest opponents to draw. Also, they don't seem to gas anywhere near as much as all of their competition. Sure they're tired but I rarely see them trying to gulp the air like everyone else...
