Some people only peruse one or two BBS... give them a break. It isn't their fault.

Urijah Faber would like a word.

Watch it, now! He isn't overrated at all an will place Top 4!

I was aware of that post, to be clear. I don't only peruse this BBS. I do thank you for posting for others to see, though. Also, I did edit my initial post. Just a tidbit of 'neat' information.

I would have assumed this was the route for Arnold, regardless of if Brands were to have come back or not. Arnold has Senior MFS aspirations and the Olympic weight is 86 KG (~189.6lbs), which much better alligns itself to 184lbs than it does 174lbs. I also thought for sure PK would be inserting himself in to this conversation - and he may very well still. This now tells me that Mini-Focus is either going to... focus... on heading up to 197lbs, or keep it slim and stay near 174lbs for next season. EDIT: Of note, PK, Brands, and Arnold all weighed in over 174lbs and under 184lbs for their Alpha Certification, whereas Focus weighed in over 184lbs and under 197lbs. It is a Redshirt year, so there might not be anything there. Interesting that his oldest brother's biggest competition is his training partner, though.

I wish you'd had posted the tweet of it. Is had seen it when it happened, but it was pretty awesome to see. JB is loved and respected by the Irani. All of them.

You're welcome.

2/3 to go higher wouldn't be a good take even if they were expected to improve as wrestlers. I think Buchanan and Parco could, but I don't think Teemer wins it. Even if odds for Buchanan and Parco were 50/50 to both improve, I am not sure I would take 1/3 still - gun to head. There are quite a few guys at all three of their weights that can (and have) beaten them and have youth on their side.

Needs to be his landscape background due to the requirement of it be in landscape mode.

Had one not died in the Detroit riots of '67 I imagine statistics would show they likely would have gotten a dovorce.

Deflect. Nice try. You're still an idiot who don't read good.

Try reading the thread, dipshit. The part you quoted right before you decided you didn't know how to read. God, you're seriously dense.

Mendez destroys Stanich Walker wins in the finals Welsh beats Bullock 7-2 in a match that he looked the bigger wrestler in. Shumate had to come from behind to beat Walters at 197lbs for 3rd. Mantanona had Brignola on skates the last minute of the finals match at 165lbs there. True Frosh Brock, not Beau. Davino beats Bouzakis 5-3 and McCrone beats Kilkeary 5-3.

You edited and added this, so I will respond to this: Don't act like an idiot and I won't call you one. That or toughen up and don't let it hurt your feelings so much.

Are you seriously that stupid? You even quoted a post that has other examples. If you expect me to list off what episodes of which podcasts at what minutemark simply because you are too lazy to listen for yourself or you don't shell out the coinage to read the articles, then you have lost your marbles. A poll on here of people are aren't typically complete idiots (lest yourself), would do nothing but reaffirm that we aren't idiots.

Stanich over Lemley via 2-2 in UTB. Had 16 seconds compared to 4 of RT. Lemley looked bigger, but size did not appear to be an issue at all. Nor strength, as Stanich controlled center nearly the entire match. Let us see if he can give Mendez a match now.

I gave examples. You are choosing to be a complete moron, which is what we all should expect as par for the course with you. I am sorry I expected you to be able to read.

One example of what? I gave you examples already. Quit being a fckn idiot simply because you are a fckn idiot.

Flo, WIN, Rokfin, Intermat, most folks on twatter who fancy themselves somebody. Also, the first point is entirely valid. Just because you say it isn't doesn't mean it isn't. You are categorically wrong.

This tells me they are at least considering Kharchla at 174 then, yeah?

It is a good gauge for both him and Munoz and establishes some form of pecking order early. Last year the two 184lbers who came up ran roughshed - with ease - on all of 197lbs. Buchanan established that Munoz will not do the same.

Having one good tournament and a 60% win percentage with many losses to non-AA then taking a year off can and does - as seen by his squeeker of a 2-1 gift...err... win last night. Also you must not follow much, at all. Almost every media outlet is picking him to high AA regardless of 174 or 184. Predictions =/= rankings =/= ratings. He is rated at #10 on wrestlestat using an unbiased algorithm. That seems about right and still doesn't take in to account the uncertainty of his long layoff (did not look good last night) or the uncertainty of his postseason weight.

I laid out the reasons for his being overrated already. It is based off of his entire career and not one tournament. He wasn't near a wrestling mat for much of it. Not unless he took it climbing with him.

You are correct in that it isn't a hot take. You are incorrect in the usage of the word accusation as well as the following statement of based on nothing. He deduced, based off the rest of his career aside for one tournament, that he is overrated. It isn't a hot take because it is true and widely believed. Prior to NCAAs he was 10W-6L (62.5% WP) and seeded 11th (not to place). He beat four guys who had better seasons than him to place 5th. He then took a year off - much of it not training because he thought his competitive career was done. It is a fair deduction for him to say he is overrated. It isn't a hot take, though.
