de4856 Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Well, something is amiss with Fix. Question is, what? Is it an injury? Is it that people have figured him out? Is it something else, or a combination of things? And what does Fix do about it? Now I don’t know if Fix has any eligibility left, his Bio says that he’s a Redshirt Senior, but there’s the Covid year and an Olympic year, so idk. But if he’s done with college does he stay or does he make a move to another RTC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how the heck is daddy still the RTC coach after that?? The only explanation IMO is they know it wasn't actually daddy's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formally140 Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Situation is what it is. Pretty clear actually watching him wrestle that he hasn’t been the same since.. things happened. Hold no ill will to him. Just is what it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1032004 Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 FRL brought up a good point that while it may not really be HEW, he does have a lot of miles and isn't exactly super young in wrestling terms anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Field wasn’t nearly what it would normally be. In a non Olympic weight in an Olympic year. Again, no I’ll will towards him personally. I’m also well aware you’re friends with the family.

alliseeisgold Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 this is a situation of nashon garret being just that dude.......he is the next world medalist to surprise people Athlete wise, he has the most potential we've seen sine jordan burroughs. Garrett has what fix doesn't have, an ability to get to the leg, a supremely better upside potential then fix Garrett has more offensive and defensive potential and god given talent then vito for both it's about being stronger in the middle of the mat, smarter, tougher. i will be be betting on garret to take out vito Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theo Brixton Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 So when was "peak" Daton Fix vs. senior competition? I don't think his World silver is necessarily relevant. A 2021 World silver immediately after the Olympics in a non-Olympic weight? Who did he beat? An argument can be made for 2019 being his peak. This is when he beat Gilman, arguably his best domestic win. And HEW can absolutely be related to hormonal status. "Testosterone makes effort feel good". It also probably doesn't help to have his old man as his coach. Getting your ass chewed out by your father after losing is probably something that gets old real quick. I saw that up close in Nur Sultan and thought it was pretty lame. Who really knows what's going on. Maybe Mastrogiovanni stole his girlfriend and he never got over it?
