Vito's dad is a world champ, his mom was an Olympian, and he has been more successful in age group events throughout his career. he's more of an athlete....like burroughs measure their high jump broad jump, eplosion.........garret has it.

Interviewed_at_Weehawken Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 I have nothing against Vito, but I would probably prefer Garrett. I like Garrett, and always have, despite some of the claptrap that comes out of his mouth. Still, I have yet to see anything that proves to me that Garrett is a "better athlete" as defined by 'jumping' and "explosion." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dearth of high-caliber athletes is the most obvious impediment to American success in greco. It should come as little surprise that the great 2006 and 2007 teams which finished 3rd and 1st were loaded with legit former collegiate wrestlers that were talented enough to be on the freestyle ladder.
