Le duke Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 [mention=70]Le duke[/mention] I'm still baffled by the comment that I should have put "/s" after 285 lbs. I merely said Wyatt Hendrickson was 285 lbs. Stop. And he had Air Force Academy training which includes hand to hand combat. Stop. WTF "per second" has to do with that is beyond me. It's been well over 40 years since my last Physics class, but I can assure you those Laws don't change, unlike governmental laws./s is common internet parlance indicating sarcasm. Having worked at USAFA and being friends with several others who work there, I can assure you that the combatives program is a waste of time for an athlete of Wyatt Hendrickson’s caliber. It’s for the average cadet at USAFA, checking a box for combat-ish readiness training. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly, I was not thinking about how much the physical fitness bar has been lowered in all of society. Bottom line, I'll take Hendrickson, anybody else can have the field.

Here are a few other current NCAA wrestlers that I think would be tough in a street fight: Zac Braunagel, Tony Cassioppi, Levi Haines I can't picture Cassioppi being a street fighter, and from my experience, I see most great wrestling heavyweights as being pretty mild mannered, not that they couldn't flip a switch, not considered D1 right now, but Gabe Steveson would be a bad dude in a street fight. Pound for pound Nick Suriano fits the mold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerfan Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I thought the theory was always a great wrestler would always beat a great boxer in a street fight as long as they could defend a punch or two before they get ahold of them? Has MMA changed that calculus? If it’s still true, then I’d take Keegan O’Toole, since he’s the best there is in D1 right now. M. I. Z… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Vito has already said that he is coming back. He self-admitted that he has been in college too long and that the whole proposition of him delaying his final year of eligibility another full season is silly. It's been in 3 or 4 different interviews that he has said almost word for word the same thing. "I know actually nothing.

Carr is faster, stronger, and looks quite a bit more mean. Both are great wrestlers. Top notch. But i believe O'Toole is better at adapting to the competition and exposing your weaknesses than Carr. They both have great coaching. They are both stellar athletes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
