flyingcement Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I don't see Ferrari going for Italy unless he is banned from the US team. DeSanto... maybe but I doubt it. Suriano - absolutely 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgaveMaria Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 They aren't defecting. They keep American citizenship or move to obtain citizenship in their new country. it isn't like Cubans and Russians defecting.

MizzouFan01 Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 From an interview I recently saw with Pico, forgot who did the interview , he said he’s open to trying to compete for team Mexico if he can’t get a fight soon. Mentioned RBY, Gomez and Valencia as already competing for them. Said if he were to go that route he would most likely have to face Gomez for the spot. Found that interesting that he might make a comeback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that is like ~34 hours, not 24 hours. "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
