nhs67 Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 Starocci - Blue Dragons Jr in Round 1 at 86 KG. Starocci is the 6 seed at 86 KG. "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhs67 Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 Green at the 3 seed is preposterous. He has like 40 losses at 65 KG and no wins. 1 "I know actually nothing. It isn't even conjecture at this point." - me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhs67 Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 So Starocci is clearly not 'all' healthy. Did they have the winner of Starocci-Blue Dragons Jr against Thicclay just in case Blue Dragons Jr does get past a heavily injured Starocci? Imagine him taking a thump to the dome from a full-sized Thicclay. 1 "I know actually nothing.

SocraTease Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Starocci clearly couldn't make 74KG and realized it. Figured he might as well eat and wrestle up. No way was he seeing 163 pounds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truzzcat Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 just a day after pyles says "all news from the penn state camp is that the cut is going well for carter" he declares for 86kg lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SocraTease Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 At 74 KG, Nolf has to go through Cenzo, O'Toole and Borroughs. At 57 KG, it could be a Lee vs. Gilman final. At 65 KG, a possible Zain vs. Alirez or Nick Lee final At 125 KG, Gwiz vs. Kerk should be interesting 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MM is arguably better at FS than Folk. And we know the cut is a thing for JB (hence why he's been at 79 kg). I think it's definitely interesting.

Truzzcat Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 I think MM's leg defense is really the only part of his game that is not world class I think JB gets to his legs a bit too often early and he overpowers him. If MM can keep it relatively close late he could definitely run him down though. I would actually pick qunicy over MM though he had a 1 point match with nolf and teched marinelli at the BF and senior nats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he grow right after that loss? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truzzcat Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Starocci vs Trent is a match I never thought I would see but I am absolutely here for it. I feel like Yianni got a very favorable draw, Larkin first match is not ideal but is one I certainly expect him to win, and then he will get zain fresh off the scale which seems to be the more winnable matchup for him than Lee before accounting for the cut. Chance vs Zahid is a very interesting matchup stylistically I'll be interested to see if zahid can open him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
