Prata was never supposed to be Joey Dance and there’s a reason Myers was rumored to be bumping to 125 and most expect to have stiff competition at the weight next year.

I’d have to rewatch Gerardi to see what happened. Sometimes timing on a single movement is wrong and that’s all it takes. As we all remember, Mekhi caught 2 time defending national champion Cenzo Joseph in a cradle in the finals. So like I said, it can happen no matter the stakes.

i do think Borst might need a slightly different strategy. He created the action for 6.5 minutes but not quite enough to generate stall points. I do agree he’s had some issues with that and ultimately gives up decisive points late in matches. Many people would argue he’s wrestling at the wrong weight. The skills Robie gushes about with Borst rarely seem to shine, especially once a big guy gets on top and grinds him down.

I hate to lose but once I stop to think, I have no doubt that the team is giving it their all to win.
