10/10 for name
1/10 for not even making the us squad and dialing in trails

Pico and Fortune are both ranked in Bellator. Gillespie is ranked in UFC. Ruth was ranked before he retired.

How the hell did any of those guys get embarrassed?

Pico should be a cautionary tale on how not to run your career. He should have went to regional promotions and built up slowly, instead of getting 3 bad losses in a bigger promotion.

An 8-3 record for a prime talent like him is ridiculous.

Bo Nikal has also teamed up with American Top Team to build a gym next to Penn State so that can recruit the college’s best wrestlers in order to build a championship Pro Team.

His wrestling is obviously going to be extremely difficult to deal with, but the biggest questions with any of these guys are how they'll react when getting hit and can they develop enough well-rounded skills to threaten people in a department other than wrestling. I'm excited to watch Bo. I was a huge fan of him in college. I also wonder what weight class he's going to fight at. He last wrestled at 197 for Penn State, but I don't think he weighed anything over 193 for that entire season. I think his frame is better suited for middleweight considering how tall and gangly he is.

MMA is slowly going away from wrestling backgrounds in favor of striking based entertainment value, as a result MMA is devolving in skill. Adesanya, Ngannou, Jan and others were nothing even half a decade ago when those divisions had great wrestlers who would have grapplefucked them.

Not sure if it’s pro or ammy mma. Guessing pro though. Anyone interested? He should be a huge prospect that all the companies would want to sign.
