Freestyle Brackets Up.. Gavin vs. Poeta 1st Rd
Re: Freestyle Brackets Up.. Gavin vs. Poeta 1st Rd
It is a fun first round match-up in the qualifier, but neither guy has a good chance of winning the tournament following this one, and both will probably make the next tournament.
FWIW, this tournament is a bit of a joke. As soon as the qualify - if they are not going for first - everybody defaults out.
Having said that.... the 145 qualifier is brutal. There should be some fun matches before the defaults.
Re: Freestyle Brackets Up.. Gavin vs. Poeta 1st Rd
Scott Winston is at 163 as well.
Also, what is Tanner Gardner doing at 145.5?
Simpson vs Metcalf should be fun as well.
Re: Freestyle Brackets Up.. Gavin vs. Poeta 1st Rd
Yup, all very intertaining "minor league" matches to be sure. I am going tomorrow (Chertow is having me work) and look forward to the match-ups. Most of those guys will get to the ones already qualified, and with an upset here and there will mostly look pretty tough, but still lose 2-1;4-0, or 1-1;0-2;0-4, type matches. It's just the nature of what those on the senior circuit for awhile do to those up and comers.
The Simpson/Metcalf match-up will sort of see what concentrating on the style, versus somebody who hasn't been, means for Simpsons potential as a "player".

How can Winston wrestle at FILA Juniors and Senior Nationals at the same time? He must have a lot of energy.
