"those defending Nickal's choice to go the wrong weight" Just curious on how you are the authority on what is right for Nickal to do with his life. Please explain. How much time have you invested in his development to be such an authority? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is not done in any attempt to harm or insult anyone. I have used keggers since I was younger and active in power lifting. It isn't a term I invented, merely a term I heard and implemented. Honestly shouldn't be a big deal nor hard to explain. 2 hours ago, AHamilton said: Thanks, so much! It hopefully catches on!

Plasmodium 1,603 Report post Posted May 11, 2020 If the man wants to say keggers instead of kilos be it. For clarity, a keg weighs about 160, a kilo 2.2 and a kegger as I know it is variable since it starts at full and ends at empty. 1 madcat11 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My point is you are looking stupid when you say Bo has only wrestled one tournament at 97 while the guy you’re probably picking only has wrestled one tournament at 97. You are spending way too much energy on a guy who you say has no shot at making the team. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bo got totally manhandled? Did you watch the matches? I know match 2 Cox won more comfortably but match 1 was literally 2-2 and Bo got taken down with under 5 seconds to go while furiously trying to score. They were fairly even. Bo weighed in at 87.7 kg for what it is worth. I feel like 97 kg is too heavy for him to compete with Cox and Snyder but I definitely pick Bo against anyone in the world at 92 kg and it won’t shock me if he takes a match from Snyder or Cox at 97.

Bo was definitely close to scoring before Cox had a great defensive move turn into points. We will see what happens, but Bo definitely has a shot.
