I don't want to hear some story about why you're so great and how you're going to be so great.

Mphillips 1,735 Report post Posted November 7, 2020 This is another one of those, "but why?" matches. (I still have the same response btw.) There just isn't any upside for JB? Is there a payday? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There just isn't any upside for JB? Is there a payday? I’m sure there is. I’d also agree with Askren’s take that he’s testing the waters to possibly move up eventually. Start with Valencia, if he beats him, then Taylor. Edited November 7, 2020 by 1032004 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alwayswrestling 227 Report post Posted November 7, 2020 It is all about the money and I am ok with that. I would love to have one of these a month especially since I think it is 50/50 on the Olympic trials happening. 1 Mphillips reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Start with Valencia, if he beats him, then Taylor. If JB is considering moving up a weight and still competing at a world level at his age, more power to him. That's badass in my estimation. And if it's for a payday, as @Alwayswrestling alluded to, I'm all for that as well. I hadn't heard what/if the matchwas paying. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmm53 621 Report post Posted November 9, 2020 I don't see Borroughs beating Valencia, who has a size advantage and is probably faster than JB and at least as athletic. And no way does Borroughs beat Taylor at 86 KG. Either way, Borrough's arrogance will be snuffed and probably by Dake, if not by Zahid first. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CA_Wrestler 328 Report post Posted November 9, 2020 Maybe JB's testing the waters at 86 KG because as soon as he moves to Penn, Mark Stall is going to go 74kg even though he's more likely to go 79kg because it'll be a non-Olympics year after next year.

JB is a guy who gets mad at fantasy match predictions... You may not like his opinion but he is not just a wrestler but also a person. He is entitled to give his opinion on things outside of wrestling. Not being an expert on something doesn't mean you can't talk about it. Even with a large size difference I could see JB winning a match against this kid easily. 2 wamba and IfYouAin'tFirstYou'reLast reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
