headshuck 2,311 Report post Posted April 5 Who will help Gable prepare for the Olympics? Who in the US can hang with him? Gwiz and Parris can’t seems to get to his legs. Can someone like Cox bulk up a bit to work with him? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crash 169 Report post Posted April 5 My training partner predictions: Gilman -- Fix or RBY (outside shot Zain) JO - Yianni (Yianni won't decline) Dake - JB (Nolf if JB declines) Taylor - Bo (Valencia if Bo declines) Snyder - Cox (Moore of Cox declines) Gable - Nelson (Gwiz if Nelson declines) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wrestlingphish 702 Report post Posted April 5 RBY and Gilman have apparently become really close so I would bet Gilman takes him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D White 10 Report post Posted April 5 If not Bo, I see DT taking Brooks. An outside shot of Cenzo, who has trained with DT previously but may just be too small. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You don't bring threats with you to learn from you and be your training partners. You definitely don't bring someone who has the motivation to twist you knee and get their Olympic shot. RBY is a possibility, perhaps Yianni.Certainly not Fix, JB, Bo, Cox, Noore, or Gwiz. Usually the training partners are non-threats years away from making an Olympic run or even someone in a different weight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And even then you have to be careful. Dake was JB's training partner the summer after Dake's junior year. Allegedly, JB encouraged Dake to move up and go for 1st at 4 weights.

Gilman- RBY is definitely possible JO- Likley someone like O'connor or someone he trains with regularly. Yianni wouldn't be too much of a surprise since they were partners for around a year. Dake- No way JB, it will be someone from Cornell Taylor- Bo is probably high on the list, will be someone from NLWC Snyder- Likely someone from NLWC Gable- Nelson is highly likely Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fair point but wouldn't you think it would be beneficial to have someone who can somewhat mimick the styles of the international guys. By that I mean guys like gwiz or parris who are athletic and can move. Obviously Nelson has done a fine job preparing him for the domestic guys but the international guys are a completely different story, idk though just my take on it.

As far as Bo, I assume it is possible. I just feel there is a lot we do not know about Bo's current relationship with DT, his MMA career, and the conflict of interest. Snyder could bring Kerkvliet.

Both Snyder and DT have plenty of options in the NLWC room of guys they regularly go with. At this point in time these guys are all well established with their current camps and it is hard to imagine they go outside of their current training situations. JO and Dake are the hard ones to pin down. I would guess Dake works out a lot with the Dean brothers so they would be my guess at this point. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wrestlingphish 702 Report post Posted April 5 I would imagine they look something like this: Gilman - RBY Oliver - O'Connor or one of the Mondays (he is most likely to choose someone non-traditional) Dake - Gabe Dean Taylor - Bo or Brooks Snyder - Bo or Kerkvliet Gable - Nelson I could see NLWC using this as an opportunity to give their next generation a chance to get a feel for the big show. 2 AHamilton and uncle bernard reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
