So Ferrari vs Gable?

[Antitroll2828 987]

Could Ferrari possibly bump up and take on Gable, it’s Minnesota home opener , I’m sure WWE will be in attendance bc they are documenting gables season and by the time their weights are up the dual should be in the bag for ok st …both Ferrari and gable are showman , I could 100 percent see Ferrari wanting to do it question is would John smith allow it?

[treep2000 1,124]

I think it's now a foregone conclusion that Gable was absolutely destroy Ford Focus.  No contest.

Gable would spike Ferrari like a football

I think if Ferrari bumped up he would get humiliated.

Gable would not be a "bump up" for Focus, he deadlifts 665lbs!

Amen, but Ferrari will learn the hard way, nothin' dead about Gable's weight.

[Sheerstress 168]

I don't think John Smith would forbid it if Ferrari really wanted to do it, but it wouldn't end well for him.

[Antitroll2828 987]

I never said he would win but he has the stones to do it , and he’s all about putting on a show and really has nothing to lose from it , I’m curious to see if it happens

As much as I would love to see the bloodbath, Ferrari has a lot to lose, like his health in an early season relatively meaningless match.  The size differential would be substantial and Ferrari is no Kyle Snyder.

Ferrari cuts a lot to 197, he d probably weigh in around 200 and gable is what 260? I mean Coon was 285 and synder was 215ish,  and Ferrari is a freak athlete , like I said I don’t he would win but I’d love to see it 

[ionel 2,437]

More likely: will The Gabel seek payback for the goose when he takes the mat while the Focus exits?

I'd agree, it'd be fun to see and its not clear how Gable would takedown Ferrari because of his quickness but can't see Ferrari's takedowns working on Gable.

Snyder beat Coon with a similar weight discrepancy and he gave up more in length than Twister would.  Of course, comparing Snyder to Ferrari and Coon to Steveson is apples and oranges. 

Conclude no contest, with skill being the deciding factor and size being a minor factor.

Ferrari could bump up and run from Gable in neutral and keep it close in a folkstyle match.  He could play the edge and kill 30 seconds dropping to the ankle, and probably survive a 5-1 type loss.  In FS he'd get teched in the 1st period because the out of bounds would make him wrestle. 

But why bump up to then run away?  Why bump up when he has no move in his bag that has even a remote chance at scoring?  Why not just bluster in a social media post about a catch weight of 230 that you know will never happen?  Bottom line is that this seems like a dumb idea even as a huge OSU fan and a big Ferrari fan.

Gable eats Ferrari-sized steaks.
Ferrari can’t handle a Gable-sized helping of humble pie.

That, and Gable is a lot better than Coon

It wouldn't begin well either.

Is there a history of top 197 guys bumping up to take on top heavyweights? (And I don't mean Snyder b/c when he wrestled heavyweight he was a heavyweight.) Cael never did it, did he?

Certainly 97s have can't think of specific "top" 97s but certain it won't happen here as OSU has a good hwt that needs experience, John does not duck experience opportunities.

This.  I don’t think Ferrari would win, but I think he could keep it relatively close.  Ferrari is good on his feet so I don’t think Gable could take him down at will like he does with most guys, but I don’t think Ferrari could take down Gable.  And I doubt Gable turns him

[Perry 1,423]

I honestly think John smith would actually be entertained watching gable beat the crap out of ferrari

[dmm53 610]

Can we Crowdfund the event to lure both of them to the mat? 

Some of the funds could be used to pay AMC Gremlin's (Ferrari's) hospital bill.

The difference here is that Snyder was an Olympic gold medalist.

In this case the vastly heavier wrestler is the Olympic gold medalist.

Not trying to be a smart ass here but, you realize within that ‘most guys’  includes guys like Gwiz, Taha Akgul, Petrashvilli. He’s taking those guys down at will….what’s an undersized Ferrari going to have for him??

He's taking those guys down with a FS boundary rules.  Folkstyle allows Ferrari to live on the edge and kill time in lots of ways.  Plus the guys you referenced were attacking and lots of Steveson's scores were counters against guys actually trying to win.  I think Steveson is multiple levels better and also way bigger.  I think Ferrari has a zero chance of scoring, let alone winning.  But I still think it's relatively low scoring if it happened (it won't).
