I may be getting old but I thought you spent the last year informing us that Pico is already better than Metcalf. I figured you would at least pick him to win.
Bad news for a lot of people. He has beat Reece Humphrey and a recent world champ. Was beating senior level guys when he was 16.Also, heard he killed a bear when he was only 3. He spends a lot of time in Russia learning from them too. Love me some Metcalf, but Pico is a tough kid with a great attitude. Will be fun.
Pico has a more limited offensive arsenal than Brent. If his head snaps aren't working he isn't going to score.
He is a stud but his learning curve isn't anything like a typical 18 year old. He has had a personal trainer for most of his life and is probably closer to 25 than 18 on his learning curve.
No problem MSU - you stated that in another post. I was commenting in general about the Mat - I do go read some of the bs on the board occasionally - it can be humorous and entertaining. You can find some interesting rumors on that board (even a few good ones on this one at times also).
This is plausible, anyone that's ever been in a wrestling room has seen guys get heated. I think everyone would say that Pico would be the favorite in an MMA matchup with Brent.
I linked it for you. Pico better have improved a ton since that match or he is getting TF'd
I agree, but I have little doubt that Pico is Improving. At 18 years old he isn't even at his prime yet. At 28, Metcalf is nearing the end of his. I still go Metcalf in this one, He is a great veteran wrestler who is still at the top of his game. I do think by the time Pico hits his 20's, Pico will have surpassed him. If Pico can beat Metcalf now, at 18 years old...Damn...I definitely see an Olympic medal for him in a few years.
