2019 Wrestling Predictions

It's interesting how kids grow. I was curious and looked back at past weights of the two. The answer also makes me wonder about the statement that was made about meeting each other hundreds of time or whatever it was. Here is a quick comparison going back to 2011:

Mark Hall
2011 - 130
2012 - 152
2013 - 160/76kg
2014 - 170/84kg
2015 - 170/74kg
2016 - 170
2017 - 174
2018 - 174

Zahid Valencia
2011 - 120
2012 - 106/113/120
2013 - 126/58kg (2 wins over Nick Lee)
2014 - 132/66kg
2015 - 182/84kg
2016 - 184/84kg
2017 - 174
2018 - 174

I did see a few matches with Anthony Valencia for Mark and quite a few matches between Bo Nickal and Zahid. Bo won several of them.

In terms of the "hundreds," I believe he was referring to practice goes at the OTC and the like. Not the same as a real competition, I'll admit.

I think Mark H was referring to hundreds of times in practice room (with a bit of hyperbole I’M sure). As your weight classes show, until recently, Mark was a good bit bigger. Not sure how a bigger Mark could lose hundreds of times unless they were all in last 2 years!
