Amazing talent no doubt; riding a 3+ year hype train, first ever home dual, shirt just got pulled, sent notice to the top 2, and he's just an 18 year old kid...... It's a lot to handle. I totally get it. So he gets a pass. This time.
IMO someone's got Eggum on his face.
That coach better get that shite under control and fast. If not hell have an immature freshman phenom running that program. Celebrating a victory post match is expected, showboating with the Ali foot shuffle and other antics in the middle of the match..... (I'll save my powder for the next time). It shows huge disrespect for his opponent who is worthy of respect, and there is a lengthy list beyond that.... And before we hear the defenders this is nothing like what Bo even yes Gilman or others have done.
If I want my fill of showboating, I'll catch an NBA game or watch the NFL where it s degraded to the point where someone has to make a 'statement' after every play.
What's worse, if this isn't corrected it will spread.
We all have been waiting to see what this kid brings and become supportive enthusiastic fans. I have a general aversion to punks and any repeat of that as a freshman comes across as punkish in my book. I hope he doesn't make it so we all watch hoping that someone takes him down a notch. I can think of one other new heavyweight this year who is the perfect candidate.
Maybe Gable should go back and study his is namesake, or Nolf, or Zain, or Spencer, or DT or Cael, or... any in the long list of champions whose hype was displayed in bright lights on the scoreboard, as opposed to MTV.
Heck Nolf plays with good food before eating almost every match but he would never try to humiliate a lesser opponent.
There are few things more admirable than a "classy" champion.
Hey Flo - can't wait to hear your take, I am really hoping you don't try to not offend. If I had to bet you'll go 2 liked it and 2 don't.... That would be very disappointing as well.
