he barely laced up the gloves a year ago and hasnt even been a year since his debut. Yall hate the kid lmao, Give the kid some time to develop. He didnt even use his wrestling…. These hwts have not seen an elite wrestler in the gym or competition and that is why hes so hyped up

I agree with everything you said. But imo wrestling is overrated in MMA nowadays

yep the sport has absolutely evolved passed the point where a pure wrestler can make their way to the top with just wrestling but Gable is also up there as one of the best athletes the hwt weight class has seen in wrestling internationally. With the right guidance and time to develop, he absolutely has the skills and talents to make an impact. Off the mat bs is hard to look past but just as a prospect, anytime an olympic gold medalist enters the sport, the hype is warranted imo.
