Re: 176's right hand « Reply #160 on Nov 4, 2009, 5:23pm »
I'm not a hater at all. In fact I said I thought Brandon was the most impressive 154/165 guy in the country IMHO. All I said is that I felt due to styles the match would lean towards Allen. I didn't say he would smash him or beat him easily or anything close to that. I gave Brandon the credit I believe he deserves, then gave an opinion based on styles about a match between him and one of the best in our sport's history. Saying that "due to styles" I felt like Allen would beat Brandon is hardly "hating" it's Allen Fisher we are talking about, not some scrub...Saying that Allen may have an advantage due to styles is actually quite a compliment to Brandon.
I picked him over Ethan, Luke, Corey, Herman, and several others...I'd hardly call that hating..

JP is dead on styles make fights, Fisher could not be any worse for Dye. I know as Brandon and I have a lot of similarities. The toughest opponents for him would be Fisher, Cobra, Klemba, due to hand size and style. Harris is always a challenge because he is tough to pin, strong and very diverse. Klemba, Harris, Cobra all sit on top of the 176 rankings, under me mind you.....
The hand and style variation for those guys can be overcome no question, Brandon has power, he simply needs to get the control needed to impose it upon them.

Plaster just to clarify I wasn't directing it toward you. I agree with what you said completely. Styles do make battles. Case in point Brandon has beat Luke and Kyle but lost to Vazgen. Vazgen lost to Luke and Kyle this year. So I hear you fully. There is just a trend that he's not ready he's not ready.

If you believe in yourself you can do anything! I had never thought I would have beaten Vazgen because he is number 1. No one in the U.S has beaten him at that weight this year. I trained hard and had alot of positive support from alot of my friends and family. I did the impossible it seemed like! beat the best of the best in the U.S at 154! If I can do that than why couldnt anyone else!? you just have to believe in yourself and train hard and you can do the impossible! If Brandon believes in himself and keeps training like he has been he can do the impossible! He can beat the Fish! There is no cant!!!

Maybe time for an Update based one recent wins and activity I would say
1.Luke Kindt 2. Allen Fisher 3. Brandon Dye 4. Mike Mcgraw 5. Herman McCoy 6. Harold Ryden 7. Darren Wartena 8. Jake Smith 9. Ulysses Jones 10 Devin Bair
Just to explain I know Devin Bair is an exceptional puller but I haven't seen or heard a whole lot about him if I'm wrong correct me but I'm not aware of his activity level currently.
