Wow is Chris really pulling 4 days before this tournament? Damn I don't know, in that case Frank will probably give him hell, it should be a great match. Plaster, you'd better make it! Here's what I did, March 19th toproll tournament, 21st Fireside Lounge, 28th a tournament in Wisconsin, this weekend Pull for the Hungry, next weekend a tournament in MN... April 23rd hopefully this! Jewfro, you think Nick will beat Richard Lupkes? Nick Zinna is no joke! I dont think he can match power with Richard(few can) but dont count him out. He has a wicked fast Top-roll. I know... he really impressed be at the toproll tournament. But if Richard is as good as he was last summer I doubt he'll go down. He was ranked 6th in the world I believe at that time.

OK, first off, Thank you Jim.
Next, Hiding?.......90% of all the tournaments I competed at 198.........I didn't even have to kick my shoes off to make weight. Actually the ONLY tournament I had trouble making 198 was ROTN and there was a scale issue there and besides "hiding" the 198s were worth an extra $1000 bucks.............sue me I sat in a sauna once. I can't help it that god gave me small legs and lots a weight in my upper body. I honestly don't duck anyone, when approached with a challenge match proposal I don't even haggle about weight like it is non existent, I say whatever they come in at.................that is how I feel, If you wanna make to the top, you can't be crying because your opponent is 5 lbs heavier...........or 50 for that matter............PULL.
Frank and Chris....hmmmmmmmmm................it has the potential to be real good.............potential.
I will give Chris the obvious nod in power.............very dangerous for frank in alot of spots. I can't help but think that despite the power difference that Chris will not be able to hold onto him and be caught in an ugly position. To control frank you need a wicked hand and wrist.............Chris' 1 weak or lesser of the evils area. If he maintains his hand it will be fast for chris..............if.......................I don't think he has the hand for it right now. Frank is comfy in the straps also. Frank is my boy, and I really want to see him win since he is stepping in my spot, but I'll give the nod to Chris as I do respect his abilities.

This tournament will be 4 days after Chris pulls about 4 weight classes in Florence Oregon (will Brzenk be there?). So it will be a tired 198lb Chandler....but he still takes the win IMO If Brzenk is there......he will kill him. Why are you already cushioning this for Chris ? Chris should take this match seriously, if he decides to put a handicap on himself and gets his ass whipped.........his bad, but don't start padding it. The way I see it, if Chris does anything but crush Frank it will take him down in status........not a knock on Frank, but a knock on how high a level you all are puting Chris at........lotsa pressure there. Frank will make this match VERY uncomfortable, and I have seen him pull off some BIG wins........don't be fooled, Chris better be on point.

I went down south to hear from the "Family" doctor and he said "NO PULLING RIGHT HANDED YOU IDIOT!!"...He also said I don't need surgery but I need to let it heal and not go to work. No bone "disease" either...
But I'm training my left.
So ya I'm following Doc's orders.
