Cassar to 285 ?

What's up, FT! Man, I dunno; I thought that first righty hi-c was supa slick. The bigger guy had the smaller one froze af, lowered his level, got in deep. Purrrty!
I was also impressed with how he spun behind a few times. He had pounds on Parris but he beat him with quickness. Only time the pounds came into play was on the turns. But it still wasn't a "freestyle win" to my eyes, I think the same result in folk.

It is always funny watching Freestyle with a mind wondering about Folk. In neutral, it's fun and easy: "well, THAT looked slick! He keeps that up, kids'll be in trouble."

Which is immediately followed by either:
a. Leg lace rolled over x times for game over or;
b. Bottom bro supermans and ref stands em up and we're like: "oh, I guess we'll have to wait to see what periods two & three might look like."

Not an expert but it doesn't take one to realize that Snyder and Coon are 2 major losses for the weight -- one an all-time great at any weight, the other probably the all-time best heavy to never win a title and made the world Greco team immediately after college.

Dhesi and Kasper are also significant losses. Throw in the health uncertainty with Stoll and Nevills, and conceivably only 2 AAs return: Hemida (8th) and Sasquatch (3rd in 2017, DNP 2018)..
Can't find it now, thought I read that Dhesi might be back, if granted another year. Anyone know?
