This is more like it, HKP.

I was dismayed and disappointed that the original article you sourced referred to his time as an Olympian when he’s a former WWE wrestler, which is way more impressive and awesome.

I like him less for dropping out of the CJI, kind of a bitch move.

CJI was/is a gimmick…

Gable used it to get an actual path…

Best career move gable has made since foregoing what he is actually the best on the planet at..

I hope to check the main card out.

Looks like Gable trained with Jones’ camp for the bout. I predict a quick sub. His striking looked really bad in videos I saw, so hopefully he doesn’t test it too much.

Fellow Minnesota wrestler Mitch McKee main events the card and might be UFC bound with a win.

Let’s go Gable!

The first CJI was possibly the best submission grappling event of all time. Just scummy to commit to something you have no intention of doing while having an ulterior plan.

But, it did give us the Chael sleepytime highlight clip and Gable is undoubtedly a beast, probably the best new prospect the sport has had in a while.

I’m just irritated because I wanted to see him and Craig Jones, even though it was a freak match from the get go. Hope he starts chucking people in MMA.

Clearly the backwards wrestling community stepped in to prevent Stevenson from bringing more shame.

Might as well just bring him into the UFC now.
