Ben Bennett would beat both of these guys. Blanton is not that good, and Gambrall would not be able to get off his stomach.

but your right hes not all hes cracked up to be

wow!!! 5 years ago

watched the vid of gambrall v. wright and... gambrall not flashy but WOW!!! the kid gets it done. handles #1 in the nation w/ease. Still don't think he's impressive?

realitt 5 years ago

In any style of wrestling, Gambrall is hit for stalling in the first. Blanton should have gone on his feet in the final period. On Chris Phillips, he loss to Ed Ruth last year, Ruth beat Blanton at Super 32, while Phillips is good, he would not major either of these wrestlers. Roddy came forward and made mistakes. He was beaten even worse by Hunter Collins from Cali. at Seniors.

chris_x 5 years ago

phillips is the real deal. i seen him handle roddy and he was sick when he did it. there isnt anyone that chris phillips wouldnt put a clinic on. including gambrall. infact id go as far to say that phillips would major him. dont believe me, type in his state finals match or the roddy match and tell me what u think

come on 5 years ago

jason welch is not all hes cracked up to be. hes lucky he never wrestled colt sponseller. that wouldve been a masacre

bill_x 5 years ago

except for jason welch

getsthejobdone 5 years ago

You can say what you want about Gambrall. The kid may not be flashy but he absolutely gets the job done. I believe he has beaten the best there is. Every time someone says this person or that person will beat him , he proves you wrong. I believe Phillips is also a quality wrestler, however I don't believe there is a high school wrestler in the country that's going to put a clinic on Gambrall.

hawksgotagoodone 5 years ago

grambrall beat Blanton and Quentin Wright in less than a week. Impressive?

crowdparticipation 5 years ago

empty

William Danforth 5 years ago

Ref's Potentially Dangerous calls were questionable at best. Chris Phillips would put on a takedown clinic with either of these guys.

me 5 years ago

terrible match no set ups at all... head dives!!!

this sucks 5 years ago

are you kidding me??? come to ohio if you want to see real wrestling. that was poor especially for an "all-star" meet. wow

this kid beat blanton? 5 years ago

i can't believe this happened. gambrall is not impressive at all. how in the world could this have been so close, and not have been in blanton's favor? unfortunately, blanton's huge ttankdidn't help against this stall rider.....
