for the last 6 years my son has wrestled at least one or both cotton and beard. i can tell you from expierence it is a mistake to overlook either of these guys. both are quality wrestlers that make few mistakes. both have been there before and most likely will be again. it seems silly to me to motivate bo by looking past him and motivating cotton by talking about beating him. my guess is both of these guys are working hard and preparing to do their talking on the mat
