Future 10th Planet female MMA star Gabby Bella wrestles a boy

[John-Michael Gillaspy]

There's no shame in losing Gabby NJ is a pretty big wrestling state and you did good. You constantly pressured in the first period I couldn't watch after that but you looked great for your first year wrestling. If you're going to be wrestling guys when you tie up it would probably be good for you to hit the Greco club in the off season to learn something like the slide by or duck under which would help you use torque and leverage instead of trying to compete against their upper body strength!

She showed good technique for a first yr. don't forget foot sweeps in the tie up.

[Jim Allen]

yeah i think that rear naked choke is a muscle memory thing with her...lol...

That's exactly what I was thinkin when I was watchin' this, I bet the ol' jiu jitsu muscle memory is gonna kick in somewhere. Gotta love it! And yes, NJ wrestling is VERY competitive. Credit where credit is due steppin out there, great job!

[Enrique "Kiko"]

Awesome job.

[derrick ikwueme]

that's one strong & tuff chick

[Kendra Pegau]

Way to represent Gabby! You kick ass girl. Keep up the intensity and training! AWESOME!

[Dartangan Jackson]

okay im english so forgive me for not knowing the rule or scoring system with this. but how does someone throwing some random thing onto the mat mean that she loses the back and he gets it instead?

I dont know much about High School wrestling either but im sure the stick thing is just letting them know time is up.

Great match Gabby! Was this junior varsity or varsity?

He said this is out of NJ so most likely junior varsity.. I'd be surprised if it was varsity but it didn't look like it. For a first year wrestler it was definitely a good showing.. keep it up.

and you can slam people kinda sorta.. just as long as your knee hits the mat first :P

ooh and the stick is just for the ref to know the rounds over.

I don't know much about wrestling but it seemed like a pretty competitive match. Did he have Gabby in a twister variation towards the end? Are there subs in wrestling?

[bobby rivers]

You would've totally tapped that dude. I've only pure wrestled once. And it was weird. So many rules.
