Wait he planning to enter the Olympics? He 39, that seems like an odd decision.

I guess he thinks that age will not catch up to him.

If you look at Joes wrestling credentials especially greco ( arguably the hardest, gritiest grinding wrestling style) the guy is an absolute animal . I really wish he could be 8 or 10 years younger, he would be a sure fire UFC bw title contender, pprobably champion in my opinion ... hopefully in the next life ..

@WastelandWanderer Warren missed the 2008 Olympics due to a positive marijuana test.  Warren said that these trials were his last attempt to make it to the US Olympic team, he will try to qualify at 59 kilos. Hopefully, he is healthy enough to attend the trials.

I know ridiculous man ... well I  suppose weed is a dangerous life altering drug causing sickness and bad health to the masses, similar to alcohol,  tobacco, sugar, caffeine,  prescription meds. .
Still he became greco world champ in his post 20s (prime wrestling years, a feat like that is legendary in its self ... as far as I remember he's last USA greco world champion ? Praise Warren
