Also, I assume he’s not wrestling a lot since HS and he was going up against a professional MMA fighter.  
You sound disappointed that he didn’t easily pin down a former MMA champion?

Doesn’t mean Fairchild will become the next Montoya but he was impressive in that video.

If you are wrestling and have around a 100 pound advantage, yes I would hope he could brute Sean to the ground and hold him there.

Same as when I did ju-jitsu and could bully smaller/weaker opponents with year more experience and greater shill levels.

The video was unimpressive.

Just my take and opinion, and are welcome to your own as well.

Love to see the o-line start specializing in prioritizing and training grip strength, but that is another soapbox for another day...
