Default Prop bet: Bigger/stronger vs smaller/weaker guy w/wrestling training

Breakdown
Me:
age 24
5'10"
175 lbs
lift 2-3 x week, including squats and deads
cardio 2-3 x week

Pretty strong dude. Naturally athletic. Not pure muscle, but fairly solid build. No hand to hand, martial arts, or combat training at all

Him:
age 22
5'5"
150 lbs
Has very rarely worked out over the last 2 years.
Build is average. Not fat or grossly out of shape. But is soft and has some man boobs coming in. Naturally, he's fairly athletic.

**Wrestler all through High School. He wasn't all-state or anything like that, but he was very good and considered above average**

We've been discussing having a wrestling match prop bet. I know of a place at my old college where we'd be able to wrestle on some mats. I doubt we would do any kind of scoring. Probably whoever pins the other first. Is this a sucker bet? Body compared to body I obviously have the upper hand, but does his experience virtually guarantee a loss for me?

If we agree to have a match, anyone got tips for my best chance to win this match?

Should I get odds?

Because of your strength advantage I dont think he is likely to pin you, and because you don't know any techniques i think you are unlikely to pin him..

try looking up double/single leg takedowns and half nelson.

I think you will be able to outlast him if you are defensive and let him wear out trying to move you.

Dude you must be ripped.

Wrestler owns you quick and it's not even close. Get good odds.

If you don't have any wresting ability, you stand little chance. You should ask for huge odds.

If he's worth anything in wrestling, he'll probably dominate you.

meh. Best advice I can give is to use your weight to your advantage.
