kurt angle olympic wrestling gold meadlist doing mma...
« on: October 19, 2010, 12:44:29 AM »
anyone think that kurt angle in his prime doing mma would dominate.  
history shows clg wresstlers always did well,coleman,beock etc,
amgle did win olympic gold and did say he woulda did mma,,, he had some talk with d white after wwf bfor tna,,
 he claims he would hav signed with tna and white could have a prowsrtler in ufc.... still with all his injuries,, he did say he'd need time to heal from road and to train but he couldnt leave wreslting so obv nvr went down....
kurt and chuck lidell had some heat at one time

lot ppl say brock was the strongest wrestler they ever matchd with...
think about this,,,  supposedly angle took down brock numerous time witout brock getting anlge one,,,  kurt did say tho that brock was   strongest even wrestld but claimed he had better hip action and quickness,,, thats w angle all screwed up, neck, nerve damg, road sched...

piont is wrestlers did well in mma/ufc... kurt is know for work ethic... other wreslters, gr8 collegiatewrstlrs deemd oly worhter did even attempt bc of the work,, so he has that and everything else to be best in world,,, if he woulda trained for the length of time brock did at stand up muttai, tae kwon bjj etc basically what ever brock did...................

angle would have brocks number,
more than likely everyone else too for a while prob...

i think he would be a champion in mma - no doubt about it.

i know he has had problems with his neck, but he has also never had a proper break to recover from injuries etc.

mma means he could rest for months at a time, before stepping up training for a few months before his fights.

Too old. Too many injuries, especially to his neck. He's like 42 now. Should have made the move to go pro years ago.

He would have taken a massive paycut, had he done that. Plus, like Lesnar, he left WWE because Vince McMahon worked him like a mule (though he paid him quite well).

good point,,, he never did get a break,, except from after oly then prowrest...  the mma shced woulda been so much lighter

yeah,, more like yrs ago tho... i do think after wwf if he would have signed with ufc instead of tna he would hav done some damage,,,  think he prob had too many injuries even if he would recovered for a yr what ev...
mma during his younger yrs tho....

He would have taken a massive paycut, had he done that. Plus, like Lesnar, he left WWE because Vince McMahon worked him like a mule (though he paid him quite well).

yeah, supposedly thats why he didnt sign ufc and went tna instead,,, he wanted to do both but d white said he couldnt hav had a pro wrest;ler on his roster...
ride about being a mule,,, it'd take trainers 20 before everymatch just to work on him massage,,, cortisone, novocaine  shot etc...
he is legendary for his incredible drive and work ethic

there is certian level of adapting for mma also. There are examples of olympic level wrestlers that have failed in mma. cant remember names right away though but I know its the truth.

If kurt angle started training mma before he totally RUINED himself it might have gotten interesting

Today Angel is a drug addict prick, but back when he wrestled he was a badass.  The guy never cut weight.
