bart gunn lost his match at the last pride event. big suprise or not? maybe he should of brought a steel chair to the ring with him. or maybe he lost because his tag team partner was missing. what do you think?

yes, i'm sure he knows what mma is. it was kind of a joke. i just don't see a pro wrestler being a great mma fighter. so he beat cabbage, big deal. everyone can get lucky. i feel he should stick to battle royals and steel cage matches.

Sakuraba was a Pro Wrestler and look how he turned out. He's hit legendary status to all MMA fans.

Also, I think that Brock Lesnar has a lot of potential, he's a good wrestler, also I imagine he is really Powerful, and who better to train with when your a powerful wrestler than Royce Gracie? (To better his subs obv.)

But some Wrestlers turned MMA fighters are a joke (Giant Silva, haha)

One more thing, I heard Bob Sapp was in talks with the WWE. Devastated, love Sapp and his incredibly sloppy, yet hilarious style

I think there are a few pro wrestlers that would be great to watch and probably pretty good in MMA. The only thing is most every WWE wrestler uses steroids, which i don't agree with.

Kurt Angle won a gold medal in the Olympics, there has never been a fighter in the UFC who was a gold medal olympic wrestler.

ok i'll give you sakuraba, but brock lesnar might of been good in college, he sucked in the wwe and he wouldn't have a prayer in mma. and kurt angle is a gold medalist, but it's a whole new ball game when you have someone striking you when you are trying to apply the ankle lock.

true, very true, but %90 of fights go to the ground at somepoint. So im sure Angle wouldnt get killed.

Brock Lesnar IMO is a 300lbs Matt Hughes when Hughes first started out. I think his sheer size will get him through, I know this seems silly If he could cut to 265 I think he could take Sylvias belt in a year or 2, if he evolves as quick as Koscheck is doing then I think he could be a good MMA fighter.

Also don't be silly

Kurt Angle wouldn't try an Ankle lock in an MMA fight. I get the fact you don't like wrestling, but there is no denying some Wrestlers can turn out to be great MMA fighters.
