[QUOTE="ArrowHead%20nli:443104"]TheAccursedDrummer nli said:[QUOTE]ArrowHead nli said:[QUOTE]Wrestlers are trained to do flashy gymnastics for 10 minute stretches at a time. They are well tuned, well trained athletes.[/QUOTE] True, but pro MMA fighters are trained to fight up to 25 minute matches, with intense cardio punishment, and must be guarded against stiking, grappling/submission and the "puncher's chance" that some no-name is going to ring their bell out of nowhere. Pro wrestlers can technically be called atheletes, true, but most pro wrestlers who actually have an MMA background (i.e. Kazushi Sakuraba, Ken Shamrock) can adapt to pro wrestling without even the slightest bit of effort, while in most cases, pro wrestlers-turned-MMA-fighters (i.e. Dos Caras Jr.) end up getting crushed seconds into their first real MMA bout (i.e. Cro Cop kicking the aforementioned Dos Caras Jr. upside the head so hard he split his scalp open even though it was hidden beneath a wrestling mask.) Are pro wrestlers atheletes? Sure, but are they even close to being comparable to a mixed martial artist? Fuck no. Just as a note: Bob Sapp was the Japanese K-1 Grand Prix champion in 2005, by the way, so although he's not exactly the most graceful or measured MMA fighter, he sure as hell gets the job done. Also, he beat Ernesto Hoost, who beat Cro Cop THREE times. It's not the fighters' history, it's all in the fight at hand, so you never know.[/QUOTE] Try reading my entire post, and you'll see that you just reiterated my point. [/QUOTE]
