And Kurt is a GREAT wrestler, so take that for what you will.)

But what if you put him in the ring with Randy Couture, a guy who in all honestly is an incredible wrestler himself but whom is already EXTREMELY well versed in strikes and ground and pound. Or Chuck Liddell, a knockout master with an incredible sprawl defense to a shoot. Same with Cro Crop, or Sivlia or Sakuraba . Too good.
I'm talking Kurt Angle, in six months. He will not be that evolved to step in the ring with the top fighters. As good of a wrestler as he WAS. Trust me, with his neck in the condition it is, Kurt probably isn't half the wrestler he used to be either.
