And I am only using this example to explain that to state a certainty while speculating results of a combat sport is just as retarded as a person can be.

I mean, look at how many MMA upsets there have been in the last 2-3 years. Guys who were written off due to inexperience, or not even being in the same league as their opponents..... Sometimes they pull it off.
So your compairing a guy who only trains in wrestling pulling upsets compaired to an MMA fighter who wants to give wrestling a try... your right Im the stupid one here.

Go back to my post about wrestling vs BJJ.... in MMA theres that many more ways to end a fight. How many of those upsets have come from KOs or caught in submission. Theres a difference between beating a guy in a time period vs catching them in a fight ending move. Now you might say "what about decision upsets"... well theres the question on whether the judges know what theyre doing, but also if someone gets dominated for 15-25 minutes, is that an upset?
