How would Kurt Angle do in Mixed Martial Arts?

Mixed Martial Arts
fastfreedombailbonds asked:


He seems to have a very real, intense way about him. We all know that he is a world class grappler also. I heard Brock Lesner was an all american at U of Minn. But when he came to WWE he trained some with Angle and Angle threw him around like a rag doll….

Is Starting a Career in Mixed Martial Arts, The right Choice ?

Mixed Martial Arts
Who cares ? asked:


I want to start a career in MMA ( MIXED MARTIAL ARTS )

I am taking a break from college, to work & train MMA.
I work at home, so i make my own schedule,
So that gives me some freedom, to work out, and train my MMA.
I also have to start, working more, so i can make enough money, to pay my bills, and my gym membership costs.

Do you think i am making a mistake,
leaving college, to pursue a Career in Mixed Martial Arts.
Its something i like doing, and i feel like i can have alot of fun, and maybe someday making a living, out of doing something i like/love.
Even if i don’t make a career out of this, ( which will take anywhere from 1 year, to 3 years to become a pro Fighter )

Just like college, ( where it will take you 2 – 4 years to get a degree in something )
Bottom line from this is i will be in great shape, physically & mentally,
It will improve my life, & I am sure, this will make me feel even better about myself. ( Boost of self confidence & self esteem )
Learn self defense, and even know how to fight better.

How should i make my schedule, work, & training schedule
I am going to start working full time, 20 – 30 hours a week.
Just like college, you have expenses. books, etc, etc.
MMA gyms are also kind of expensive,
( Most of them cost around 100 – 150 $, a month )

I am sure, i can always come back to college, and continue my education, ( maybe get a fast degree in a certain career field, within 12-18 months ) If i happen to change my mind,
( even though i don’t know what i really want to major in )

I don’t really know what i want to do with my life,
that’s why i am giving MMA a try.

I want to hear other peoples Opinion about this, so i can see where i stand, What do you think ???

Idea for a strong mixed martial art?

Mixed Martial Arts
Scott L asked:


I think a good mixture would be Taekwondo,Boxing and Jiu-jitsu because each style would train the fighter to have a good grip over every part of his body.
Taekwondo=powerful kicks
Boxing=Powerful punchs
Jiu-Jitsu=Strong take downs.
That is just what I think depending on the information I know but what do you think would be the best mixed martial art or do you agree with mine.
The limit is 3 martial arts.

Can someone help me find some good mixed Martial arts videos? My best friend is a big fan and he is stationed in Iraq.His birthday’s coming up and he would just die if he got some.I’m not familiar with that stuff.I think maybe even some amateur(but good quality) stuff would work.He’s a bit of an enthusiast and would probably be mad if I sent him something like “Never back down” LOL Thanks for your help!!!
