@crazycat and CIF wrestling
sorry i guess i wasn't clear. I was typing up that response quickly after a long day.
WRESTLING IS TOUGHER. I hope that makes more sense. My last sentence says a full season is "a much larger commitment" and i was claiming that the lead-up to a fight is "a little more relaxing." I am a college wrestler, a sopre at a school that is very academically challenging as well, so i am very well aware of the grind. I don't think there are too many other endeavors on this earth that can compare to the work that goes into wrestling on the NCAA level

I hope my second post is less confusing and this time i get more positive responses :)

Wrestling is the best base for mma : Cruz, Velasquez, Edgar, J Jones, GSP, Henderson, Cormier, Barnett ecc

@A. Coward, compare a 5 round fight to 40+ matches of mostly weight cut before and after a match, as CrazyCat said out of the pure desire to win, thats one of the toughest, dedicated, and most stressful things you can do on this plannet. You clearly havent experienced that level of competition first hand. I definitely agree that fights are tough as hell, but wrestling is just that much tougher.

Josh is correct about his statements. I have taken karate, Judo and wrestled since I was 10 years old. Wreslters a battle tested. Not like judo and especially not like Karate. Within the first or second week of wrestling practice kids are on the mat live wrestling. The kids that make it through are tough.

CrazyCat 2 years ago

Hey A. Coward - You are Wrong: the grind is each individual match, the grind is toughing it out through practice, the grind is keeping your weight down by sheer desire to win. MMA have a seperate type of "grind". A.Coward, I don't think you are a wrestler

Anonymous Coward 2 years ago

he's not talking about how difficult a fight vs a match is. "The grind" is a season that runs from october to march, with over the summers, wrestling 5+ matches in a day at a tournament, having to make weight every week or even more often, etc. Comparing that to a couple months of training focused on preparing for single opponent, a day before weigh in, all of that makes it a little more relaxing. I would say that a 5 round fight pushes you a lot harder than a 7 minute match, but a full college wrestling season is a much larger commitment

How can wrestling be harder? I'll tell you - when you wrestle it's 100% at all times, unless you're a wuss. In MMA you do get time to breath, which is important, remember? .Correct - wrestling is the most physically demanding sport....so you can't really compare it to a sport where you can punch and kick anf BREATH because your not in "the grind" - Josh is correct. Tuf Enuf you need to drink a protein shake wussy

Yo:CrazyCat- you are the dumbest dummy I have ever read on everything I have ever read. First of all, you spelled AND wrong at the end of your moment. Secondly, put down the bottle and call for help.

I luv Josh cuz he bad ass, but he wrong about why wrestlers dominate. We dominate cuz we "embrace the grind" - Wrestling harder that UFC?- WAIT a F-ing MINUTE - meathead forgot u get punched and kicked in the UFC. I would have had a better record if I could have just smacked 'em around a little. hahahah Josh K.= the kind of dude you don't want to fight because he's too hard headed and will never stop-unless unconcious

Anonymous Coward 2 years ago

That explains why he was a ncca champ and not a ufc champ ???
