Brock Lesnar says pro-wrestlers do not have what it take to compete in UFC

Quote:
In a recent interview with the UK Sun, Brock Lesnar stated that TNA star Kurt Angle and former WWE star Bobby Lashley do not what it takes to compete in the UFC. Lesnar said, "I am here to represent amateur wrestling and not professional wrestling. Are there other pro wrestlers who can come into UFC like me? Absolutely not. They just don't have the background that I do. Even top UFC fighters wish they had more wrestling experience in their background."

Heh. So the only pro-wrestler to ever have a chance to make it into the UFC must be Brock, right?

When Kurt opened his mouth and bad mouthed the WWE awhile back I lost some respect for him. Now that Brock did this, I have lost a little respect for him, too.

It's true that most pro-wrestlers probably wouldn't make it if they tried to do UFC. But I can't say about those two specifically. Saying nobody else could might be him being full of himself, or it might be an honest analysis. I don't know.

uh... Kurt Angle has more amateur wrestling experience than Lesnar... He'd make a good mix martial artist if he used a very good Greco-Roman base, which he has.

Kurt Angle in his prime would be a good UFC or MMA fighter, he won a gold medal in the Olympics in Wrestling. Some people say the only thing that would hurt him is his punching, but I should he would of done just fine. I also think Chris Jericho could make a good UFC fighter.

I think Lashley could make it in the UFC. Saying that a professional wrestler couldn't make it in the UFC because they just wrestle is like saying someone who only street fights couldn't make it..oh yeah, Kimbo..

Kimbo's not in the UFC.. he doesnt got skills to make it in the UFC. He is in EliteXC, it's just a minor promotion, Kimbo would get destroyed in the UFC. no question anyone can brawl and cage fight.. but the UFC is very very hard to make it in, not just anyone can make it in. Someone with experience, training, and talent would make it hands down. Angle in his prime

Makes me wonder if Brock will ever shake his WWE image. Is he going to constantly be asked questions about WWE and is he going to respond negatively every time? Also, didn't Shamrock leave WWF to go to to a UFC type of dealy?

It's both MMA. There's competitors in both that could take on the others, it's just to bad EliteXC is closed.

the CFL and the NFL are both football.. there;s competition in both, but the NFL's competition is much better. Same goes for the UFC and EliteXC. There is a interest for MMA across the world right? Ultimate Fighting Championship is the highest ranked MMA promotion in the world, if people can't make it in the UFC or are not good enoguh, chances are they'll enroll in minor promotions.

He was in the UFC, after the UFC he joined the WWE, then he retired from WWE and went back into MMA later in his career.

Lesnar is a tool, so this doesnt shock me in the slightest way. What the hell does he know? He acts like he's been in MMA for 10 years.
