I watched them both wrestle in college.
To me Kos is better. Probobly because he is just a better athlete altogether.
Kos would have better credentials if it were not for a neck injury he had in college.
They are both great though.

Hendricks by a mile when it comes to pure wrestling. He has the best resume of any wrestler in MMA. He would own GSP in a pure wrestling match. However, I would love to see them tangle in the octagon.

Daniel Cormier will save MMA from Jon Jones (8/25/12).
Been saying it for a year, let's make it official - Chris Weidman will FINISH Anderson Silva (6/2/13).

Best resume of any wrestler is a stretch especially with guys like Lindland, Cormier, and King Mo who was an incredible freestyle wrestler competing in MMA.

This, except Askren had an equally impressive college career.

Explosive doubles aren't a prerequisite for success in folkstyle wrestling. In fact, the majority of national champions really don't have explosive power takedowns, relatively speaking.
