gsp became the best wrestler in his division.
what does that say about amateur wrestling?
in which anyone whose ever competed at a hs level is considered mma material
are u crazy? before entering UFC GSP was already aquainted with several forms of grappling.
hell Jackson's gym when it first started was strictly a grappling joint untill winklejohn and that other guy joined.
No wait even more, GSP was already twinning many martial art torniments like karate before his MMA debute, and was well-versed in BJJ before signing with the UFC, and recieved his black belt well into his career under a fucking Gracie.
Nobody was more prevaliged than GSP in terms of training: Renzo, Roach, Jackson, Zahabi, ..etc
And he was always an athlete all his life, and he had talent.
This is not a question of amateur wrestling, CM Punk has no background competing or formal training in any sport (or even traditional martial art) ever, from his days as a fetus in his mom's vagina till the recent year as he randomly joined a great gym and signed by the top company in the sport. ridiculous!
I know very little about his training background, do you know what belt he has attained and is he has ever competed in BJJ ?, just curious.
Do not buy the BS, he wears a white belt and apears on teh gracie break down youtube channel.
