an how deep is the global talent pool for wrestling
Every country has some form of wrestling from third world villages to high schools in states
soccer you need a ball with wrestling you just need one more person and seems so natural you see kids wrestle all the time
Many countries try developing very competitive grapplers and wrestlers
Is it the talent pool that allows wrestlers to be great mma fighters an why there seems to be more successful wrestlers in mma then muay thai fighters?
If the grappler can get the right in their area they are going to be very hard to beat. It is not complicated, the non-grappler has to keep it from moving into their wheel house, if they fail it is going to be bad news for them.
