    I honestly think one day, UFC will get the athletes in it that they can hang with any grappler, kickboxer, and even boxer in each sport respectively, but it won't be for awhile, until UFC really gets a strong amateur program where kids can hone their skills from a young age, If a kid was 6 years old and started learning Mauy Thai, boxing, and grappling like Mayweather and RJJ learned boxing, they would and will be unbelievable, I think the day for that is coming in the next generation.

    They do have some of that. Wrestling programs start at a young age and they do it all the way through college and up into olympics and pro. I think the athletes are there, it's just segregated to being a wrestling background and that is why wrestling has been the dominate style in MMA.

    Its purely wrestling, it isn't quite as dominant anymore... guys from Brazil with a combination of Karate or Mauy Thai and BJJ are taking over.

    Wrestling guys like Matt Hughes, have been too one dimensional lately. Kids will be taught in BJJ, boxing, Mauy Thai as more schools open, and better athletes seem to be gravitating towards MMA opposed to boxing. I am not talking about wrestling athletes, they are hardly the cream of the crop, but guys from Football.

    So are you predicting that MMA has the glitz to lure kids from football, that boxing hasn't had and has been complaining about?

    Always the big argument about the american heavyweights is that they are playing linebacker.... You think MMA can steal them?
