when is cael going to start fighting in the UFC
He's on top of the world right now. No reason for him to participate in mma. But I bet in about 5 years when he itches to compete still and the UFC is bigger than ever, we might see him.
umm never
Hopefully never. The man is a wrestler, not a fighter as far as I've ever heard. No need to lower himself and subject his legacy to what the UFC currently is.
no losses in NCAA competition!!! Even Gable lost once.
He will probaly make more money whatever he is doing than the bush league they call UFC
just like koscheck
Yeah god forbid sincityhustler. Guys like Randy Couture, Matt Hughes, Matt Lindland lowered themselves and subjected their legacy to what the UFC currently is.
They would all have been much richer and have more notoriety if they would have just stayed away from the terrible UFC.
Those guys do not have the legacy Cael does in wrestling. Cael will be set for life in wrestling. Competing much less losing in the UFC does not sit well with the Wrestling world.
Yeah, the used car business had Couture and Lindland rolling in the dough.
Cael has actually retired from wrestling and is now looking forward to coaching!
good call.....last..mm.. call.
Unfortunately most of the mainstream sports world sees MMA as a lower tier sport.
AZ
Randy while great did not leave the legacy Cael has. He can now coach anywhere for a lucrative career may bbe more than he could ever coach. Add in all of the seminars, camps and appearances and he will do much better than Lindland or Randy ever did.
cael is so top notch it's not even funny... randy, matt, kerr, coleman, randleman, hendo, etc... when a match with them is over you were beat up, bloody, and put through hell... when your done with cael you just don't know what happened... fact is you lost, however you need to review a tape cuz it was all so fluid and happened so fast. he's not a mma fighter, he is just one of the best ever who will end up coaching for the rest of his days. UFC has nothing for him... then again, ive seen crazier things...
WTF are you talking about rsj?
No shit Cael is considered a better wrestler than Randy, Dan, etc. That doesn't mean he wouldn't WANT to compete in mma. Kevin Jackson & Rulon were Olympic champs too. Did that stop them from fighting in mma?
if he wanted to compete in mma, he would be doing it. its obvious he doesnt
There is absolutely nothing to indicate that Cael is even remotely interested in fighting for a living. Just as there are a handful of olympic wrestlers who have crossed over into mma, there are thousands that have not. There is no indication that he would be interested given all of the opportunitues that he currently enjoys and absence of any sign that he is even aware of the existance of mixed martial arts.
6 figures and shit sounds about right.
Cael is already coaching. He is an assistant coach at Iowa State under Bobby Douglas.
