Kurt Angle VS. Royce Gracie

there both in there prime, 3 rounds ufc rules

 Current UFC rules or UFC rules "in their prime"???

 i think this is why the what if forum was created.

 You also got they're wrong, but hey who really cares about that shit?

Hob -  Current UFC rules or UFC rules "in<b> their</b> prime"???

current ufc rules, i ment both fighters are in there prime

gi or no gi?

gi = Royce

sorry, didn't see that post above...

I would still go with Royce, he's beaten wrestlers before...
not sure what angle's sub defence is

This is an odd question. Cuz Royce in his prime did not know the "formula" ie that a fighter should be adequate in standup, ground game etc. In royce's prime it was "style v style". Anyway if they were bot 25 today I'll go with angle. He is 1 of the greatest amateur wrestlers of all time and could control Royce to a decision. Phone Post

Angle via control and headbutt. Phone Post

some very interesting opinions

 Current UFC rules with both in their prime I got Gracie.



Vale Tudo rules with both in their prime I got Angle. I can see him using headbutts and dropping knees on Gracie's head and such.

ttt this is getting good, i want some more opinions

Kurt, not even close

oh the ironing

Kurt Angle is a much better wrestler than Matt Hughes and Bigger. He would take Royce down at will. Slam him several times. repeat for a decision victory.

If they both go back in time to their prime knowing what people know now, then Kurt easy. Going back in time to UFC 1 then Royce.

If Daniel Puder can submit Angle I would like to think Royce can too.


I don't get 'Angle in his prime'

Do you mean the exact Kurt Angle that participated in the Olympics.

Because if so, Royce by any submission he wants because Angle would be like any other wrestler that had never trained submissions before.

Or is that an imaginary Angle that trains at Extreme Couture for a year before the fight?

If so, can we make it an imaginary Royce that learns wrestling as well ?

Read it again from the beginning, smart guy.

 

i think kurt angle, being the bigger man and the better wrestler. i think he could easily grind out a decision.
