How did Trigg do?

Wrestling !!!! Dominating man.....still the best base for MMA
The whole UFC could be filled with wrestlers if they werent worried about having every style represented....
Z guard - no stand ups, no gloves, no time limits
like old school and most wrestlers lose.
Why would no standups be bad for wrestlers?
Why would no gloves be bad for wrestlers?
wrestlers would still have their place with old school rules, even no time limits. jiujitsu practitioners would return to the top once more though, in greater numbers. we'd see less sprawl and brawl, and c-level kickboxing though.
headbutts + wrestling + no standups + knees on ground - gloves = ?
GSP and Fitch are wrestlers?

GSP didnt start with wrestling. Fedor didnt start wrestling, BJ Penn started w BJJ, Anderson Silva muay thai, i can keep going
mestregruber - GSP and Fitch are wrestlers?
um, i believe Fitch was at Purdue. GSP, while not originally a wrestler has done atremendous amount of wrestling training and trained with the Canadia nat team.
One could say the same thing for GSP's BJJ, or even his Karate. Saying he is a wrestler because he trains wrestling is disingenuous. GSP didn't even have a wrestling background before he started training for MMA. Fitch, on the other hand, has a wrestling background, but he wouldn't be the fighter he is without the jiu-jitsu background.
