Another “Terrific” article from friend and Sportswriter James Ryan. Dan Gable was and still is a true warrior just like George St-Pierreis is now in my opinion today. Gable like the Spartan Warriors had the right MINDSET always of leaving every ounce of fiber in your body on the Mat,Ring,Cage and in the Spartan Warrior…

Ya that's kinda exactly how I was thinking. I had asked Robert if he wanted to compare their wrestling or MMA, and he said MMA, but any master of one singular discipline would still have an enormously difficult time in MMA I think.

That's why MMA is so awesome!!!

Thanks Darren.

I don't know how much info we have on Gable's striking and submission prowess.

Since we know that GSP is excellent at both, and twice Gable's size, gotta go with gsp.
