plus its just essential lol. you dont always go straight into a submission.. you gotta work for it.. knowing how to wrestle is imperative to ground fighting
I mean more wrestling throws, not really wrestling grapple. The typical wrestler is big, gets you down and ground and pounds a bit. His takedown is usually a slam, which are quite messy takedowns, especially against a submission fighter. I imagine the actual slam wrestler, like Brock for prime example, whill eventually be surpassed in skill. More judo and leg trip takedowns will take over slams for more controlled takedowns, and submission fighters will have evolved beyond letting themself stay grounded and bullied by wrestlers. Brock is a particularly bad MMA wrestler (despite previous accolades), but even the good ones will eventually have to specialize beyond their size and strength because technique will take ovr
