Star wrestler Jordan Burroughs unlikely to try MMA: 'I just don't want to get punched in the face'
The freestyle wrestler many consider to be the best ever produced by the U.S. has to admit there are times when a career in mixed martial arts seems mighty appealing.

Like when Conor McGregor showed up on “Fight Island” for UFC 257.

“I follow Conor McGregor on Instagram,” Jordan Burroughs said on a recent edition of “The Jim Rome Show.” “I see him pull up with a new Rolex and a Bentley, driving a Lamborghini to practice, riding a yacht to Abu Dhabi to ‘Fight Island,’ I’m like, ‘Damn I should have followed.'”

And besides, there is certainly a template for the jump from the mats to the cage, as sometimes it seems like the most reliable pipeline to UFC gold.

“It’s an interesting dynamic, because I think I could really translate well,” Burroughs said. “Most of the champions in MMA are former wrestlers – Kamaru Usman, Henry Cejudo, Jon Jones, Daniel Cormier. All these guys were great wrestlers. I was teammates and trained alongside some of those guys, so I was like if they can do it I can do it.”-------

Kyle Dake: MMA career possible after Olympics

Four-time NCAA wrestling champ and two-time world titlewinner Kyle Dake is preparing to wrestle freestyle at the 2020 Summer Olympics ... but he's apparently entertaining the idea of competing in mixed martial arts beyond the Tokyo Games.

The former Cornell University wrestler posted a brief video on Instagram, hitting pads with a trainer, with this caption: "Slowly getting the hang of using my hands. Still sloppy but I'm realizing that striking and wrestling are more similar than I thought. After #tokyo2020 we will see what happens."-----
