No Holds Barred: Daniel Cormier, from Olympic Wrestling to MMA

Friday, 28 August 2009

On this edition of No Holds Barred, host Eddie Goldman speaks with
U.S. Olympic freestyle wrestler Daniel Cormier (http://twitter.com/
Cormier2009/), who has recently begun training to become a mixed
martial arts fighter.

As Daniel is also a big boxing fan, our discussion seamlessly went
from one combat sport to another, including boxing, wrestling, and
mixed martial arts. He explained that he still has a lot to learn
before fighting professionally, but that we also may see him back on
the wrestling mat this fall. We also discussed many topics and
personalities in the various combat sports, so this all-encompassing
interview with such a gifted and articulate athlete is a must for all
aficionados of the combat sports.
