MMA Legend Vitor Belfort Calls Out Chris Jericho For Cross-Promotional Match “With myself being with ONE, and on the same network, I think it’s time for [AEW CEO] Tony Khan to give me Jericho, and I can whip Jericho’s butt. We can really make that fight happen”

I know very well that Lesnar was an accomplished wrestler in high school and college, same with Jake Hager but in terms of MMA, I don't think he started training until 2006 and won the Title 2 years later.

Maybe it depends on your definition of combat sport, Angle beat Lesnar in a shoot wrestling match in 2003 but I doubt Angle would have been as accomplished as Lesnar in MMA, regardless of the drug issues he was having at the time Lesnar started training.

Charlie Haas, Shelton Benjamin, etc all were accomplished wrestlers in high school and college but I somehow don't see anyone thinking they would have been as successful as Lesnar was in UFC.
