When anyone from the MMA love covenant gets a chance, go to youtube and check out some of Mark Schultz's fights...I don't think there was ever a wrestler who should have naturally transitioned into the sport of MMA. He had one dominating performance againest Gary Goodridge, who was at the top of his game at the time, and then disappeared.

The following sherdog article tells his story...this is a very good read.

You can read a 40 page thread on themat.com under the "college" section where Mark answers questions. If you don't feel like reading 40 pages here's his story of late...he's divorced, out of work, has been having major back/spine surgery, is looking for a coaching job, got turned down by USA wrestling for a couple of coaching positions, he's a mormon, and he hates the family court system. I know there's more I'm forgetting.

He talks about some MMA stuff in the thread.

Also, Mark will be the guest speaker at the Clash coaches banquet this year.

Wow, I just read the article on Mark Schultz. Talk about a "wrestler's heart". I never realized what a tough long strange road he's been on.

As bparlin mentioned, Mark will be in Rochester on January 1st to speak at the Clash coaches' banquet. The banquet is free for coaches at the Clash. There are a few extra seats for fans at $25 each. PM me if you're interested.
