[@boxingmma.]

[@FightswithFriends]

Thank you brother, I appreciate it!

[@AffectionateEucalyptusTr-it8uh]

My 2 favorite wrestlers the shultz Brothers god bless them ❤😊

[@michaelgpartridge2384]

Fantastic interview! Man, I love Mark. What a class act!

[@FightswithFriends]

Yes he is, definitely one of my favorite interviews!

[@joecalio6489]

I met Mark and Dave at a state freestyle wrestling tournament in california.. Dave was my favorite wrestler. I cried when he got shot.. their were so many rumors going around the wrestling community about Dupont. But the United States wrestlers were getting jealous that the communist wrestlers were basically professional athletes.. Dupont offered what seemed like the only option other than wrestling freestyle for the military.. Thank God for mma.. at least some wrestlers can now get money and respect.. thanks to Mark schultz, Kevin Jackson, Mark Coleman, Kevin Randleman, etc..

You do not want to get into a grappling contest with this man.

[@FightswithFriends]

Absolutely not!

[@WyattMatheson]

Obviously I've watched a fair few of your interviews, and Mike, this is unquestionably the best. Way to go!

[@FightswithFriends]

Thank you Wyatt!

Great conversation!

[@FightswithFriends]

Thank you Josh!

[@William.H.Bonney]

Rickson still to this day says Mark is the toughest guy he ever grappled. Respect to both legends👊

[@FightswithFriends]

Wow I didn’t know that

[@William.H.Bonney]

Yeah just recently Rickson said that on his YT channel. Here’s the link kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2eydnSIiZKqfrs

[@FightswithFriends]

Awesome, thanks!

[@William.H.Bonney]

@@FightswithFriends no problem 🤙

@@FightswithFriends what’s the time stamp when he talks about Rickson

[@joepollock7253]

I'm showing up late to the video, did Coach Alan Albright's son make it through Covid ? I googled it and no info ....

[@aplacetobewithmythoughts7428]

I'd be interested to know how the fight would have gone if strikes we're allowed. In any regard Mark Schultz is so incredible. His Olympic Gold medalist wrestling combined with him learning jiu jitsu - he would have been a long reigning UFC champion and UFC hall of famer if he decided to. Absolute legend and class act.

[@paleo704]

What do you mean “if strikes were allowed”? Have you not seen the fight ?

[@Ajc99130]

Mike that’s awesome I got to wrestle with Dave when I was in 8th grade

[@FightswithFriends]

Oh that’s awesome!

Maybe I should make shirts with all of my mispronounced words and sayings. Could be an additional income stream

[@ballisticcranberrypeat7777]

@@FightswithFriends You definitely should! And I hope you didn’t think I was making fun of you, that was just an especially funny one…. Mark didn’t even notice it, and as long as you’re getting your point across, who cares how you pronounce things

[@buckminsterfullerene2149]

Man, the fact rogan hasn't had Mr. Shultz on his podcast is suspect. Glad I stopped listening to him right before he "blew up" on spotify

[@FightswithFriends]

I still listen to Rogan sometimes but I’m really thankful Mark was willing to do this interview. I learned a lot that I only thought I knew about

[@buckminsterfullerene2149]

@@FightswithFriends I learned a few things also. Thank you for the video and as a new subscriber to your channel, I look forward to watching more content you share. Also, I go back to rogan on myspace. For years my friends would look at me cock-eyed when I told them about his podcast lol

[@FightswithFriends]

Glad to have you as a subscriber. My Space, definitely a blast from the past!

@@FightswithFriends Yesterdays JRE Podcast with Bisping is really good

[@FightswithFriends]

Thanks I’ll check it out!

[@ThaSilentOne420]

Props for lasting 20mins with Rickson most dont make it 2 mins

[@unkownboi67is_unavailable62]

@Jose Vivas you never know that maybe if strikes where also in Rickson woukd wait for him tos trike so he is iff balance and then get a better position.

[@Rastamon1]

A 2 guest show on Rogan would be better. Maybe Mark Schultz and Rickson Gracie. Push for a Masters Jujitsu Match.. ok just kidding about that last part lol But seriously who would make a good co guest? I'll pass on Tim Dillon :-D

[@Brimst0ne_XB]

Thanks for the interview, Mark Schultz and Seattle Mike. Praying for Marks friend to win that fight with Covid. 🙏

[@FightswithFriends]

Thank you Greg.!

[@maxb5957]

Max was here

[@heveyweightheveyweight5399]

Jujitsu doesnt mean shit against a world class wrestler able to use strikes
