Kurt Angle turned down a reported seven figure deal from Bodog, which would have included multiple fights, but Angle said he only wanted to do one or two fights total - the first, a likely tune-up match, followed by a fight against either Brock Lesnar or Daniel Puder.
In an interview, Angle said he personally called Lesnar trying to put together the match for Bodog. Angle also said that he didn't feel UFC's Dana White respected his gold medal, and claimed that his trainer in Pittsburgh had developed secret techniques that Tito and Chuck don't know that he'd used to beat them if he were ever to face them. |

| This does not sound like it's legit. |

Doesn't Angle have a very serious neck injury that would preclude him from actual contact sports such as MMA?
Not too mention that's a ton of money for a wrestler with no other training. |

| Freak show upstart promotions will ultimately just play into Zuffa's hand. Kurt Angle vs Brock Lesnar is a WWE match with real contact. |

Angle was fine running his mouth about wanting to fight in MMA as long as he thought it would never happen , then when Dana put up the money Angle shut up instead of put up.
Theres no money for UFC in Angles plan. Noone in UFC cares about Lesnar. They all just see him as a WWE guy. And Puder hasnt been anywhere long enough for anyone to even know who he is let alone give a shit about him. |
