Now, I think he might have an advantage in the sense that he can't be submitted by arm/legbars. On the other hand, he is going to have a serious disadvantage stopping the neck chokes, blocking the strikes, and performing his own strikes and submissions. I hope he comes to his senses before he gets killed. The sport of wrestling (and the protections it grants) are quite different from MMA.
