For a while, the number of wrestlers making the switch to MMA had been declining, but that trend seems to be shifting. Stevenson is heading to the UFC, and most recently, Andrew Alirez also made his MMA debut. Starroci, Kerkvilet, Byrd, Henson, Buchanan, AJ Ferrari, Ed Ruth, Cesar Alvan, and Ty Watters are also considering making the switch to MMA. Even among high school wrestlers, Bo Bassett and Dawson Youngblut have stated that they aim to become UFC champions. What do you think of this trend? Also, let me know if there are any other wrestlers with similar plans.
