Daniel Puder Talks About Real Feud With Kurt Angle
By Mike MacLeod • Jan 23rd, 2008 • Category: NewsProfessional wrestler and mixed martial artist, Daniel Puder talked with MMA on Tap recently. In the interview, Puder talks about his ongoing beef with Kurt Angle and how it all started.
This whole thing goes all the way back to when we were both in the WWE. He was in the ring challenging us Tough Enough guys to get in the ring with him during this segment. So one of the other contestants, Chris Nawrocki, he gets in there with Kurt and Kurt ends up breaking three of his ribs right away.
So then he asks anyone else if they want to step in the ring and I raise my hand. We get in there and almost a minute later I have him in a keylock, embarrassing him in front of the entire world. He was pretty pissed about it afterwards, you could tell right after it happened, and is still pissed to this day. I know that he wants to fight me and I’d love to do it so he knows where to find me.
He’s crazy. He’s tough as hell but he’s crazy. He claims that he could beat guys like Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz in seconds. I had him in a keylock in under a minute and I wasn’t even trying. Part of me thinks that he’s nothing but talk. He’s always talks about wanting to get into MMA but he’s yet to do it. If he does finally man up, we can fight. I’ll even bet my entire purse that I can beat him. If he beats me, I’ll give him every cent.
Puder has an undefeated MMA record of 6-0. If he continues his winning ways, could we see him face Angle in an unscripted fight?
