Kurt Angle was interviewed this week by the UK Sun and spoke at length about what he feels is wrong with today's TNA product and can "almost guarantee" he'll be fighting in the UFC next year.
Here's what Angle said about his future in MMA:
"I’m talking to several fight companies about doing MMA by the end of next year - 2009. I’m going to cross over to the MMA world for a while but I want to end up back in TNA and back in wrestling. I’ve always wanted to do it. I’m the only Olympic gold medallist that will enter the Octagon and it feels right for me. I can almost guarantee you’re going to see me in the Octagon."
UFC president Dana White stated in an interview this summer that Angle's neck injury "scares the s*** out of me." White stated that Angle is a friend, but he doesn't seem to be taking his MMA interest seriously. That doesn't mean one of the other promotions won't bring him in, but it would be surprising to see UFC make Angle a strong offer.
