Michael Phelps vs. Carl Edwards

Hi Guys,

Just out of curiousity, who do you think would win in a fictional wrestling/MMA match between Olympic swimmer Mikey Phelps and Nascar driver Carl Edwards ? How do you think the contest would go ? Here's some stats on these guys :

Michael is about 23 years old, 6'4" tall, weighs about 195 lbs. (his weight fluctuates between 185 - 200 lbs.). He's been a champion swimmer since his teens, won 14 Olympic gold-medals ( 8 in 2008 ), he's got powerful arms & legs, and when he was in the Olympic swimming competitions you could see him propelling himself through the water with his massive quads (thighs). He's got a long, lean, muscled torso.

Carl is about 29 years old, 6'1" tall, weighs about 185 lbs. He's been a Nascar racer for several years with quite a few wins. When he wins a race he has a trademark move where he climbs up on the side of his car, balances himself on the window, and does a backflip off of it, so he's obviously got some athletic & gymnastic ability.

Both of these guys are in real good shape & work out. They're both in the newspaper sports pages & all over the internet and television, they both seek out publicity, have sponsors, and do TV commercials. Which one do you think could take the other in a wrestling match ?

Re: Michael Phelps vs. Carl Edwards

Probably Michael Phelps, just because he is most likely in better shape than Edwards. If they each trained for 3 or so months equally, Phelps would probably take it. MMA more than wrestling, but I think he would beat him in a wrestling match, assuming it's actual wrestling.

That's only assuming if they have the same skill set and the match becomes some endurancefest. No doubt Phelps has better cardiovascular fitness though with the amount of swimming he does everyday. He is top of the world in cardiovascular fitness imo.

is a beast.

I'm going with Carl. Though I can't say way. Probably because I'm a NASCAR fan.
