Re: lesner is a scary scary man.

Brock is just too big and strong for Randy. Could be Randy is too old and gave up too much weight too. At least 45 pounds and 14 years in age. However, Randy's been out for awhile and I'm sure he'll be back.

I see some good matchups at HW for Brock. Fights against Nog, Gonzaga or Fedor would be good. And a re-match against Mir would be good too. Even a re-match with Couture could happen down the line if Randy can get back to what he was.

Lesner is garbage, makes MMA more like WWE, if Mir or Nogiera can't get him Gonzaga will take him, talk to Mir and Gonzaga at the fight tonight, they can't wait to get at him.

Re: lesner is a scary scary man.

supposed to take on the winner of Nogueira and Mir in their bout next month. Could see a few good title defenses happening though.

Love him or hate him, this guy was dubbed the "Next Big Thing" in the WWE. Looks like it may still parlay over.

Re: lesner is a scary scary man.

i really happy to see frank mir getting back into it. that bike accident really took it out of him, enarly costing him his career. he is a blood and guts fighter, nasty strong wresstler, and can throw down when needed. if he wins, the fight between him and brock has some real potential as he is a phenomenal jujitsu guy which will be a perfect counter balance to lesners roman grecco.

Dude Fedor is absolutely untouchable. I can't see anyone beating him. And Randy kicked Sylvia's ass pretty bad although he's not as physical as Brock. I think maybe rust and Randy's age caught up to him. Still a legend.

Respect for Lesnar, I've never seen a guy his size move that fast. Impressive dude.

Re: lesner is a scary scary man.

Apparently Lesnar was beat once back in 99 against current New England Patriot Stephen Neal.

Re: lesner is a scary scary man.

Love him or hate him, Brock Lesnar is the real deal.

The guy is built like a brick shithouse and moves like lightning. He's been training in MMA for a little over two years and is already the HW champ. The scary thing is he's only going to get better.

His wrestling is awsome and also has some real punching power. He dropped Mir and imo, would've pounded him out, were it not for ref Mazzgatti stopping/deducting a point from Brock, for punching Mir in the back of the head. He sent Herring doing a backflip after a huge right and also dropped Randy like a sack.

Right now, there is no UFC HW fighter that would be a good matchup for Lesnar. Gonzaga was made to look pretty average against Randy and was pounded out by Verdum. Nogueira was very lucky against Herring and was struggling against Sylvia until the fight hit the ground.

Fedor is the only man that is good enough to take him on atm. He's awsome on his feet and amazing on the ground. His recent demolition of Tim Sylvia is proof of this.

Mir killed Norguiera. He really impressed me with that fight.

Going to be a good fight between him and Lesner.
