brock lesnar is a joke are you kiddin me if the wwe would actually test for steroids the man wouldnt even be an athlete anymore. he was tired in the second round and caught randy.....a rematch would show the true champ hats off to randy, brock go back to the wwe!!!!!! we dont want you here. i think nogiera will break off both of brocks arms, and beat brock with them. LATER!!!!
I don't get the steroid comments man. I mean, he was on them when doing WWE, but so was everybody else. Everybody seems to be so caught up on his short WWE career, failing to realize that he was an accomplished wrestler long before that. Lesnar was a two-time NJCAA All-American, two-time NCAA All-American, two-time Big Ten Conference Champion, and the 2000 NCAA heavyweight champion with a record of 106-5 overall in four years of college. He's working hard now to become a meaningful athlete. Football, didn't work out, and now he found something he enjoys and can be good at. Let him do his thing man.
My thoughts on the whole event were superb. Every fight was fantastic, not one dull encounter. There were also some great knockouts, and brilliant submissions. The undercard was also awesome i was really pleased with it.
Some other thoughts
1. How gassed did Lesnar look? He is still very green and beatable. Beast of a guy and props to Randy for trying to work his gameplan.
2. How awesome did Napao look? Always liked this guy he looks in better shape physically, he is a beast combine with his Jitz skills and penchant for laying guys out, he is a potential champion for sure.
I have a question! I read a post earlier, that really made me think! I know that a lot of people were really pissed off, but I am just curious.
This guy posted earlier, that he felt "The Natural" threw the fight last night.
His theory was that Randy and Dana White reached a resolution to their earlier dispute. (Randy C was trying to leave the UFC to go to WEC or some other league)(Dana W was using "His Contract" to keep the current title holder in UFC). This guy goes on to mention that Randy and Dana agreed to bring Randy back to fight Lesner. In exchange for his throwing the fight, Couture would be released from his contract and allowed to go where ever.
I have never really thought of it, but do you think this could be possible?
I have been a fan of UFC prior to Dana White and would hate to see the "UFC" suffer for trying to sell itself.
I know a lot of people who have questioned others to
GSP v Serra 2
Bisping v Hamill
Hughes v GSP 2
I love the UFC but there is some evidence toward the truth of this. What do you think?
Being a doctor, i'd diagnose u with 'spending way too MUCH TIME IN CONSPIRACY THEORY websites'
yeah how dare he say fedor would beat brock. that's such a diss, i mean to suggest that brock would lose to to the #1 HW in the world, how awful, randy should be crucified, brock with his 4 MMA fights deserves to be the favorite to beat ANYONE ANY TIME!
yeah but don't you see the irony in it.. randy said fedor would beat brock, however on the other hand RANDY BELIEVES HE CAN BEAT FEDOR!!! and he just got ko'd by brock
Repped. I guess Randy had all of us fooled. He was gracious, composed, and said all the right things prior to the fight. But when the chips are down and things don't go his way, he turns bitter and calls his formerly worthy opponent "lucky."
Right now, I would just like to chalk it up to a true warrior's pride.
Conversely, Brock just tooled every hater on this board. Despite the litany of injuries he suffered under WWE, he was thoroughly schooled on how to play the heel, tell a story, and generally get the crowd so riled up, EVERYBODY had to see the fight. The man is not only a fighting machine, but a publicity generating machine as well. He talked tremendous trash to sell the fight, then graciously and objectively analyzed the fight afterwards.
His future looks very bright, in as well as out of the octagon.

If anyone needed more proof there was no fix, lol, Randy is pissed about this loss. I can't remmember the last time I saw him lose his composure like that. The Fedor comment is a little ironic too, all things considered.
On the flip side, with the negativity and presure off of him, Lesnar sounds like a class act. I've never been able to fault him for being honest either.
lol i agree brock was on roids in the wwe.. who cares, good for him, at lease he ain't on it now.. thats the IMPORTANT POINT..
and so what if he was on roids in the wwe... don't forget sean sherk, vitor belfort, sylvia (former 2time ufc champ), josh barnett (former ufc champ), stephan bonnar, hermes franca, chris leben and the list goes on were all caught on ROIDS!!!!
I agree that Fedor is the favorite if it is Lesnar's 5th, 6th, or even 7th fight. His 8th? I give Lesnar the (slight) edge. The pick doesn't bother me, it's the overall tenor of Randy's comments: bitter, dismissive, and generally out of character.

MMA math doesn't work. You can go around in circles looking at fighter's records, just cause guy A beat guy B and and guy A can beat guy C doesn't mean guy B can beat guy C. Styles make fights. FWIW I think Couture would have a better chance with Fedor than with Brock because of the styles and physical aspects- but I also think Brock would lose to Fedor regardless.
