you've been misled, i'm not implying mma maths cos for me that goes out the window and yes does not work just think chuck, wand and jardine

anyway what i was saying is thatits funny how randy said fedor can beat brock but i'm laughing how all along randy believes he can beat fedor

with a performance like he did against brock, fedor would demolish him... point is randy should just keep quiet on the fedor matter cos brock just exposed him....

i'm a huge randy couture fan but he didn;t look like the same randy that beat GG... against brock he was lighter and just looked weaker than his former self

i hate to use his age but maybe its the long layoff.. however he had a long layoff when he fought sylvia so that might not be the case..

who knows.. he just didn;t look as strong as he was before

I thought Randy looked fine. He just got caught and finished.

Randy was probably going for endurance over strength. He probably wanted to wear Brock out. Besides its not like having 10lbs more of muscle would make the strength difference that much different.

[wolfbot]

Exactly. And he didn't get caught with one fluke punch. He ate some nasty punches first round when Lesnar was on top. He also got caught with well leveraged knee strikes in the clinch. Then he was rocked with a big right elbow, before being finished.

And I don't think Randy looked good, he looked terrific. Great dirty boxing and striking out of the clinch. The problem was, as Lesnar stated post-fight and as the finish of the fight made obvious, Brock's hands were much, much heavier. Everyone knew that coming in.

Bottom line, if I punch any of you at the back of the head near the spine you will go down. Brock may not have intended for the strike to be back of the head but Randy was ducked down and Brock struck with an over hand right down on Randy's neck. That shot should have made the match a no contest, not a victory. As it was, this was just a cheap way for the UFC to get their lame belt back from a guy they have treated like crap for years.

As far as Brock -- he is big and strong and the poster boy for a Super Heavyweight division in the UFC. He is not super skilled though he does have some decent hands and good hips. He wins by being bigger, not better and for that reason I have no interest in seeing, or paying for any more of his fights.

Now BJ Penn, Forrest, Faber...those guys are fun to watch. This fight was just a cheep shot by Dana White who seems bent on making the UFC the WWF. I don't care about rivalries or cooked up drama...I care about skill and good fights. The Randy/Brock fight was the only fight at 91 that wasn't interesting. In fact, the fans got it right when they booed Brock...he isn't interesting, just a sideshow freak.

Can't wait until the guy goes away or get's toasted by a decent fighter. In the mean time I look forward to and will buy the PPV for a Randy/Fedor fight.

Actually, Couture was the one who came off looking like a jackass during his little feud with Dana. I love me some Randy, but to say he was treated like crap for many years is foolish. The guy was given a title shot after he had loss to Liddell at LHW.

that was solely due to a lack of established competiton at HW in the UFC. Cmon man, don't act like there was a line of serious contenders when Randy came back, he got the shot because there was no one else who reasonably deserved it. Randy maybe have been coming out of LWH at the time but he had a past history of wins at HW.

Brock is a good fighter but the things hes said about randy makes him a dick in my book. If it wasnt for guys like randy couture Lesnar wouldnt be fighting in front of 19,000 people and making the money he is today.
