He would definately beat Mir? From what I remember Mir or Mur as Brock likes to call him made Brock tap the first time they fought.

How could anyone with a 4-1 record be ranked #2??
I mean, Nog and Randy would definitely be quality wins and definitely place him in the top 10, probably top 5. But he still isn't deserving of #2 with such a short record, right?
He still needs to fight more guys in the division. Barnett could beat him, I believe Gonzaga could beat him, Velasquez, Sylvia, maybe Carwin....
Shouldn't a fighter be thoroughly tested before rocketing up to a #2 ranking?

As someone who severly dislikes Brock, I have to say you foregt wrestling can be used backwards.
He would likey keep it standing and maybe clinch him, and from there just KO him. He would be a fool otherwise.

It points out the problem with the HW division in MMA as a whole. Brock could easily be ranked #2-4 based on if you put Barnet and/or Arlovski in front of him.

The Brock Lesner fellating has elevated beyond reason. Again, the man has beaten all of Heath Herring in his illustrious MMA career. This thread shouldn't exist.

It wouldn't matter how many fights he has. If you beat the top ranked guy's you become a top ranked guy. If you beat the #1 and #2 guy's in your division you undoubtly become the #1 guy in your division regardless of your experience or percieved skill set. Thats how a real ranking system works.
Of course all MMA ranking is BS and is based more on who likes who and who some guy on a web site thinks will beat whom rather than any actual standardized system of wins and loses.

Maybe cuz the heavyweight division doesnt really have anyone in it and the only guys that Brock has fought are top tier guys.......I would put him at 3...dunno i dont see him beating Fedor and i think he would get caught again not k/o but submitted...

I'd rather a guy be ranked #2 for having fought the best in the division and won than have a record of 40-0 and fought no one like most boxers.
