Did you see the shockwave that went thru Gonzaga's opponent? The replay was awesome.









I would love to see Brock put Kimbo on his back and make a pile of blood and bone out of him.

Good set of fights but the Lesnar fight ended as i thought it would. Randy made a good attempt but it was pretty inevitable that Brock would catch him one way or the other. On a side note, the uppercut given by Stphenson? will be shown again on UFC Best Knockout videos...wow!

LOL @ all the Couture fanbois and their excuses.

- lucky punch
- hit his brain clusters? wtf is that?
- Couture was out of his prime
- etc
- etc

I told you guys last week that Couture would have trouble working a GnP/Cardio game on Brock, dude's just too big and strong. Couture really doesn't knock guys out or submit guys, most of the time he gets on top and wears guys out.

As far as Gonzaga...he'd have just as hard a time "tiring out" Brock. It takes more energy/effort to keep Brock down than he spends if you get him down. Not like other smaller guys where someone like Couture can get in their half guard and wait for them to wilt.

Anderson Silva needs to pack on the pounds come up to lesners class and beat the hell outta him with his badass mua tai...that would be badass but i dont think silva is capable of gaining that much weight and keeping it as lean muscle lol...

I still don't agree with you.


I think gonzaga has such a better chance due to how winded brock was already looking by the end of the first round.

Gonzaga has amazing strength, punches, kicks that he could keep Brock away and a decent ground game to say the lest



UNLESS Brock cuts some weight, he'll never be a fighter that will go past 2 rounds and will be the end of his HW career

Gonzaga can definitely catch Brock with a sub or a strike...he's very skilled. I was mainly just commenting on the notion that you can just wear Brock out by keeping him down.

I agree, he looked very winded after the first round. And he had a very hard time taking someone down who is 60lbs lighter and 15yrs older. Randy had better boxing skills(dodged a few punches and hit him in the face at least 3 solid times). Brock just took his punches like nothing and when he caught Randy it was lights out. Randy has been knocked out by 205lb'ers. That was the only way Brock was going to win. His wrestling was not good enough to beat Randy, and he was clearly winded after the first round. Not to mention the reason why randy dropped out of the heavyweight division in the first place was because of bigger guys that could take away his wrestling advantage. Someone who can neutralize his wrestling, and stand toe to toe will beat him. His skills are not there, yet. Someone like fedor who is only mid 230's would destroy brock. I think nogeira will beat him. He can take a beating and his submission skills are enough to take advantage of brock's inexperience.
