meh GSP is going to rock fitch
Lesnar is a publicity stunt but that would stop him from getting his ass kicked again 
Florian should be a great fight though |

I don't think Brock is that bad as your making him, of course he took the easy road coming from wwe but come on, he almost finished off former champ Frank Mir and i think he'll take this next fight against heath herring |

| The guy comes from WWE but then tries out to play in the NFL for the Vikings then tries K1 and finally ends up in the UFC. Seems he doesnt know how to make up his mind huh ? Hes a good wrestler with enough muscle to keep you down, but he lacks technique. Frank Mir is a jiu-jitsu master, using that art you want your opponet to attack you so you can get a better position or turn their attack against them. Lesner is an attraction till he proves himself otherwise, majority know him from the WWE. But in the UFC its not always the biggest and baddest who win, it comes down to strategy and technique. Cheik Kongo is a much better fighter than lesner and Herring took that fight in a split decision, i see herring either dropping Lesner or making him submit. |

| Yeah, being compared to Kimbo (no skill) isn't exactly a good thing. That Elite XC show last month was a disgrace. At least the WEC event the next night was fantastic (especially the Torres fight). |

Yeah, Uriah Faber fight was great too! Its too bad they dont add some bantam or lightweights to the UFC cards...So much fun watching the lighter guys!
if they add them it would be unreal!

I might be wrong, but I believe the UFC had the lighter weights at one time... but since Zuffa bought the WEC, UFC eliminated their lighter weight classes, as the WEC eliminated their heavier weight classes.
Uriah Faber is an animal... he's cleared out that 145 weight class.... I wonder if he will step up to 155...
As for Brock, he's a two-time NJCAA All-American, two-time NCAA All-American, two-time Big Ten Champion, and the 2000 NCAA heavyweight champion with a record of 106-5 (per wiki). He had a good showing against Mir (I actually think he had Mir in a little trouble for a hot minute). And Mir is not a tomato can like the guy Kimbo fought and almost lost too (the fight could of easily been stopped when Kimbo was getting pounded for a good 2 minutes, it probably should of been stopped)... |
