And for the record, I think Mir will win because of experience. Brock in the past has never been caught short on agility, cardio, or speed though. With a few fights under his belt, I personally think he has a chance at a good run in UFC Brock wasn’t caught with HGH or steroids, they were a vitamin supplement.

Nowadays he looks like he did when he was a collegiate wrestler, so I highly doubt that he's still on HGH. Besides, it makes you bigger (good for WWE stuff) but makes your muscles weaker (bad for MMA). And if you think taking steroids for WWE crap is cheating, then you guys must hate Rachelle Leah, and number of other chicks whose tits are "cheating" for entertainment work as well. :) I think Mir has a chance, and I think Brock has a chance. Should be a fun fight. Regarding Brock and hormones in 2001, he was training for Pro wrestling at the time in OVW (WWE’s WEC) where he was bigger than he ever was while competing.

Arlovski won and became the heavyweight champion. mir never got around to getting the title shot because of an unsuccessful return. u know... lost the first match back.. then performed horribly in his second match back. [although he won] and then got seriously jacked up by brandon vera in the third fight back. after a quick win over hardonk and a possible win over lesnar.. and maybe one more fight.. he can finally get a shot at the title again. as much as i hate tim sylvia and wouldn't wan to see him as heavyweight champ again... i would like to see him and mir meet for the title again.. for old times... you know..

You can take it to the bank that a dude with 1 fight against an absolute can will beat a former UFC heavyweight champion. Lesnar will come out and throw a couple of punches and then will run Mir into the fence and then take his legs out. He will then go ape shit with punches and throw one big looping one which Mir will catch and then break. OR Lesnar will take Mir down and Mir will spin on the bottom trapping an arm and then apply a fight ending toe hold. The first one is a lot more likely but the second one is what happened the last time Mir was in this type of situation. Oh Sam, you so crazy.

I'm exited to see what Lesnar will bring. He's a very aggressive fighter with incredible strength. He's very compact & I reckon he'll be a bitch to submit.

You can't do that & be a pussy even if most of the strikes aren't real. Here’s Lesnar winning at Dynamite!! USA: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3QbxqyRlWw I've rarely seen a fighter tap out from strikes in this position. Reckon they were seriously powerful strikes. He's very powerful & doesn't look to slow for my books. Mir has more experience no doubt but he's not at the level needed to end this quickly if possible. Not taking away his achievements but UFC has come a long way in the last 4-5 years. Just look at GSP! The future as they call him. So well rounded it's not funny. That's where all fighters want to be. I'd like to see Mir win because I consider him a vet & he's been through the mill. I just hope that the fight is a good one & that the UFC haven't made a big mistake with Lesnar. Something tells me that this is going to be someone’s wake-up call. Anyway, Arlovski would wipe the floor with both of them. I'm praying for him to get his shit together. He's exciting but let himself down in the Silva rematch.

Even after he could start training again they were worried that hard training would snap his leg becuase it's held together with screws and metal plates and rubber bands and such.
