For the past 5 of those 10 years, CC has been training ground defense, while JLB has been refining his striking game. JLB is big, experienced, and tough - if CC had problems with Kongo, he's going to have a hell of a time with JLB. #11 Yeah, like 10 years ago and it went to a decision.

A very bad match up for Crocop at this stage. Lebanner is a far more decorated, experienced, and better Kickboxer than Crocop, so unless #15 is right and crocop utilises takedowns etc. I think it will be a long night for Crocop. P.S. Since when did Mir have good wrestling and striking?. Lebanner will win. A very bad match up for Crocop at this stage.

Let’s see how he fares against someone with good BJJ AND striking with some wrestling polish to round out their game." We saw that already, his name was Frank Mir. Lesnar needs time to learn MMA, he can't bullrush every opponent and win, and I'm glad that Mir taught him that the hard way. “As for Lesnar, the Jury’s still out.

"CroCop will be UFC champion in the next two years. Then will eventually lose the title to Brock Lesnar……… Remember these words." ahahahaha! sorry.......such boundless optimism went out the door when Gonzaga hit the button with his foot, and Crocop didn't follow up by going on a tear and demolishing people. He's only human, and getting old. I'll remember these words as one of the most ignorant ex-WWE now-CC fanboy statements I've ever heard. I don't see CC ever being UFC heavyweight Champ. He's a possibility to be LHW champ, but he may never make the cut. As for Lesnar, the Jury's still out. Let's see how he fares against someone with good BJJ AND striking with some wrestling polish to round out their game. But then again, who fits the bill right now in the UFC's HW division? Give Velasquez a year or two. Shane Carwin's got promise, but Nogueira's looking very likely to hold onto the title for a long while. yeah, they did fight to a decision…….Crocop looked so young!
