Randy Couture and Brock Lesnar pass pre-fight drug screenings for UFC 91
FiveOuncesOfPain.com was notified by the Nevada State Athletic Commission on Monday evening that six fighters scheduled to compete at UFC 91on Nov. 15 in Las Vegas were subjected to out-of-competition screenings for steroids and street drugs.
The fighters tested were UFC heavyweight champion Randy Couture, Brock Lesnar, Amir Sadollah, Nick Catone, Aaron Riley, and Jorge Gurgel.
According to NSAC, all six fighters passed their pre-fight screenings.
Lesnar and Couture were chosen because they both are scheduled to compete each other in the main event while the remaining four were chosen at random. Both main event competitors will be subject to additional testing the day prior and immediately after their fight while Sadollah, Catone, Riley, and Gurgel could be chosen at random to be tested again as well.

Couture has won against bigger men often enough that I wouldn’t bet against him. But damn, the beating Lesnar put on Herring was scary.

I have the feeling Couture loses by brutal ground and pound just like he did to Barnett and Ricco.I think you have to have top notch jui-jitsu to deal with Brock’s wrestling skills and power. This is Not Randy’s strong point,also how much longer can he compete at the top the guys 45 freaking years old.

It’s entirely possible that Couture submits Lesnar, it’s also entirely possible Lesnar pounds Couture out with a tko or decision.
If anything other than those two things happen… I’ll be surprised.

It’s also entirely possible that the echo of the vicious knockout Silva gives Cote swings back around the world and knocks both Lesnar and Couture out at the same time.
Also then candy flies down from the roof and Anderson Silva wins the 2008 Presidential Election.
Entirely possible.
