I’m very sick of the fact that i can’t watch the weigh ins on the net. What in the hell is wrong here?????????????
lesnar 2nd round submission rear naked choke
Couture. 3rd Round. Frog splash for the 1, 2, 3.
The funny thing is….the first statement is funnier than the 2nd!
Lesnar might win, but it certainly wont be by submission….More than likely overwhelm couture from the top with GNP until its stopped, that is if couture doesnt gas him and pcik him apart.
I am convinced that UFC pretty much makes up heights. I think Brock is closer to 6′3 1.75″ (almost 6′4, he looked a good bit taller than Mir) and I think Randy is no longer 6′2″, he is 6′1 1/2″ on a good day. I also noticed that UFC.COM has Frank Mir listed at 6′1″ when they listed him at 6′3″ during the Sylvia fight. They also have Big Nog listed at 6′1″ when most of the world thinks he is more like 6′3-4″ and when walking near Mir is clearly an inch or so taller. UFC height testers smoke the crack rock.
Lesnar is a solid 6′3″. He will weigh 290 by fight time. He starts dropping weight 2 days prior to fight and loads it back on! Couture bulks up to get to 220!! Lesnar via 3rd rnd GNP
