be like watah, lesnar is watah. his style is one of a kind- a new natural is born- both are naturals w, verey diff. styles that are perfected to the max. randy was perfection in terms of his style, yet w/ age defying reality- brock- has a gift that only few (if any) has been blessed with, his ability to adapt (WATAH) to any kind of style and feed off of that energy even under the consideration of one who lacks experience is a style only the best of the best can distinguish. Experience is not a factor in his case and he knows it deep down inside, my question is this- Can brock retire in good fashion and leave the sport with dignity and respect, or will his pride and ego box him in to a land of “no submitting allowed” as did the rest of the legends of the greats did? …….Wisdom to gain when the time is upon you is a blessing not to pass up with the mind controlled by your weakness-the feeling is mutual, yet the heart will only whisper? much love to Randy….

Randy did a good job and Brock deserved the win. However, but my stomach is queezy from thinking a WWF (E – whatever) wrestler is now an MMA title holder. I realize the guy has real credentials in amatuer wrestling. Yet, these are still early days for MMA in the US and I hope the masses don’t view this as “see those MMA guys really aren’t that good – because that WWF guy trained for like a year and won the belt”.

The heavyweight division still feels paper thin after years of being the weakest division. I hope Cain and Shane are for real and learn quick to provide some depth.

I don’t like to hate on Brock because of the WWE stigma – but I do. Jeez, I hope this comes to an end soon.

Please. Make no mistake that, until now, Brock has not been tested by a good opponent. He faced the critics and the champion and won. Stop the whining about a bad record, doesn’t deserve a title shot…Blah! It’s all crap. The sport is fine, the heavyweight division is better for having Brock Lesnar in it. If Frank Mir is a contender for the belt having faced ridiculous opponents, Why can’t Brock be the champ? Mir beat noone of any credibility before taking out Sylvia for the belt. He just fought more bums before he got his shot.

As i believe Nog will KO (not submit) Mir, Brock should prepare to fight Nog. I have no doubt Nog will submit Brock from his back. Quite easily. He better work hard between now and when they fight on his submission escapes. Completely different fighter to Mir and far more dangerous. Although i am excited Brock is in the UFC, he still needs work and he knows that too.

I agree Thorazine, Couture 2 years ago could have taken Lesnar.Time is an unforgiving whore, and I do believe age has finally begun to catch up to Captain America.Randy is still the man though and did well against the man-beast. I do think Lesnar has potential to grow and be a serious threat with skills aside from his overwhelming size.As it is for now though… I do have some respect for him but not nearly on the level of Randy. He hasn’t payed enough dues to be in the position he is in…yet he is the Champion…The sad thing is I’m not sure Big Nog can take him out..nor Mir a second time; who does that leave really?(I do realize there is a handful of guys that possibly could take him, but not going to list every possible name) The UFC heavy weight division is in need of some true heavy weight talent these days.I would put my money of Fedor for sure though over Lesnar, but he is a far sight from the UFC so….
looks like for now Lesnar might be here for a while.

Well said Thorazine, but the sad reality is that we have to have to listen to Brock “Honkey Kong” Lesnar UFC heavyweight champ until Big Nog takes it from him

Dark days indeed…

In keeping with the changing tide of the UFC, now that Dana says he would promote Gina, how about a superfight of Gina vs The Fabulous Moolah, loser gets their head shaved?

That punch Lesnar threw to knock down Couture reminded me a lot of that 1st punch Matt Serra grazed the back of GSP’s head before Serra capitalized on a seris of punches to end their 1st fight.

Couture was doing pretty good but what shocked me about the fight was Couture’s physique’, it looked like age finally got to him. Lesnar was right when he said Couture looked like a guy that took a year off. However, I don’t think the lay off is necessarily the case, it’s physiology and changes Couture is going through at his age, his body is producing more estrogen and very little testostrone.. Time to let the young lions rule the cage. The fight Couture beat Gonzaga was the best I’ve ever seen him fight.. I think Couture a 2 yrs ago would have taken Brock tonight…

Gonzaga & Nog wouldn’t stand a chance. Ok maybe a head kick from Gonzaga….pffftttt like that will happen. Brock is too big, too strong and only getting better. Nog is way past his best and his body has taken a battering. Lesnar is so fresh and raw and is learning the game so quickly. Top notch wrestlers like Lesnar are hard to handle. See what he did to the crazy horse who is so experienced and now Randy. Brock needs real competition and as much as I hate to say it and it really sucks but another raid on the WWE is in order to find more heavy weights

Fedor could destroy Brock I think.

Gonzaga and Nog could also.

But Congrats to Lesnar on being the New UFC Champ!!

“Frate Trane just God blessed God, the public school system has failed The Brosnar.” Ahahahaha! Good fight, hate to see Couture lose…but had a gut feeling he was gonna get caught with one.Randy’s comments after the fight had me rolling laughing also…indeed those are some big ass ham hocks Lesnar calls fist..and they are hard to get out of the way of.The UFC now has an ex-pro wrestler as the Heavy Weight Champion… with a MMA record of 3-1…and is now drawing in the likes of 50 Cent doing music video promos.Scary shit, I hope this great sport doesn’t get turned into a 3-ring circus or anything…….

Not taking anything away from Lesnar, he won..congratulations…he’s one big mofo.Now please get Fedor to relinquish some justice.
