Brock Lesnar; you acted like a compete moron! I know you don’t care what the fans have to say about you. But you should, because in the end, we are the reason you are able to fight like this. So at least respect us enough to know when it’s time to be professional, and when it’s time to act a fool.

Backstage you can do what you want, but on air, you need to really reconsider bashing sponsors and flicking off the fans; this isn’t the WWE.

And I’m not saying it wasn’t amusing, but it seriously reminded me when you were in the WWE dude. I stopped watching that stuff to watch the real deal sports, and you came over here to stop faking the funk and really compete. So focus on competing; not pissing off the people that pay you!

Edit to my former post. I accidentally pasted the “says” part after that goddammit-ed Ed dude. That was my comments in response to his idiocy.

Ok, first off. All you idiots who STILL doubt Brock’s ability and make excuses such as: Lay n Pray, His weight advantage etc. are the biggest losers of them all.
goddammit-ed says:

You are the biggest idiot of them all. Did you ever see Fedor submit Hong Man Choi????

If your logic had any merit, then as the other poster said, people like Bob Sapp would win all the time, unfortunately, they don’t.

Did you see Mir Submit a much larger Sylvia???? Probably not because you don’t pay attention to things that contradict your very limited logic.

Let’s look at Brock’s 3 UFC Wins

Heath Herring — One of the most experienced fighters out there
Couture — Former Champ
Mir — Former Champ

Also to throw another hole in your logic?
Couture was roughly 50-60 lbs less than Sylvia and knocked his ass down and LAID ON HIM for most of the match…

Wow how about that? A guy who weights 50 less than the other lays on him?
You gonna say he laid n prayed too?

People like YOU are a disgrace to MMA.

Any MMA fan with an IQ of over 12 could tell you that weight is a small issue. Once again, ask Fedor, CroCop, Mir in his first fight against Brock, and anyone who has beaten Sapp or Choi.

Wow, you’re an epic disgrace.

I have a very bad feeling that at the moment Brock may well overwhelm Fedor as much as I hate to say it.

And as far as Mir goes I think he got what he deserved. Even while he was down in the first round he was flashing cocky looks across his face and his lack of respect for his opponent and high opinion of himself were two of his major downfalls. Plus the fact that Brock is an absolute beast didn’t help his cause either.

Memo to “notdanawhite”…

Show me the man that can cut 30+ pounds 24 hours prior to a fight…
And I’ll show you…
A man that can heal the sick & turn water into wine…
Neither one exists…

Some of you have either NEVER been a competitor or NEVER put your life on the line…If you don’t know, you never will…

Brock was himself that was great. I actually disagree with the apology more than the way he acted.

Frank Mir kida deserved it he was very cocky and a bit disrespectful before the fight. Look what happend to Bisping.

Brock is a freak, and I dont see anyone beating him for a while.

I just hope Fedor is in his prime by the time they fight each other.

I’m Glad PlagueAngel could see my sarcasm in writing, and yes PlagueAngel I was not serious. Yes the weight cutting conversations drive me nuts and yes the weight difference in the heavy weight division drives me nuts too. I should let you guys get to know me first before I go off on my sarcastic rants! I’m not a fan of Brock but am willing to admit he is a gifted athlete with a huge frame and a work ethic to make him develop faster then most in MMA. And Yes Mu_shin Royce Gracie “built this house”

@ BrockLesnarRules

Why does everyone use that same old tired argument. “So and so would kick your ass”. Well, no shit they would and I would expect them to. After all, they are TRAINED FIGHTERS!!!!!! Anyone in the UFC in any division should be able to whip any of our asses that post on here. Maybe some of us train MMA, but the majority of us are like myself, avid MMA fans. So yes, Lesnar would destroy all of us. Thanks for the update

Brock is really starting to grow on me. Watching him bash a major sponser right after he bashed that pretentious gimp’s face really warmed my heart.

We need more brutal honesty in this world – not more plastic, fake cookie-cutter personalities.

Brock Lesnar tells it like he sees it. How can you fault a man for that?

You know there is 1 thing that really puts sand in my undies! and that is people winging about ANOTHER HUMAN BEINGS actions. So what if he didn’t live up to your standards, he was being him, instead of being a robot that does everything that he feels the general public or a sponsor wants him to, I love it and would like to see it more often.
Good win and good “sticking it to the man” Brock.

ed,

Royce Gracie submitted Remco Pardoel in an early UFC weighing 175 lbs. to Pardoel’s 250 lbs., just like he’d submit you if you were foolish enough to get in the ring with him. There are myriad examples of MMA fighters beating much bigger opponents before the advent of weight classes, so your size argument is not supported by MMA history. Not to mention the first Mir/Lesnar fight.

Couldn’t care less about Brock’s behavior before or after the bell. I’m interested in his behavior in the octagon, and this time in the cage, he got it done. H

This weight thing is kind of stupid. I don’t even know why the UFC has a 265 lb. limit in the first place. The Heavyweight division is just that – the biggest, toughest guys in the world. Fans must have short memories because Randy did fine with Brock’s “unfair weight advantage.” He hurt him more than a few times and cut him before Brock caught him with a solid right. That’s fighting.

As much as I dislike Lesnar he now has three straight wins over quality opponents. That doesn’t happen by accident, it takes skill.

I don’t think “goddammit-ed” was being serious. Some other guy said on here last week that he thought Machida was “overrated”. Now someone says that fighters shouldn’t be able to cut weight. That weight cut argument effects 100% of the fighters since all of them cut 10-30 Ibs to make their weight class. Guys like St.Pierre/Alves/Hughes(endless names) cut 20+ Ibs and Lesnar cuts 30 Ibs and everyone is having a fit. No one said anything after Mir beat Lesnar the first time, now that he loses, its a topic. To say that Lesnar has no skills and that we won only because of his size is absolute lunacy.

goddammit-ed”PlagueAngel-you are an idiot!! You obviously have no clue what MMA is! When 2 guys face each other at the same weight-skill and athleticism is the key to the outcome of the fight. When some dumb idiot who cuts 30lbs to make the maximum weight allowed by the UFC and outweighs his opponent by 50lbs lands on you-it’s tough to get him off of you. He has no skills and I challenge anyone who says 3 yrs is all you need to be a BBJ Black-belt, Wrestling Champ, Boxing Champ, -I mean come on…Pull your head out of your ass!! He only won last night and the other nights because he is a huge guy with A HUGE WEIGHT ADVANTAGE-like I said, I will take on anyone 50lbs lighter than me and I will fuck them up too!!!”

Listen after the fight last night I thought Lesnar looked like he had a manic attack when he got in Mir’s face after he’d already beat him to a pulp to the point he could have gotten out of control, but to say he has no skills besides size is lunacy.

By using your Logic Bob Sapp and Jimmy Ambriz would be unbeatable. Lesnar not only out wrestled Mir he used great technic using wrist control and trapping his arm so he couldn’t defend himself in the first round then in the second he pinned his arm again and put him against the cage where he had no where to go. He looked awesome last night and it was more than just because of his size. Not to mention he took virtually no damage. He could fight again soon if a suitable challenger was ready but Cain Velasquez needs more time. Carwin will get smoked if he fights Lesnar.

Your opinion is a minority. Lesnar has been training for years now and he is now viewed as one of the best heavyweight fighters in the world. If Mir had beaten Lesnar in an armbar, we would not be having this conversation. Your opinion is is insane, that writing this is a waste of time.

ya charles manson is emotional too.

Lesnar lost control.

all that Mir trash talk is encouraged by the UFC. those are promotional pieces and almost scripted, the fighters are coached on what to say. the video is then edited by the ufc to promote the fight. i just hope Lesnar’s antics were not encouraged behind the scenes.

by “behind the scenes” i mean in meetings inaccessible to reporters and fans, and kept private within the organization.

i hate WWE.
