I was reading an article yesterday morning where "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and Evander Holyfield who were both in attendance at UFC 116 said Brock Lesnar is the baddest man on the planet.
After Lesnar's display/s, I just want to know do you guys think he is now worthy of this nickname?
Past "Baddest Man on the Planet" guys include Mike Tyson, Ken Shamrock, even Dennis Rodman haha!
He is as long as he isn't getting punched in the face.
He's the baddest man on the planet just as long as he's on top of you in mount.

nah I don't think so, the way he ran away from Carwin proved it ;D
Covering up till your opponent tires himself out don't make u badass
And what standing in front of him and getting KO'ed does :confused:Quote:

He focus' in on it until you find a way around it and then he loses miserably (a la foot lock). Brock is not a well rounded fighter at all, neither is Klitschko. But both of them are just too big to mess with.Quote:

Totally agree. Brock is sure q tough nail but he has shown that his stand up is definitely top of the league and that he's vulnerable to blows big time.Quote:

Mate anyone who hits as hard as Carwin is going to be vunerable to blows, Carwin takes people out for fun. If Brock wasnt such a bad ass then he WOULD have been taken out by all those blows, fact is he took what Carwin had to dish out then nailed him in the next round. I challenge anyone to stand toe 2 toe with Carwin and survive a round, not many would get through hence his record.
Lets not forget Brock has only had 7 MMA fights.
If Carwin would have had a decent cardio, it was over for Brock. Also, the day Brock will fight a De Santos or a Overeem for example who's a stand up artist well trained he will likely be over because he just doesn't have the skills to match these guys.Quote:

Yea i agree to a point. IF Carwin had decent cardio, well im sorry, but as a top MMA fighter i would honestly expect my man to be able to go at least 3 rds at a decent pace. His problem was he knocked the fcuk out of everyone to date in 1 rd. If he thinks he can nail everyone in 1 rd then he deserves to lose, because one day someone will take his shots and drag him into unknown territory. Surely he must have trained for 5 hard rounds :confused:, but clearly that was not the case, and his own fault.
If's and but's are all well and good. What did happen was that he got excited and gassed himself out.
Brock is a learning machine and juding by his past performances you can see how much more improved his all round game is. I have no illusions that he will look at that fight and now concentrate on stand up just as much as he improved his BJJ. Once he gets those big shots firing then god help all who stand before him :cool:
i m sorry but the guy got manhandled .........carwin just tired and laid there like a fucking idiot, rematch, lesnar will get pumled and if not, cain will take care of that ass
I think Brock should fight Dennis Rodman for baddest man of all time honors.
yeah i think lesnar is baddes man on the planet @ the moment
