    Enter Nog. Brock didn't look ALL that and i think Nog will finish him.
    Minotauro?I don't think so.He's got some mad bjj but I don't think he can submitt brock.look at his neck.his arm.too huge for a choke or an armbar.only chance is to catch his ankle like Mir did but I doubt if he's gonna make the same mistake again..Brock is just too big for everyone.i think the worst opponent for brock is someone who possess big power and great striking skills.maybe a lorenzo kane or a gabriel gonzaga.but still I'm not saying they will defeat lesnar.
    Yes Minotauro. He got careless against Herring but the guy is a beast. lets not forget he's 6ft 3 and 240, as you say has some mad BJJ, is a good boxer and IS powerful.

    I loved Randy and he was one of my favourite fighters but if randy would have gotten past Brock i feel he would have lost to Nog. There is no doubt about it Brock is a phenomenal athlete but regardless of Necks and arms they are still submittable. Add to that i think Nog beats him at stand up. His chin is fantastic, his recovery is great BUT he has been in some battles...that may come into play.

    From what i read on here also people are talking about Brock fighting Mir should he get past Nog as if people are assuming Mir will beat Nog...please, lets get real. Mirs BJJ is not even on a level with Nogs, his wrestling is nothing to speak of and his standup is way below the par of Nogeuira's..Nog will win easily IMO.

    So, it will be Nog-Brock and as much as i think Brock is a powerful, formiddable athlete i think Nog will have his number.
    I don't think Minotauro is that good as you said.I think in this sport most of the time its always a matter of imposing your gameplan and I think wrestling is the most effective discipline.Minoutauro..his wrestling is not even close to Brock's and yes he has the best BJJ in the division but boxing?POWERFUL?c'mon man..I can't remember this guy winning via KO.he's fwockin good for real but as far as I know he was never able to battered Herring like Brock did, 6' 3" 240lb?yes he has size but remember he had a close call against a middleweight Dan Henderson.and if I'm right he even lost to him once.Henderson is a Greco-Roman wrestler and its clear Minotauro had troubles with great wrestlers like Josh Barnett.So with this I don't think he can beat Randy.and we all knew he got pretty much exposed to Fedor multiple times.

    Sylvia was an unskilled giant who has a good right hand.with some good take down defence and decent chin too.and so was Herring.so far that's all Minotauro has handled in the UFC.He would have all the trouble against an athletic guy and much worst it will be hell to him if he'll go up against a dominant wrestler.I mean a great wrestler.

    But I do think he would defeat Mir.and I hope he does.so we can all see how Brock fairs against 'younger' opponent and if he wins again that time I hope he would get the respect he deserves.But I should still state that IMO,Randy was the best heavyweight out there and he just got served.
