Brock Lesnar vs Randy Couture for the Heavyweight championship belt.

[VictorCharlie]

I'm on the fence about this one. Randy histroically had a hard time with big HWs (Ricco/Barnett) but he also beat Gonzaga and Sylvia pretty handily. Lesnar is bigger than all of those guys. While his technical skills are lacking his athleticism and wrestling are as good as it gets. At some point being 45 is going to matter. This might be the night where Captain America gets old. Too bad I'd much rather see Randy vs Nog or Fedor.

I see Lesnar handling Randy quite easily based on the same comments as Van.... Lesnar will take him down at will and I feel his reach will keep Randy at bay if the fight stays on foot until he can get the takedowns.. They are both very decorated wrstlers and I just see Brock being to much at this time


I always maintained that Randy would get smashed to pieces against Fedor, that fight dosent interest me at all... Fedor is to much class and skill were Randy is a blue collar grinder.. Fedor can do all of that plus sub you from any position with ease

think brock is going to get shown up here badly.

bit of a hater on him i will admit, if he does this ill give him props, but think randy fucks him up, then goes to figh fador.

I have a lot of respect for Couture as a fighter. He also showed in the past year that he isn't going to get bullied by that prick White. But this decision...both settling with UFC/Dana White and facing Lesnar...reeks of $$$ over pride and smarts. Not a fan of Lesnar at all...but he is young, big, and strong. Couture can certainly use his experience and superior skill to pull this out...but at his age he really is beginning to push his luck. That's why i laugh when people say Fedor vs. Couture would be a classic match...it wouldn't. It might have been several years ago...but i'm afraid Fedor really puts a hurting on Randy right now. I'm not going to hate on Randy for excepting the $$$ and swallowing his pride to come back to fight for UFC...afterall, it's hard to turn down big paydays and i'm sure in his mind he feels like he still can fight at a high level. But i have a sneaking suspicion that Dana White is going to be the last man laughing...he will get the exposure and $$$ from this fight...while Randy could potentially end his career on a sour note. I guess we shall see.

Lesnar Destroys Couture in 2 rounds, Just like he did the other two...... Mir got his ass whipped for 98.5% of the fight and got a cheap lucky ankle lock.

if you think that was a cheap lucky ankle lock then you don't know mma. What that shows is that lesnar is clueless in the submission game and don't think he's going to learn what it takes to take on couture in less than a year. his boxing is average. Also couture has never gotten tired in his fights so i think lesnar is going to get taught a lesson

I agree with you.. Couture is far too skilled i got him by submission...
