Brock TKOs the most decorated man in the UFC. Holy shite. It happened just as I picked it but i still can't belive it. In his 4th MMA fight Lesnar destroyed Couture in the 2nd. what do you guys think?

Was surprised to see Brock beating Couture to the punch standing. Randy's boxing has looked good recently (Sylvia, GG), and Brock landed a couple big shots before putting Randy down. Liked his takedown when Randy tried to take his back, slick transition.
Brock looked a bit gassed by the second, but I think it was nerves more than anything. He looked good, and if he keeps improving at the pace he has so far he's gonna pose some interesting problems for the winner of Nog/Mir.

I wouldn't say "destroyed", Couture held his game for most of the time..
ALL respect to Couture, that guy truly is a hero, and is the best fighter that ever lived. If anyone here wants to bullsh*t about Couture, your crazy and have no respect for the sport of MMA.
Im just happy Couture went out the way he did, and was not to busted up. Still after the loss, was a great guy. He will truly be remembered.
Not taking anything away from Lesnar, he went in there and did what he had to do.
Give em a few more fights, see how he does, if beats em in a quick fashion.
I wouldn't mind seeing Fedor / Lesnar...

Lol I think that is a brutal match up for Brock, a guy who is faster, can hit like a train and can submit almost anyone. Brocks a big strong dude, but lets be realistic his game is still in it's infancy when it comes to striking and JJ, Randy doesn't KO people and he doesn't submit people, this was a pretty favorable match up for Brock from that end.

Oh jeez, I'm a huge Lesnar fan but let us be realistic, he would not win that fight 99/100 and maybe even less. If Fedor went to the UFC obviously this fight would have to happen if Brock held the title but he wouldn't be holding it any longer.
His stand up game looked fairly good tonight I was surprised, we didn't get to see any real sub defense except MAYBE defending Randy taking his back but supposedly he's been working on his JJ. Should be an interesting year for the HW division.

I don't think he is THAT overrated but CLEARLY Fedor is the best fighter I have ever seen, he would mash Randy like nothing.

I felt Randy had the fight were he wanted it he was gassing brock and if he didn't get hit we would have seen him control more and more of the fight due to the gas tank running low. There are two realitys when it comes to Brock Lesnar:
1. He will never be good past 2.5 rounds the has too much muscle that muscle needs oxegen and in the middle of a 5 round fight is nowhere to find it.
2. If you get punhched in the face by thoses cinder blocks he calls hands you are going to fall.
Anyone else feel that if Randy had weatherd that last storm that would have been it for Brock, he would have " Blown his wad" ? He prob will knock Nog down but Nog is so quick to recover from a big shot and tie you up he wastes that energy with Hammer fists like we have seen him do 2 times now he is going to gas. Congrats To Brock he just beat a legend.

If he is controlling the pace of the fight, then I think he can go 4 or 5 rounds, but if he is not controlling the pace, he will get tired. Randy being smaller, could push a faster pace and I think that was his game plan to take him into a longer battle. The thing is, I don't know how much energy Randy would have used trying to take Brock down. Brock looked like he was handling a child, tossing Randy around pretty effortlessly.
I think the key to Brock's success will be fighting smart fights, at least until he gets another 2 or more years experience.
