Lesnar won the 2000 NCAA wrestling championship as a heavyweight after placing second in 1999.

Lesnar finished his amateur career as a two-time NJCAA All-American, two-time NCAA All-American, two-time Big Ten Champion, and the 2000 NCAA heavyweight champion with a record of 106-5 overall in four years of college.

106-5. That is an absolutely dominating record. And of course he failed as a football player; the man is clearly a singles competitor all the way.

Find another heavyweight in the UFC who has his size, strength and amateur background to boot. Find another heavyweight with his considerable speed, not to mention the sheer width of his sprawl (the man will be impossible to take down). There really aren't any. A lot of them are big, they have power, they can wrestle, but they're not as athletically sound in so many dimensions as Lesnar.

Should they hype his pro wrestling career? Maybe. It doesn't help him much. When people think of pro wrestling they think of steroids and Hulk Hogan. Not exactly the essentials of toughness. I think that Lesnar just needs some fights under his belt and he'll have already hyped himself.
