that's pretty cool and all, but how does he get a shot at the belt?

Because he just beat a contender and he is a massive draw. Should they put in fighters who have zero drawing ability instead?

It's still a business. And as a fighter, he dominated the next challenger for the interim title for 89 seconds of a 90 second fight and he absolutely man handled a top contender for 3 rounds.

The Heavyweight division is by far the weakest the UFC has.. They brought in Cro Cop to "ignite" it, but he never got used to the cage and got beat a few times, ruining that idea.. Couture came back from retirement to fight Sylvia for the title and dominated him.. He wanted to fight Fedor, who some say is the best HW in the world, but UFC couldn't get the deal done to bring him to America, so Couture, with no "big name" fighters to fight re"retired"..
Lesnar has since come in, dominating his first fight until getting caught by an ankle by a BJJ black belt, and then totally dominated his next fight, making MMA vet Heath Herring look like shit.. It's a big money fight and one of the only options UFC has at HW.. |

It's funny that a bunch of prowrestling fans are questioning the actions of the biggest MMA organisation in the world..

Just like the WWE, it's who's going to make the most money in a PPV. Not who's the most deserving. Though for some reason, in UFC at least, the two tend to be one and the same rather then two totally different options.
This one seems to be the latter but I dunno...I'm not that much of a UFC fan. |

I said it a couple of times, and I'll say it again:
I can see Randy humbling Lesnar. I can also see Brock Megaton Punching Couture across the cage and manhandling him. |

LIST OF PEOPLE BROCK LESNAR WOULD EASILY DESTROY:
1. Xero Limit 126 That's about all I can think of for now. I'll get back to this later. I promise. |

I dunno how much of a chance Lesnar has of actually beating Couture, but i'd love to see that, and i'd still like to see Emelianenko vs. Couture, if that has a better chance of happening now that Couture has sorted out his contract with the UFC? I dunno. |

From what I heard this isnt exactly a title match,
While technically Couture is the heavyweight champ.....Nogueira is the interim champ since Couture left. What I heard was that the winner of Couture/Lesnar will go on to face Nogueira sometime next year to crown the undisputed champion. Dana White said that he didnt want this to be some sort of title match. The reason this match was happening was "to show fans we can make matches that fans want to see." White also went on to say that he GUARANTEES This will be the fight of the year. |

I must admit to not having ideal knowledge of MMA, but I have to assume that big bad Lesnar is going to get his ass beat.

I dunno.. I all depends on if Couture allows him to impose his will.. Lesnar is big and powerful enough to pretty much take anyone down and ride them.. Couture needs to take him out of his element by going for submissions or something.. If fighters allow Lesnar to make it his fight, he's gonna be hard to stop..

I think Lesnar will honestly beat Couture. Lesnar is a serious monster.
Any chances of Lesnar vs Kimbo Slice? That would be a hillarious match right there. |

How blinkered to suggest wrestling fans shouldn't have an opinion on UFC. Maybe we should remove the TV/Movies forum too, because what the fuck do we know about making movies?
And how DARE we discuss casual topics on a wrestling forum? What the fuck do WE know about life, the universe and everything? From now on, anyone volunteering opinions on anything other than wrestling (even though 99% of us have never stepped foot in a ring) will receive a Neg-Rep Of Doom™ |

I think the discussion can be held in any forum as long as some jackass named Kris P Lettus just lets the conversation flow instead of saying where it should be held and who should be having it.
JUST SAYING MACE. |
