Yeah, and Lesnar beat a contender in his last fight, and with Mir and Nog tied up, who else is there in the division? Kongo? He has been avoiding Lesnar since BEFORE the Herring fight.

The Heavyweight division is completely uncomparible to 205 right now. Fact is, Lesnar is legitimately the strongest available challenge for Couture.

As for 205, the division is so deep with quality fighters with strings of results behind them that the fight has to go to the top contenders. Without any real established contenders left in Heavyweight, it goes to the next best guy.

So yes, I do realise that Brock is fighting for the title with only 3 previous pro fights. I also realise he is a monster, with massive drawing power, and a massively dominating victory over one of the divisions biggest players.

Do you realise that Heavyweight and Light Heavyweight divisions in UFC right now are so vastly different that your arguing point might as well been about bass fishing?
