Make Your Pick: Couture or Lesnar

[Evan]

NCAA wrestling medals don't equal UFC belts...

Of course not...but they build the base of a prospect. Hey even Randy says he would be nowhere without his wrestling background.

At the time Cro Cop LOOKED like a top fighter when he first came over but now we now he was nothing more than a Hardonk in the UFC. So i say Kongo has still not faced a top opponent.

[dbreiden83080]

You need to back up and remember where he was at then. You can't take what he has done recently and accuse Kongo of having no compe ion. At the time everyone thought the UFC was throwing Cro Cop somewhat of a layup to KO. Including me.

Yep pretty much what i said..

Randy was there that night doing commentary and he was the only one in the building pickling Gonzaga to win the fight

You're having revisionist history. Cro Cop was still a awesome fighter when he walked into that cage that night. I would say thats the fight where he lost his fire.

I was talking about Kongo and CC.

[Evan]

and he was the only one in the building pickling Gonzaga to win the fight

I think that was the dawn of "prophet prediction Randy"

[Evan]

I was talking about Kongo and CC.

And he was validating Cro Cop for that fight Kongo CC fight.

[dbreiden83080]

I was talking about Kongo and CC.

CC looked like in that fight no doubt after a good first round he, let Kongo kick him in the hips and legs for 2 rounds. But he was seen as a beast heading into to the Gabe fight, as Evan and myself are saying..

[Evan]

Yeah I mean he was very much considered a top 5 fighter then.

I still wonder if he can be back to one again one day...I wish he would go away for a year and relax/heal up.

Dude has been in so many fights....

[dbreiden83080]

Correct me if i'm wrong but i though heading into the Gonzaga fight, CC was seen as the 2nd best heavy on the planet, and Fedor was the only man that could beat him

Nobody thought he was washed up then

if I remember right.... generally...think it was Fedor, Cro Cop, Nog, Tim and uh..........Arovski? Josh?

Still can't believe idiots had Hunt in the top 10 back then....

[dallaskd]

bump. lets get predictions. so far its a 5-5 draw.

[tlongII]

If you are putting Brock in the same category as Sapp, you are not given the man his proper due at all. Brocks background is so superior to Sapp it is crazy

Personally I think Sapp would beat the out of Lesnar. He's a lot bigger than Brock.

Sapp has a glass jaw and no wrestling. The reason he was successful vs Nog was he was so much physically bigger and had decent enough sub defense.

Sapp is not a fighter...he is a Japanese cartoon for show.

I'm not kidding.

[angelbelow]

i voted corture by sub

Yeah you just showed a staggering lack of MMA knowledge on that one..

Try again...

[Evan]

^one of countless Japanese MMA cartoons. MMA and WWF type wrestling are a hybrid form of sports in Japan. You're never sure whats legit in a lot of cases.

I don't think any of you truly grasp how strong Brock Lesnar is.....he's going to bum rush that old guy and no matter how crafty he is or how hard he tries to make Lesnar submit, eventually Lesnar is going to knock Couture's ass out with a hook or a cross...

I want to see Lesnar fight Kimbo Slice, that would REALLY destroy the Kimbo legend.

[dallaskd]

Still gotta love Sapp, dude is hilarious.

Anyone could destroy the Kimbo Legend. Brad Imes could destroy the Kimbo Legend if he wanted.

[Evan]

I don't think any of you truly grasp how strong Brock Lesnar is.....

No I think I got it. I think he will win.

I want to see Lesnar fight Kimbo Slice, that would REALLY destroy the Kimbo legend.

No...

He just got washed out by a class E scrub who fights in a class lower than him weight wise. Losing to Lesnar would be a legitimate fight.

[dbreiden83080]

LOL, yeah i've seen that video before, Sapp is a total joke..

[Evan]

Still gotta love Sapp, dude is hilarious.

Oh absolutely.

I'm surprised EliteXC didn't pull a few strings to get him to fight Kimbo.
