I'm rooting for Carwin. Lesnar's a freak, but I don't know that he's been hit by a guy with that kind of power just yet.

Of course, if Lesnar gets him (or anybody else) on his back, It's probably over.

I'll take Carwin, I guess. The whole world knows exactly what Lesnar is going to do. If Carwin can avoid a takedown or two, and deliver a couple of those bombs, it'll be an entirely different fight.

Carwin is going to win.

Lesnar hasn't fought since UFC 100, which was July 11, 2009. UFC 116 takes place on July 3, 2010.

A year without fighting won't help Lesnar.

sadly, I'll agree with that. but it's all the more reason to hope Lesnar wins - if he does, a fight with Fedor would make so much money it'd be silly for either party to not make it happen. It'd be the UFC's version of Ali - Frazier and Leonard - Hagler rolled into one.

Carwin wins by smashing his fists into Lesnars face. His clinch and dirty boxing will be key, although he won't be able to bully him like he did Mir.

I was going to say Lesnar until Buck made this great point.

BUT, if Lesnar does come in "fight" shape, I'd expect Lesnar would get carwin to the ground as soon as possible and control him for the entire fight. Basically, what GSP did to Dan Hardy.

Oh, And Im taking Carwin, if I didn't make that clear

That is the same concern most have is ring rust. I don't really care who wins, and I gather many hate Lesnar because he was a WWF wrestler. I don't follow pro wrestling so he does not matter to me. I think you nailed it as far as Lesnar bulldoging him and keeping it on the ground. If he can do that I like his chances. I heard him talking about Carwin not wanting to trade punches with him. I think he is just talking smack because if he stands toe to toe with this guy, Carwin's chances improve and his lessen IMO I am still taking Lesnar~

I don't hate Lesnar. I actually like him, be brings great entertainment value to the sport. As far as his smack goes, maybe he's just trying to play Carwin, make Carwin focus on his stand up rather than his ground game even though Lesnar probably has no intent to stand with him at all. Lesnar is not a great boxer, standing with Carwin is suicide for him IMO.

What should be interesting is how much damage can Carwin do to Lesnar from the bottom. That guy has tremendous power while punching in short distances. And I don't think Carwin will be able to push Lesnar against the fence and pound him either.

Carwin will have to box with him, defend his takedowns and be prepared to do damage from the bottom. I hope Carwin has his Cardio up.

I disagree but would not be shocked if you are right. Carwin certainly has the ability to clock him out. That said that only happens is Lesnar is willing to stand and trade, that and don't kid yourself Lesnar has the power to check Carwin at the door also. I see this going to the mat quickly and if the ring rust allows it and Carwin can stuff the take down he may indeed knock him out. I am betting against Carwin because I don't think he gets the chance to to hit and ends up on bottom and running out of gas~

Entertainment value. He's from the WWF, so he understands putting on a good show. Hence all the trash talk etc. Which is why i like him. Sports are better when you add the drama of trash talk. He has the ego and attitude to do it. I think he'll want too. But if he gets rocked early, he'll put that shit to the side and trade it in for some ground and pound.

Unlike GSP, who does not understand the value of entertainment.

As a side note...

Mir's got a pretty bright future as a commentator when he's done. He's really good on the WEC shows. Florian's very good too. (And he's already done some work for ESPN.)

The one annoying thing about Mir is the fact that he continually says "he gots to" rather than "He's got to". Minor, but annoying.

CoMoChief

he doesnt want to get into a randy couture situation. i cant say that i blame him. he also thinks dana white is a jackass and i also agree

UFC offered him the biggest most insane ($$$) MMA contract for a handful of fights. I know a lot of people don't like Dana White, but Bud Selig is the biggest fucking idiot in all of pro league commish's and you don't see MLB players saying "I don't like Selig, I'm going to Japan to play, it's a great league w/ great players".

In Strikeforce, since they're so small, just like Affliction, are pretty much basing most of their programming off of Fedor, whom by the way pretty much gets to fight on his terms and nothing else but his terms.

Put it this way, I've heard Lesnar say many times that he'd love to fight Fedor. Not once have I heard Fedor say that he would love to fight Lesnar. Because he doesn't. He knows he's much smaller and much weaker. In a cage, Brock would smother him up against the cage wall and control the fight.

Fedor, nor his bullshit M1 Global company want to see "The Greatest MMA HW Fighter in the World" lable to get taken away although that lable is fading away as he chooses to stay in Strikeforce. The russians want to protect his image.

Lesnar doesn't have a single knock out to his credit. There is a reason for that. His stand up is sub-par and Carwin will expose that. There is no chance in hell that Lesnar stands and trades with Carwin because he'll get KTFO in the first minute.

Lesnar laying on top of Carwin is quite funny. Couture had no problem standing up from Brock being on top over and over again. And Carwin has a great wrestling back ground as well. This one won't get out of the first unless Lesnar simply does some lay n pray.

You act like my reply was blowing you off and totally disagreeing with yours :spock: I think you are underrating Lesnar and that is fine. I am sure you can get all the action you want taking Carwin in a first round knock out. I am sure you could get book with great odds for as much as you can afford. That said I am not a fan of Lesnar or Carwin and I would take a pass on any serious action. I might take some light action against the first round knockout by Carwin :)

If Lesnar had been fighting my take would be different (maybe). I think Lesnar having a year off hurts him a lot.

Lesnar has poor stand up skills. He has relied exclusively on his ability to "bully" guys because of his size. Well he won't be able to do that with Carwin in all likelihood. I also think that Carwin probably knows that Lesnar is going to want to take this to the ground and will force him to stand. Or at least, that will be his game plan.

I don't totally count out Lesnar at all. He has freaky skills for a guy his size. However when you factor in the ring rust, the fact that he's fighting a guy his size that hits like a mac truck and has excellent stand up, well that's a lot going against him. I think Brock even without the ring rust would be looking at his toughest fight ever. Throw in the above factors and I can't see how he would really be favored (but I think he will be because of "name").

If Lesnar had been fighting my take would be different (maybe). I think Lesnar having a year off hurts him a lot.

Lesnar has poor stand up skills. He has relied exclusively on his ability to "bully" guys because of his size. Well he won't be able to do that with Carwin in all likelihood. I also think that Carwin probably knows that Lesnar is going to want to take this to the ground and will force him to stand. Or at least, that will be his game plan.

If you read through this thread I have said pretty much the same thing. I am however picking Lesnar because of speed and his ability to bulldog opponents. I would not put any real money on it, A. because I really do not know, B. I really do not care~

No I read it but what I am saying is, his ability to "bulldog" guys is because the size difference has been so dramatic. Now he's fighting a guy that is near his own size so I think that won't play a part.

It would not surprise me a bit to see Brock get the takedown, control and pound Carwin out.

But, Lesnar needs to be put in his place a bit, IMO. It shouldn't be this easy... for anyone.

It's not like the guy wouldn't bounce back. A lot of fighters do, after truly being beaten for the first time. (Lesnar considers the loss to Mir a fluke.)

I wanna see him get KTFO... and see how he responds.

MadMax
06-21-2010, 09:10 PM
Lesnar doesn't have a single knock out to his credit. There is a reason for that. His stand up is sub-par and Carwin will expose that. There is no chance in hell that Lesnar stands and trades with Carwin because he'll get KTFO in the first minute.

Lesnar laying on top of Carwin is quite funny. Couture had no problem standing up from Brock being on top over and over again. And Carwin has a great wrestling back ground as well. This one won't get out of the first unless Lesnar simply does some lay n pray.



You seem to be an asshole but I'll say Lesnar does brings Carwin to the ground and beats the shit out of him. I actually like both fighters, but you are an asshole so I pick Lesnar.

UFC offered him the biggest most insane ($$$) MMA contract for a handful of fights. I know a lot of people don't like Dana White, but Bud Selig is the biggest fucking idiot in all of pro league commish's and you don't see MLB players saying "I don't like Selig, I'm going to Japan to play, it's a great league w/ great players".

In Strikeforce, since they're so small, just like Affliction, are pretty much basing most of their programming off of Fedor, whom by the way pretty much gets to fight on his terms and nothing else but his terms.

Put it this way, I've heard Lesnar say many times that he'd love to fight Fedor. Not once have I heard Fedor say that he would love to fight Lesnar. Because he doesn't. He knows he's much smaller and much weaker. In a cage, Brock would smother him up against the cage wall and control the fight.

Fedor, nor his bullshit M1 Global company want to see "The Greatest MMA HW Fighter in the World" lable to get taken away although that lable is fading away as he chooses to stay in Strikeforce. The russians want to protect his image.

ROFL, so the best fighter shouldnt be able to fight on his terms? and the UFC wanted to lock him up for 6 fights. i'm pretty sure he would do a 1 or 2 fight deal.

BUT that would have him going back to russia with the UFC championship belt

That is why most want to see this. Lesnar has some Clay/Ali in his persona. Some will pay to root for him, most others will pay to see him get his ass kicked. He really does not bother me and his cocky act adds interest. He is fighting a guy that has the size that he cannot just run over. That said I have never seen a man that big move as fast or have the type of agility he displays. Carwin has the striking ability to end it with a shot. It is a much needed match up because the biggest badest sells. That is what happened to boxing the heavyweights became a group of also rans. The lighter weight fighters are fun to watch but if you want to draw the casual fan it takes the big boys in a hyped match IMO

I'm not even a big Fedor fan dumbass. I think his management is the problem and that he has surrounded himself with people who don't have cementing his legacy in mind.

That said, the guy has crushed virtually everyone that he's been put up against. Until someone beats him, he's the best.

Yeah, tell us all how Fedor has claimed that he wants to fight the best. Because CLEARLY he doesn't.

Always. Because big guys bring devastation. Little guys are fun to watch and they are scrappy, but people want to see people get knocked out. And there is a reason why size DOES matter in a fight, and why there are more knockouts at 205 and HW than all the other divisions combined.

I have never liked Lesnar. Even before his stupid antics after the Mir win. I understand hating to lose, but Mir said nothing that deserved that kind of disrespect and the fans pay his paycheck and he flipped them off for booing. Well yeah they booed you acted like an asshole. I think Lesnar is a complete asshole and I honestly hope that Carwin causes him to have re constructive facial surgery.

You are most likely to young to remember Clay/Ali in his prime. He was an arrogant, brash, disrespectful asshole. He was hated and rightfully so. He admitted he molded himself after Gorgeous George a famous pro wrestler from the 50s. He was a womanizing draft dodging blowhard and his religious conversion was laughable. It was amusing to watch the reinvention of Ali into the beloved hero he is thought of today. He sold more pay for view and tickets to people who wanted nothing more than to see him get his lippy ass kicked. It is an age old shtick and Lesnar is proving as is Mayweather is in boxing that it still sells today~

It definitely sells, there's no doubt about that. As you noted, a lot of people will buy just to see if Lesnar gets crushed. I'm one of them. I wanted to see him get smashed into oblivion and I find it hard to fathom how anyone could root for the guy. I could understand how back in the day the black community could get behind Ali. But Lesnar isn't a minority with racial tensions in the air. He's just an asshole. And I can't wait to watch Carwin cave his face in.

Ask Fraizer about how the black community feels about Ali. He fucked over one of the few who reached out to help him. He painted Joe as a uncle Tom when nothing was farther the truth. People can buy the myth of Ali all they want. He was an asshole plain and simple. As far as the fight I am rooting for a good one nothing more~

All the UFC guys he's fought have been way past their prime.

The problem is that until just about a year ago, the HW division in MMA was absolute garbage. Now it's getting better, and is the strongest its ever been.

Shit even Fedor is trying to duck from fighting Oversteem because of Roid issues? Even though he tested clean? The entire Fedor camp is a fucking joke. Until he fights in the UFC, his legacy will continue to deminish IMO. That's where the good guys fight, and when they're no longer good, they no longer fight in the UFC.

All the UFC guys he's fought have been way past their prime.

The problem is that until just about a year ago, the HW division in MMA was absolute garbage. Now it's getting better, and is the strongest its ever been.

Shit even Fedor is trying to duck from fighting Oversteem because of Roid issues? Even though he tested clean? The entire Fedor camp is a fucking joke. Until he fights in the UFC, his legacy will continue to deminish IMO. That's where the good guys fight, and when they're no longer good, they no longer fight in the UFC.

This is the thing that bothers me...not the debate you guys are in. One of the things that hurt boxing was the seperation of fighters. The WBA,WBO,IBF and a list of others that had their own list of contenders and avoided allowing the two best to get in the ring. Sure it happened from time to time but the promoters figured out having multible champions equaled more paydays. Their greed hampered the sport along with several other factors that do not need to be talked about in this thread. I hate to think the same will happen to MMA, but it is likely it will. There is way too much money to be made in this growing sport. People have made untold richies off men sheding blood in a ring.

Ohhhh you mean Alistair Overeem? This is why you faggots should stop posting about MMA. You don't have a god damned clue about who and what you're talking about.

Big nog was 6-7 years ago. Cro Cop is ok but he hasn't exactly lived up to his hype since joining the UFC. Herring is a good win but that was 8 years ago. Goodridge is only a .500 fighter and mark hunt has a losing record. I have no doubt that Fedor is a bad ass. Just how much of a bad ass is up for debate until/if he is willing to fight the fighters who are at the top currently.

You are most likely to young to remember Clay/Ali in his prime. He was an arrogant, brash, disrespectful asshole. He was hated and rightfully so. He admitted he molded himself after Gorgeous George a famous pro wrestler from the 50s. He was a womanizing draft dodging blowhard and his religious conversion was laughable. It was amusing to watch the reinvention of Ali into the beloved hero he is thought of today. He sold more pay for view and tickets to people who wanted nothing more than to see him get his lippy ass kicked. It is an age old shtick and Lesnar is proving as is Mayweather is in boxing that it still sells today~

Amen. Whites are still intimadated by that jerk.

Duck Dog
06-22-2010, 06:52 PM
It definitely sells, there's no doubt about that. As you noted, a lot of people will buy just to see if Lesnar gets crushed. I'm one of them. I wanted to see him get smashed into oblivion and I find it hard to fathom how anyone could root for the guy. I could understand how back in the day the black community could get behind Ali. But Lesnar isn't a minority with racial tensions in the air. He's just an asshole. And I can't wait to watch Carwin cave his face in.

I am one of these people.

The HW division looks more stacked but the truth is, we're not 100% sure how good a lot of these guys really are. Fedor beat enough guys in their prime that his ability should never be in question. He doesn't need to beat a 1 dimensional fat guy in Lesnar to prove he's great to me. He's submitted or knocked out almost everyone he's fought and outside of 1 BS ruling, is undefeated.

Would I like to see Fedor in UFC? Definitely. But if he never comes to UFC it doesn't diminish him as the greatest HW fighter ever to me.

When have I ever said I was a know it all MMA guy.

I can tell you how this fight is going to go......so can about a million other people.

Carwin will look to knockout Lesnar.....because standing up w/ him is really his only chance. Carwin obviously is the better striker.

But Brock will take the fight to the ground, because (gasp) that's his bread and butter and that's what gives him the best chance to win, esp w/ a guy like Carwin. Lesnar controls the fight on the ground and grounds and pounds....thats what he does, and once that happens, Brock's gonna end up winning the fight. People think this is going to last only in the first rd. I don't think it will be that way, because I dont think Lesnar will get knocked out because he wont let the fight stand up right. He will take it to the ground as soon as the bell rings.

Doesn't take some MMA nut to figure that one out. You're fucking dumber than I thought.

You ****ing idiot it's not just people on msg boards and people who "just started watching MMA" that are saying this about Fedor.....UFC fighters themselves are saying the exact thing. But hey, don't listen to them...I guess they also don't know what they're talking about.

And by the way....for you to slam people who "just started watching MMA" newsflash!!! MMA is still considered to be a new sport, and has finally gained enough popularity where it's hitting media mainstream. So for you to bash people (if you wanna call it that, we here at CP just call it whining) because they just started watching MMA is borderline retarded, because the sport is just now (well, within the last 4-5 yrs) getting popular. MMA is still mostly watched by people that range from ages 18-35, young males. Most people older than that still view this sport as barbaric human cockfighting, which is why some states still outlaw the sport.

And if you wanna call yourself a true MMA pioneer because you watched so much MMA before anyone else on here did, then I guess it's whatever makes you sleep better at night, but nobody here really gives a shit. Just sayin'.

i have every UFC from the beginning, i also have evey pride FC, most kotc, and quite a few strikeforce ( not to mention quite a few other promotions) i've seen most every fight more than once.


some people have followed the sport longer, i would think that would make them more knowledgeable than someone that heard about chuck liddell and started watching.

like i said chuck was a BIG thing in the ufc and dana thought he would walk right through the middleweight tourney. hell dana even BET on him to win it.

guess what? it didnt happen.


IMO arona, shogun, wandy, or rampage would have beaten him at that time.


it's funny that this sport blew up after forrest v bonner. that fight was exciting right?

well guess what?
those types of fights were the norm in pride with the card penalties. one card you lose 10 percent of your purse, and IIRC 2 was 20 %. that gave the fighters incentive to actually fight rather than lay and hope to get a decision

i have every UFC from the beginning, i also have evey pride FC, most kotc, and quite a few strikeforce ( not to mention quite a few other promotions) i've seen most every fight more than once.


some people have followed the sport longer, i would think that would make them more knowledgeable than someone that heard about chuck liddell and started watching.

like i said chuck was a BIG thing in the ufc and dana thought he would walk right through the middleweight tourney. hell dana even BET on him to win it.

guess what? it didnt happen.


IMO arona, shogun, wandy, or rampage would have beaten him at that time.


it's funny that this sport blew up after forrest v bonner. that fight was exciting right?

well guess what?
those types of fights were the norm in pride with the card penalties. one card you lose 10 percent of your purse, and IIRC 2 was 20 %. that gave the fighters incentive to actually fight rather than lay and hope to get a decision

Awesome, nothing like the Old days of Pride. I liked watching K-1 a lot also. Used to like watching my man Ernesto hoost and Jerome Lebanner.

Yup. When Michael McDonald was fighting I didn't miss much K-1. That dude was nails.

And the old days of Pride, to me, are still the best days of MMA and UFC will never be able to touch it. When Wandy was walking through people and was 225 pounds (I could give a crap if he was on roids at the time). Crocop was at his peak, Fedor, Randleman, Coleman, Page, Shogun, dude Pride was the shit.

The majority of people that I know that follow MMA now started following after the first season of TUF and that Griffin/Bonnar fight. They have no idea about the history of it all. That's one reason Forrest has such a following and people still think, moronically, that he's a top 205 fighter.

He's the "name" in this thing. I still don't see it getting out of the first round and see Carwin blasting him. But with guys that big anything can happen.

Agreed I have stayed out of the mix as I am pretty new to MMA. I grew up boxing and wrestling. I used to spar with some guys that were into martial arts but we kick boxed. They taught me self defense moves to end confrontations but it would not be allowed in competition. I wish this type of fighting exsited when I was young but I am too old to play such rough games now. It is kind of funny because while watching they talk about guillotines, rear naked choke holds and triangles back in my day we just called it choking a guy out or cutting his air. It is a pretty cool sport and I enjoy watching it~

I believe Carwin has all the tools to beat Lesnar. He's freakishly huge and strong in his own right. He was a successful wrestler in college although not on the same level as Lesnar and he has much better stand up.

FWIW I truly believe also that Cain Velasquez will soon be the heavyweight champion and will remain there for an extended period.

Because he's basically saying that Carwin, who has finished everyone he's faced in the 1st round, has to depend on a lucky punch to win. That's fucking stupid. Carwin got lucky 12 other times???????? Second, this is the first time that Lesnar will be facing someone his own size. I don't buy into the theory that Brock is going to be able to take down Carwin "at will" and hold him down. Not when a 220 pound Randy Couture was able to get up fairly easily from under Brock.

But a 255 Frank Mir could not. Im not saying his punch will be lucky, but he's going to be hard pressed to get a good shot in. Lesnar doesn't wanna box with Carwin. We all know why. He isn't stupid.

Lesnar will want to take Carwin to the mat ASAP. I don't think he'll be able to do it right off that bat; i think the better portion of the first round will be fought standing against the cage. But, eventually, he'll get him down. And Carwin will probably have a hard time getting out of it.

And Frank Mir doesn't have the pedigree in wrestling that Carwin does either. It's a stupid comparison. And Mir was 245 pounds for that fight. Not 255. And Carwin is 275.

I haven't dismissed Lesnar as possibly winning at all. I said with heavyweights anything can happen. And Lesnar is a world class athlete. However if you're going to give an opinion and it's not an educated one, then don't argue about your opinion. If a guy says that Lesnar will win because of the size factor that doesn't make a damn bit of sense, seeing how Carwin and LEsnar are roughly the same size. Or that Carwin will need a lucky punch. People like this will get their comments taken apart because well, they are dumb.

Lesnar could easily come in and take it to the ground and do his usual lay on a guy for as long as it takes to tire him out routine and win. But I don't find it likely when you put it all together. Two guys, same size, similar backgrounds, the difference being that CArwin hits like a fucking freight train and LEsnar has shit stand up ability. So if everything cancels everything out, what are you left with? If Carwin keeps it standing then this fight will be over early. Lesnar's only chance is to take CArwin down and control him there. And I don't see that happening without LESNAR landing a lucky punch.

However if you're going to give an opinion and it's not an educated one, then don't argue about your opinion. If a guy says that Lesnar will win because of the size factor that doesn't make a damn bit of sense, seeing how Carwin and LEsnar are roughly the same size. Or that Carwin will need a lucky punch. People like this will get their comments taken apart because well, they are dumb.

Lesnar could easily come in and take it to the ground and do his usual lay on a guy for as long as it takes to tire him out routine and win. But I don't find it likely when you put it all together. Two guys, same size, similar backgrounds, the difference being that CArwin hits like a ****ing freight train and LEsnar has shit stand up ability. So if everything cancels everything out, what are you left with? If Carwin keeps it standing then this fight will be over early. Lesnar's only chance is to take CArwin down and control him there. And I don't see that happening without LESNAR landing a lucky punch.

The only thing I have said about Lesnar is I have never seen a guy that big as quick or with that type of agility. I think he will be a handful for any heavyweight because he has the speed and agility of a much lighter man. That sure as hell does not mean a guy with Carwins striking ability cannot give him a nap~

And I agreed with all of that. 100%. So I'm not sure what you're arguing with me about.

What I thought was silly was for dude to say that Carwin needed luck or that Lesnar would win due to size. When Carwin has finished everyone in the first round and is bigger than Lesnar. Neither takes on the fight made any sense.

We are good, most seem to think Lesnar has the power advantage as far as bulldoging. As far as the weight it means a lot and it means nothing. It depends on many varables. There are guys who have to cut weight to make fights because they are dropping down to a lower class or they put on large ammounts of weight between fights. Raberto Duran is a case in point. He often would swell to 185 lbs or more and have to cut weight...a lot! to fight. H

Yeah I see the weight thing as a neutral factor. Both guys are similar size. Both guys are powerful guys. So I think it comes back to this.......

1. Brock wins IF he's THAT much better than Carwin on the ground. Meaning, Brock can truly hold Carwin down and go GnP on him. Some say he had no problem holding Herring and Mir down. But Neither of those guys have the wrestling background that Carwin does. Couture had no problem getting up from underneath Brock. Now, Couture is like a man amongst boys in terms of wrestling, but I don't think Carwin is a slouch obviously. So again, can Brock hold him down? Hard to say.

2. Carwin wins if he keeps it standing. Brock has no knockouts to his credit and his standup is about as amateur as one can get at that level. Lesnar's camp may be trying to work in a strategy where Brock does in fact stand up for a while. Long enough to get Carwin to believe he's going to stand, so that he can work the shoot. This is what I believe you will see happen. Brock will stand long enough to make Carwin believe that he's willing to do that, then he will work the shoot. If Carwin can work his sprawl and keep it on the feet, the match won't go on very long because Carwin will knock him out if it turns into a stand up match.

I think that covers about everything.

Roberto Duran is a case in point. He often would swell to 185 lbs or more and have to cut weight...a lot! to fight. He would have nothing but fat to lose. Lesnar holds 265 lbs and that appears to be his natural (in shape weight) I have no idea if Carwin holds 275 lbs natural or if he tends to fight weight like Duran. Weight and power are two different things~

Carwin started the camp for the fight against Mir at 300 pounds. He started this camp at 275 and has stayed near that. That's from the horses mouth. :D

The only reason I gave you a hard time is that you seem very knowledgeable but tend to respond in anger. I understand someone saying something you feel is silly but you should lighten up IMO I have a huge advantage over you...I have to proof read! it gives me a chance to cool off :D

Fedor is weak sauce. The last top flight Heavy he fought was years ago. He's just a puppet for the Russian Mob. I think if Carwin lays his hands on Brock it's all over now baby blue. I'll take the engineer over Mr. Sable.

For whatever reason Ken gave Bas fits. And Bas was a bad mother chicken.

I watched some of Bas' old pan creas fights...he was a bad mother trucker!!! He narrated the videos & would call out when he was going to deliver things like liver shot knockouts.

Nah, no problem bro, I get amped up here sometimes when i'm drinking. It's all good and maybe I come off as being an ass and don't really mean to be. And to Guardian, you come off as being an arrogant "know it all" jerk in this thread so I'll just apologize on my part as I did kinda attack you. As for the long hair it's been a part of me my whole life and most can see past that and know i'm a good person.

Lesnar played for the Minnesota Vikings, where he created controversy in some games by starting minor fights and got heat from the Kansas City Chiefs for a sack on quarterback Damon Huard, which drew a big response from the crowd.[71] Huard was hit hard and had to go to the sidelines and sit out a few plays.[71] After playing in the preseason, Lesnar ended up being a late cut.[12] He declined an invitation to play as a representative of the Vikings in NFL Europa because he wanted to be closer to home with his family

Well votes are in and the Planet predicts Lesnar to win. Most likely unaware that his claim to fame in the NFL was a cheap shot against the Chiefs LMAO
