Looked like two untrained if tough kids in a street fight.
Lesnar has no chin absolutely NONE. If Rousey lands clean he's getting KTFO
This. I mean this is a troll thread and if Rhonda got hit by any of these 260lbers she would be a paraplegic the rest of her life. As far as Lesnar goes....he has no chin. That more than anything is why he went back to making real money in wrestling.
He beat an old man who's really a light heavyweight (Couture), a guy who got gassed (Carwin, who lasted one more fight before retiring), a BJJ dude who can't punch(Mir), and the heavyweight doormat at the time (Herring). The heavyweight division has always been the weakest. He came in at the right time and won the belt in a weak division because he's athletic and huge. I agree though, I think he's kicking himself for not getting into MMA sooner. He was just born at the wrong time. Angle too. Him and Angle with their wrestling backgrounds would have been killers.
Right now all the men in UFC are weak. There's nobody with the media charm and skills to back it up. The old guard is retired, and the hanger-ons are slipping away. I'm still waiting for a GSP return....crickets? Wasn't Sonnen supposed to be greater than The Greatest?
Rousey is getting this push mostly because UFC was slipping away. Still, it's better than 99.99999% of what boxing has to offer.
