    Just saying....

    Lesnar folded vs Reem. Browne took it, then threw is back @ Reem. Reem folded.

    As time goes on Lesnar looking worse & worse.

    Lesnar turtled up when he got punched in the face. He looked great when he was beating the daylights out of Heath Herring for example. But when someone hit him he ran away: Shane Carwin. Or just got decimated: Overeem.

    In Lesnar's defense he nearly died, lost 50- 60 plus lbs, and was inactive for a long time. He had no business in the ring.

    But really if Lesnar would of got up like Browne did, when Lesnar went down by a knee to the body and that ground assault. Overeem would of been done, he only has 3 minutes of stanima per fight and the worst chin in the UFC.

    Lesnar had a grueling wrestling match with CM Punk yesterday. He's in much better shape now then he was a while back. The energy was there from Lesnar.

    And Overeem has had some bad losses, but he also has some very good skills and punching power. So Lesnar vs Overeem was the kind of a fight where you felt like someone was getting stopped. Overeem has had matches where he's looked strong in the first round but then tires out and gets stopped. The fact that Overeem stopped Lesnar in the first round, well that just shows that Overeem has power. Lesnar himself tired out early in that fight, but in some of Lesnar's other fights he didn't tire out. Maybe that was a sign that he was sick and less than 100% in that fight.

    I dont think he wanted to fight after the shane carwin fight and is blaming it on diverticulitis.

    I would like to see him come back to the UFC and fight big foot but i doubt he will ever be back.

    but yeah he is overated, and not the monster he was marketed as!

    Who has he beaten, his only decent win came over Frank Mir and he was terrible that night, Carwin gassed and he would of had him.

    Kick all the jokes out and make the sport respectable. Lesnar & Overeem shouldn't even have been in the sport.

    Overeem was on lots of steroids against Lesnar. Recently he has stopped or heavily decreased his steroid use and it shows.

    Lesnar still sucks but Overeem was a beast when he was on tons of tech.

    I personally think Lesnar made a really good personal choice.

    Comparing MMA to professional wrestling, I think there's more money in wrestling. The training is not as grueling (i'm sure they still train hard, just not as hard as MMA). Steroid use is unregulated, so wrestlers can train efficiently and recover way better.
    Either way, they're both really tough professions, but i'm gonna say pro wrestling demands a bit less than mma.

    of course wrestling demands a bit less then mma.

    wrestling is fake, as much as i enjoy it, it doesnt take half the mental toughness that real fighting does.

    Hardcore Holly even said the top guys in the WWE like triple h, john cena, goldberg etc are little bitches who cant fight.

    When Lesnar was at his best, he had little stamina. I think his size intimidated several of his early opponents. Once he started getting hit and showing how much he disliked it, or taken deeper in fights and having his stamina tested, opponents saw the blueprint on how to beat him.

    Weather the initial onslaught and watch him gas, or smack him hard and watch him cower.

    Lesnar was around 31 when they fought and Couture was 45. That's a huge difference in age in the fight game.
