    Brock Lesnar nearly lost to a slow and pretty average striker...
    ...and the other "great" UFC heavyweight Carwin gasses badly after half a round... imagine what Overeem or Fedor would do to them.

    I thought both guys looked **** tbh but Brock showed some heart.

    I'd pick Overeem and Fedor over both.

    Carwin is an average striker, massively heavy hands but Brocks strikes land 82% of the tyime as Carwins lands 65%. Obviously he can KO people but its not like he has great striking, just heavy thats all.

    The only thing I saw was corruption. Any other fight and that would have been stopped in the 1st. The UFC is nonsense. And I thought boxing was corrupt.

    People who think boxing is corrupt but MMA need to get their head examined. There is a ton of corruption in MMA.

    Average striker? A man who has ko'd 12 opponents in the first round in a row is what you consider average? Get off the crack crackhead.

    knocking out 12 out of 13 guys in the first round = great striking. Regardless of technique

    It's effective MMA striking, but it's not good on a technical level. Overeem is by far the more technical striker of the three, but I doubt he could pass a ped test.

    Regardless of how others mma fights were or were not stopped, the fact that brock was able to come back and win pretty much indicates that the fight should not have been stopped right?
