    THe thing is, I see Gonzaga as one of the few guys in the sport (let alone the UFC) that poses a real threat to Lesnar. Not so much as a style match-up (Gonzaga is one of those black belts who gets hit in the face and becomes a white belt, I think), but hes just one of a couple that are on a similar talent level to Lesnar. he has a few weapons he can hurt Brock with; most fighters have none.

    If GG can strike, clinch and grapple with Brock and tire out those oxygen hungry muscles, he has a great chance to KO him. As we saw against Carwin (before he got KTFO)he has decent wrestling, and while hes not going to be shooting a double leg on Brock in this lifetime, he can be somewhat competitive). If he ends up on his back for too long though, he'd quickly quit or be KTFO. He has less chance of submitting the big guy than Mir.
