Wow everyone, pay attention to Axe Man! He's being wacky again! Hey! Hey! Let's all pay attention! He's so extreme!! Wow!!!
Lesnar is too damn big for the phenom. Yes he beat the **** out of tank abbott but abbott is not even in lesnar's league. Lesnar would take him down easily and ground and pound his azz until the ref stop the fight. Vitor is best at light heavyweight or middleweight. Heavyweights will be too big for him especially that mammoth lesnar.
Axe Man, I disagree with most of your theories. I do here as well, but I'll hold this one in the slightly plausible category. I think that Lesnar really looked shocked when Couture landed a clean punch. There was little on he punch, and yet Brock noticed it. I need to watch the Mir fight again, because I thought Mir caught his attention with a knee or kick just before Lesnar took him down for the win. Belfort has way above average hand speed, and can hurt you when he throws. Problem is, Belfort is kind of a one trick pony when it comes to his attack. Belfort just comes forward, in as straight line, one-twoing all the way. A simple side step seems to disrupt his attack. If Belfort were to clip Brock in his version of the straight blast, and get him to stutter step without grabbing, Belfort would have a chance for the ko. I'm drinking at the moment, and am drawn to the chance of the unlikely. Get over here beautiful lady cover model. I still don't see Belfort stopping Lesnar.
Hard to say, Lesnar could win by boring decision by keeping Vitor down & avoiding the subs or by GNP if he can get to an advantageous position, I think Vitor can KO him with his speed, IMO he has the fastest hands in MMA history. If Belfort came in with the right gameplan he wins, sticking & moving, only unloading hard at the right times, if Lesnar grabs him it will be hard for Vitor to get free due to the size AND wrestling advantage held by Brock.
