Even though he loss, he was handling Brock pretty well if you look at the size disadvantage and if Randy held up throughout the fight, he could of won the fight. He showed that he clearly has better wrestling skills and might have the best wrestling skills in MMA history becuase Brock also has good wrestling skills, was stronger than Randy and very athletic and Couture was still getting the best of him in the grappling department.
This thread should be titled, Lesnar looked bad and still became champion. He looked very sluggish out there from the outset, very nervous..And no nothing that Randy did physically made him sluggish...Lesnar just didnt have the bounce and was very tight. As a matter of fact, Randy did exactly what he needed to do, just cant handle Brock thats all.
I agree with Canibus. To be honest... I told all of my friends that I was afraid Randy would misjudge Brock's reach and quickness, and that Brock would catch him with a right hand, and pounce on him. However... I thought that it would happen very early in the fight. With the way the fight was going, it looked like Randy had everything going in his direction. Brock was starting to look weathered, and Randy looked like his gameplan was working. Then.,,, he misjudged Brock's reach and quickness and took a shot behind the ear. Randy did well... honestly better than I was expecting. Brock did very well too, considering the way that the fight went and the huge experience gap.
Well hes Randy Couture he was the Champ and a legend I suppose the ref felt he was deserving of a chance to recover.
Yeah i noticed......that Brock didnt look good in winning. His potential his huge........think he will lose to Nog though (no shame in that) most likely beat Mir in a rematch. Whilst strong..............never underestimate.........skill in grappling....as randy showed he can be contained.
