He actually predicted Heath Herring was going to kick Lesnars ass also because Heath had better "credentials", he couldn't have been more wrong about that one either.
Yea I heard the credentials line as well. You know who else has alot of credentials? Travis Fulton, I wonder if Scurs thinks he would beat lesnar. After all Fulton has about 100 MMA fights.
I could care less what Dana says, I'm not a little girl who get's my pantiess in a knot when Dana is mean. But I watch the UFC for the fights and competition to see who is the best, you should worry a little less what Dana says or does unless your really that sensative.:deal
I really couldn't give a **** what Dana says or does, I don't know why anyone else does, it's like he's insulted them personally or something! In the end they put out the best MMA product in the world so if you choose to not watch it because of some misguided loyalties to 1 fighter then it's your loss. But please for the sake of us who do enjoy watching great MMA in the UFC, stop trying to ram your beliefs down our throats!
Because Fedor's career is defined against the son of a living MMA legend? You sir are an idiot. If your going to attempt to discredit Fedor im sure you can at least try and do better than that instead of towing the company line like the blind Canadian you are.
You guys are unbelieveable. Honestly you just ignore the fact that guys like Monson Yvel whomever have been doing this for a minute and you swing from Lesnar nuts because he's big strong and athletic!! And you have the brazen audacity to call yourselves fans?!?!?!?!:roll: Well good news folks Pudianowski is on his way to MMA so you can get excited about that too. Simpletons utter simpletons because no one stands a chance against big bad Brock... **** thats more than laughable.
Yes you're right credentials mean nothing in this sport. Just forget about them. All you need is big muscles steroids a meathead attitude and a modicum of athleticism. Let me guess your a fan of Lashley and Bob Sapp? Or they dont fit the bill? What about Mariusz? You excited about him yet? I mean surely Lashly can beat Herring?
Ahh revisionism is your forte i see. So let me see... Brock looses his first fight in the UFC ( which i expected him to steal roll Mir) but gets kneebarred. Herring a big heavy and a solid veteran who has seen better days and was a decent striker then automatically doesnt have the credentials nor skill to beat Brock who was 1-1? But you predicted that right? You had so much faith in a guy who has NO MMA background ZERO MMA experience other than his wrestling in D1 but size means everything so **** skill experience or credentials. Conversely this allows guys like you to rubbish Fedor's fight against Choi a bonafide striker in K1 and a mountain of a man at 7ft 2. This is the type of moronic fanboy reasoning that will constantly get a reminder from me wether you like it or not. Brock is NOT tried and tested yet and his title as the UFC champion frankly is VERY flattering. But fanboys such as yourself marvel so much at his size and athleticism but then dont do the same wih a guy like Lashleyand then use twisted reasoning to trash Fedor's opponents like Choi when Choi was signed to be Brocks second fight (but of course you conviniently forget that fact).
Not only that, after Lesnar dominated all 900 seconds of that fight suddenly of was "a total joke, set up for Lesnar to win.". Even worse after that, when I pointed out how Herring had beat Kerr and Erikson he got even worse, saying Herring was hamdpicked to lose easily rather that. Be a test, despite the fact that Herring beat two very similar fighters to Lesnar. He is the height of absurdity and hypocrisy; first saying how bad Herring was going to kick Lesnar's ass, then after the total destruction saying Herring was a can and only sent out to lose despite his wins over similar wrestlers. Finally he laughs about Brocks record compared to Fedor's over the same time period; despite Mir and Couture both beating Sylvia, the whole Nog beating Sylvia but getting finshed (which nodody in the world has ever done, including Fedor i 3 tries, although Nog was admitedly much better then) and both being at least as good as Arlovski. Absolutley the worst poster in the forum; at least the geniuenly ignorant posters aren't so agenda driven and biased.
Credentials mean a ton, but compared to the obvious talent Nd ability Lesnar has, they mean a lot less. If credentials decided fights, nobody would ever becomes rising star; vegas and other people who set betting lines and live off picking fights obviosuly agree. You simply hate everthing about the UFC, logic, facts, and just common sense be damned. Not only did you first write off lesnar beacuaee he had no credentials, you refuse to acknowlede that he had gained incredible ones, including the belt of the most credie organization in the world, by beating two reigning UFC champs. On top of that first you say how they are going to destroy Lesnar, then you immediatley dismiss them as terrible despite being better than Fedors last two wins.
This is so typical; you say Lesnar had no Mma background, but then tell us all about Choi, who has a background of Bobby Ologun MMA. Lesnars wreslting backround pre mma, training, and physical gifts are all better than Choi. Choi was a decent kickboxer, which does not translate to MMA half as well as being a national champion wrestler. Chois Ssrieum wreslting is nothing compared to brocks, not to mention Choi doesn't have the speed or functional strength of Lesnar; what he does have is a tumor that kept him from fighting in the US. You have the balls to say somebody else is a revionsist when first you talk up Herring, then you **** all over him as an easy win for Lesnsr set up by the UFC. The. You refuse to acknowledge him as a credtial for lesnar; just as you do for beating Randy and Mir. If you can beat champions right away, getting your idea of credentials (mid range fights that are just numbers on a record) is a total waste of time. Lesnar has credtials against world class opposition; wasting his time beating lesser opposition is unneccesary. Of course you still **** on his wins, despite what they've done against Fedors recent opponents. So in your mind he needs to regress and fight lower opponents, not to mention his world class wins that were going to stomp him actually suck once he beats them, so he gets no credit fir that either. Yes, I picked Brock over Herring; I pointed out what he did to Kerr and Erikson Nd still picked Lesnar because I can see talent when it is so obvious. To compare Lesnar to Choi is such a stretch. Choi was a kickboxer with decent success, and a Korean folk wrestling background that isn't very MMA oriented; Brock had a juco and D1 wrestling background which has shown time and time again to be a great base. It isn't just his size that impress, it is his speed and abilty to dominate opponents with his functional strengh from wrestling; Choi is very big, strong, and tall but not at all as physically suited for MMA. Not to mention Fedor is the world champ, it world have been Brocks debut. Fedor is a champion and should have been fighting other champion level guys. Which as much as you hate to admit, Lesnar undeniably is with a belt he earned by TKOing two world class, reigning champions in Randy and Mir. Just to show you how biased you are, look at Joe Warren; he is essentially a small Lesnar. Has two great wins, shown amazing MMA abilty despite no previous credientials, and is so obviously talented that everybody can tell he is a great fighter worthy of fighting anybody, with a good chance to win too. But since Warren isn't in the UFC you don't **** all over him; you might even recognize, with the rest of the world that he is already one of the best fighters in that divison, and he doesn't even have a belt yet unlike Lesnar.
