    Eddie Sanchez. The guy Eddie Sanchez just beat. Hell, even Cheick Kongo would have been a better matchup. Anyone terrible on the ground would have been absolutely perfect.

    they should've given him someone who's specialty is NOT bjj or judo....
    Mark Hunt had the same problem in his debut (against Yoshida)....It's not the end of the world.

    He'll be back...

    Gan McGee, Tim Sylvia, or Cabbage. Perfect match ups for Brock.

    Agreed. Kongo would have been pounded trough the mat. His take down defense is truly non existent BUT he is a good striker.

    ..i kno it a matter of opinion...but i think they made the right choice..its easier making a career..if you lost in a submission....than if brock has no chin..and got knocked out ..in this fight.....

    so brock did well enuff ...to see he has true potential...to be the man..

    mir...saved his career...by winning.....

    if brock would of got ko'd it would have been bad for business...


    just an opinion
