I understand about the main event, but the guy has always has been legit. He might be an asshole, but he's got a hell of a lot of skill, prior career
choices aside. But I really liked the fights. Hazelett-McCrory was the highlight for me, but all the fights were action-packed. This was one of the
best PPV events in recent memory.

Is this all because the guy was a pro wrestler for a while?
The guy was a beast as a wrestler in college. From Wikipedia: Lesnar finished his amateur career as a two-time NJCAA All-American, two-time NCAA
All-American, two-time Big Ten Conference Champion, and the 2000 NCAA heavyweight champion with a record of 106-5 overall in four years of
college.
He quit being a pro wrestler to try his hand at pro football.... despite never playing football in high school or college. He walked into practice
for the Vikings. They cut him before the season started but also offered to let him play in NFL Europe. How many people are so fucking athletic and
monstrous that they can pick up a new sport and get an offer to play pro almost overnight?
Yeah, fine. He was a pro wrestler. It's fake. But he still fucked up Captain America last night. I thought the hammer-fists on a downed Randy
didn't look like they'd do much, but Randy already said he was out cold from the punch that dropped him.
Lesnar's legit. Once upon a time, Kurt Angle was legit... before a couple of neck surgeries and some substance problems. Beyond that, I know of no
pro wrestlers who will possibly make an impact in MMA. The only exception is going to be the guys who were legit college wrestlers prior to going
"pro".
Oh, and Lesnar and Angle are both douchebags, but I think part of that is to gain public interest like they did/do in pro wrestling. Phil Baroni is
guilty of that shit in MMA.

I totally agree with Random. So he was in the WWF? He walked out at the peak of super stardom to try a new sport. That takes some serious balls.
He's said in interviews if the UFC was more established when he came out of college, he probably would have gone straight there.
I don't see how he's a much bigger douche bag than a large portion of pro MMA fighters. We're talking about a sport where bad tattoos and raised pick
ups are rampant.

lesnar couldn't breathe in the first round. i think he's fucked. i don't like him either and it's not cause he was a pro wrestler cause i'm a pro
wrestling fan. i just never liked him and he won't hold that belt for long.

I finally watched it. He was winded in that first round, but didn't seem to be sucking wind during the break, and was OK in the second. He's a smart
fighter, and has improved his faults between fights. I'm sure the cardio thing will be a huge emphasis, as well as the time he took to capitalize on
big hits.

He needs to prove he deserves the title by beating on someone besides a senior citizen.

I'd agree with that, if the senior citizen wasn't Couture. He's obviously not at the top of his game, but he's no Mr Magoo, by far.

This is all the same bullshit people said about all the new rising stars. "yeah he beat couture but that dudes busted, wait till they put him against
X(insert favourite fighter here)"
I dont know the bloke, I dont know what hes like. He might come across as cocky but hes young and at his 4th MMA fight hes now the world heavyweight
champion. Dude, if I found 20 dollars on the ground I'd be cocky for the rest of the day. Imagine what he feels like.
Guy is a legit hard man, hes a giant fucking killing machine. All it means is that we have some great fights coming up when they start throwing more
hard men at him.

Fedor is amazing but if we could find someone to test Lesnars chin before hand a Lesnar/Fedor fight would do millions.

My only problem with Lesnar is that he's a whiner if things don't go his way. Beyond that, it's obvious he's been training his ass off and working
hard to prove he's a legit fighter.

nah not yet
i read a recent interview with dana where he said he was going to do everything in his power to set up fedor vs randy cuz its a fight that needs to
happen.
he seems to have changed his tune a bit reguarding fedor.
i guess time will tell.
if affliction goes under like many are predicting, maybe it will indeed happen

Cro Cop has seen his day in the spotlight. Lesnar would kill him now.

Couple of responses to the thread...
Fedor-Lesnar might do millions in Japan, but not the US. Japan loves Fedor and freakshow fights (i.e. Lesnar), plus I think Lesnar did some pro
wrestling in Japan. In the US, nobody but real MMA fans have a clue who Fedor is, aside from the commercials in the last EliteXC show on CBS.
Fedor-Arlovski is happening in January for Affliction. We're starting to see the old school Arlovski again, and this should be an awesome fight.
Arlovski had a few shitty, boring fights there where he went for decision victories, but he's coming back. Should be good.
Fedor just lost for the first time in, I think, eight years. In sambo. Dude is unreal.
Cro Cop today isn't exciting. Gonzaga ruined that guy. If the old CC comes back like the old Arlovski, great. Otherwise, I can do without. He's
one of those guys who got KTFO once and was never the same. It's sad, too, when he was the second- or third-best fighter in the world not too long
ago.

agreed except for the fact that dana is the modern day vince macmann
the ufc hype machine is huge
they could build up fedor in a matter of weeks and make fedor vs anyone really the biggest fights they have ever had
fedor vs aa is gonna be killer
i honestly hope what i have read about affliction is not true and i hope they pull through with that card
cuz i also heard aleks is cleared to fight on this one and he is my all time fav. fighter
you come at the king....you best not miss

yeah, i'm real happy the rumors about aleks having hep b were bullshit. those came around when CSAC pulled him from a fight right before he went out
for the weigh-in.
i'd like to see affliction make at least two more cards. i want fedor-aa. then i want fedor-barnett. after that, they can collapse, and the ufc can
pick up all the contracts. but those two fights need to happen, and i agree about aleks... and he shouldn't keep fighting on these cards nobody sees.
except for the ones in russia... i got not problem with him fighting in front of his fellow countrymen.
oh, and i forgot that ufc bought pride and got the video catalog, so you're totally right about the hype machine. but that's also why dana bashes
him... because it makes fedor look bad now. but dana also knows the hype machine works the other way and can make it all better if they ever sign
fedor.
