Let's assume Brock TKO's R1 (GnP) Mir next weekend.

How long before he gets to that huge Tyson-esk "this dude will murder you" level of popularity. Because he has the look for it.

Is it possible?

I'm just a casual MMA follower, but Mir is gonna wreck his shite.

He has the look but in MMA you need to string some serious beat-downs together before you get that reputation. He needs to start ending some more fights badly. Prime example - Anderson Silva doesn't look like a crazy thug criminal with tatoos and shite but that guy is the baddest man on the planet.

He was demolishing Mir last time around and just got a bit too aggressive. That was his second MMA fight ever.

Lesnar is going to break Mir.

I saw some training videos with Mir getting ready for this fight. He seems to be in the best shape that i can remember him being in. He's ready to go and looked more determined than ever. Mir is a cocky sumbitch, so he's looking to destroy Lesnar, because he wants people to see him as not worthy of being where he's at.

With all that said i'm taking Lesnar in the first round.

I doubt lightning strikes twice. Lesnar really should have won the first one, I don't see him losing again.

I hope Cain Velasquez or Fedor Emelianenko gets to fight Lesnar next (if he wins the fight against Mir). Lesnar might be my single least favorite athlete ever. He seems like the worst possible combination of hick and douchebag in the world.

I wouldn't mind seeing him fight Carwin.

Carwin and Velasquez are fighting soon. WHoever wins that i'm sure will get a shot. I'm not sure what Velasquez could do to Lesnar though. He wont just be able to take Lesnar down when he gets jacked up. Carwin atleast is another freakish beast.

This is what I don't see

Lesnar is a better striker
Lesnar is bigger
Wrestling is a wash
BJJ is a wash.

I don't see how Velasquez beats him.

Will Fedor ever sign with UFC?

The money has to be better, right?
