I see Florian spending most of the fight on his back trying to cut Joe with elbows.

Also, I really think the main event could go either way(especially being five rounds). I went with Lesnar because I just don't see Randy muscling him up against the fence like he does to everyone else.

I won't be able to watch the event though so you guys enjoy.

My thoughts exactly. You take away a guys main weapon and it isn't going to be the same fight.

I think Kenny either finishes him standing or catches Joe in a triangle or some other sub, probably from the bottom. I do think Joe will be on top if it goes to the ground. Kenflo is always better then I give him credit for though and Joe always seems to be worse. That is why I am taking Florian.

I'd laugh if Big Bad Brock had a glass jaw and Randy cracked him just one time. I think if Randy makes it to the third, Brock will be gassed.

Me too, but I don't think that will be the case. In fact as strong as he is, he is probably insanely difficult to KO with a punch.

Might be an even bigger concern for Randy, with that big 300 pound monster laying on top of him the whole fight.

I didn't really care for BL, but after the Crazy Horse fight I can't stand him....
I hope Coture

A lot of people feel this way, including myself. Just remember Brock is coming from an entertainment company like WWE. He fully understands that he will make a lot more money being cocky and brash then being the "good guy". Tito Ortiz was one of the highest payed fighters in MMA all the way up until recently because so many people either hated him and wanted to see him lose or were his fans. This creates a double interest basically.

that's why i like MMA. most of the guys here are adults and act with class and respect. look at most of the superstars: Silva, Coture, Franklin, GSP, etc.. I can't stand the Titos and Brocks of the sport. Luckily they are few and far between.

yeah i guess Couture. no idea though. I think Couture can expose Brock's mental retardation though if he doesn't get killed early.

Has Randy ever won a fight with a kneebar or healhook? I don't know if there is another way.

In Randy's 18 fights in the UFC, he has only won by submission 3 times. Once was a verbal submission (the guy quit?) and the other 2 were chokes.

I don't think he can choke Brock. It is just going to be too difficult. I've said numerous times he is a genius in the cage and as Max pointed out Lesnar seems pretty dumb, that is really Couture's only advantage.

Let me guess, do you have a manufactured made slight tear in the bill of your cap?

I'm sure Walk-Ons will have it. Just as I say that they probably won't. I can't see them not having this fight though.

Palm Beach, do you mind linking this in your first post on this thread? Thanks

We can start acting like the old black guys in the barber shop in "Coming to America":

"Randy Couture was 175 years old when he fought Brock Lesnar"
