If you want to know why the UFC is dominating mixed martial arts, look no further than Saturday's Showtime pay-per-view that was co-promoted by K-1 and EliteXc. The Los Angeles Coliseum, which the promoters claimed would pack in over 90,000 MMA fans, had about 10-15,000 and most of them got in for free. David Doyle of Fox Sports reported that two sources in the LAPD told him that the paid attendance was about 1,000 on the day of the show.

horray for my boy royce gracie and brock lesnar
Brock took him down with ease and his Ground n Pound was dominant.
Brock lesnar by verbal tap out.
he one strong SOB.

Did Brock Lesnar beat a good opponent or just some bum?

Did Brock Lesnar beat a good opponent or just some bum?

His Record doesn't look so great, but I don't wanna assume he's a bum off of that. But he took the fight when it was suppose to be that 7 foot Korean guy, Man Choi Something that was suppose to fight Lesnar

Bum is a harsh term but yeah, this guy was a fraud. He’s spent years calling out Fedor even after getting beatings off Sapp, Frye, Schilt and others.

He’s Korea's joke to the mma world.

Im kinda pissed that someone from the WWE is winning in UFC, anyone know what I mean

Nah I liked seeing him in there, I have respect for crossover athletes.
