The guy he was originaly was supposed to face was retired by the CSAC for being a giant. The guy he faced was pretty much a can and made short work of him.

The jury is still out to say if Brock is good or not.

Yep. Choi Hung Man as well as Antonio Silva were forcibly retired because they were giants. The reason being was a mild form of Acromagly (Hatton's). There is a harmless tumor or growth pushing on their petuitary gland, squeeze a bit more juice out of it then needed.

The funny thing is that both men have had very illustrious martial art careers.

The only computer access I have doesn't allow me to look at any video. I'm lucky I can even get on the internet and that's why I wondering. I appriciate y'alls input though.

So did he look like he could be a top contender?

Lesnar's skills , strength and ability alone will make give him a gian advanture, He powerd through 2 or 3 kimuras and arm bar attpemts, His hands will improve as they didn't look AWFUL, they are much more improvmed.

Give him 2 years, sky is the limit if his chin will hold.

Cro Cop also fought a can his UFC debut but that dont mean he sucks. His 2nd fight in the UFC he got KTFO, in my eyes Brock can be a good mixed martial artist and proved it his 1st fight. How bout we dont take anything away from him and let his 1st win a good one cough cough Burnell Cough.
Hong Man is big and slow, he also beat cans in K-1 that dont mean the guy is great.

Yep. Anyone who uses these guys in their promotions anywhere in the world will be denied or will lose their lisence and criminal charges will be set if in the US.

Brock has to cut major muscle which ****ing sucks.

The weight limit is at like 265-275 in the UFC.

its 265 in UFC, isnt Brock down to 260?:s I thought that is what he weighed in at k1, im sure i heard it. But anyways his MMA debut he looked kinda soft, anybody else notice that? before he looked solid as a rock.

Difference being that there is already valuble data on CroCop in MMA. There's none on Lesnar.

And can you sit there and say Choi fought cans? I didn't know victorys over Bonjasky, LeBanner and Shilt made them cans.

I was glad when I saw Brock less lean for the fight. Last thing he needs to do is come in ripped as **** allowing accomplished grapplers more edges to grab hold of.

Who was it that suspended them?? I'm currious what org./commission/etc. has that kind of authority. So, you mean they can't even get away with fighting in their own countries in smaller shows or whatever?

CSAC via Armando Garcia.

They can do local shows, but if those shows want to throw a card in california, they can't be used.
