they both suck in my book.
define what u mean by "suck" ?
They are far from bums.. of course they are nowhere near top in their weight class, but you cannot, in good faith, say they "suck".
This will be a bigger test for Randy than people anticipate.
Randy's strenghns: Wrestling background, Ground and pound, respectable cardio.
Lacks : ko power, well versed in submissions but he's no jiu jitsu master, not from his back which is where he'll end up, he is also coming back after taking a year off.
Lesner pros: wrestling, fucking strong guy, size in mma does matter. i'm sure he's got ko power.
cons: little ground game,just lack of experience really.
I love Randy, but i really don't think he's anything super special. he just comes up with great fight plans for every opponent. Hopefully, this will not be the exception.
However, i believe Lesner is better at wrestling than randy in addition to being significantly stronger. The greco clinch that Randy loves so much will not work against Lesner. I'm sure his being out for such a long time will have repercussion in his cardio and level of comfort in the cage.
Like i said, i love randy, but this was not an adequate come back match. i can't count him out because of his still enduring athletic abilities, but i believe lesner is too strong and too "good" for people to look pass him.
I heard people say, well Randy took out Silvia, who's bigger than lesner, so he should have no problem.
Please..Silvia "sucks". you could never compare silvia and lesner. His punches are slower than a snail and lacks the explosiveness and quick reaction that lesner has.
guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Hope Randy can put lesner on his back and just keep him there for 5 mins.
But it lesner mounts or has sidecontrol, it will be the same showing as with Keith.

come to think of it. a Lesnar vs Kimbo fight would be the shit
although i do think Lesnar would win that fight because Kimbo is...let's face it, one dimensional
oh and Kimbo gets no love because Elite XC sucks =P

I have never seen Lesnar fight, but Couture has take people a lot bigger and a lot younger than him and he comes out with a win.
