Not particularly skilled? He's an NCAA Heavyweight Champion, what are you talking about? He's probably the best wrestler the UFC has.

If this fight ever does happen, it'll be Lesnar's toughest fight ever.

Indeed! This Fedor guy has one hell of a record behind him. I think a 30-1 record is unprecedented.

Lesnar does have height and reach on his side though; 6'3" and 81" vs. 6'0" and 74", respectively.

And he can take a beating.  This is him getting slammed by Kevin Randlman in Pride.  He was out for a second, recovered, and ended up submitting Randleman a minute or so later.



Brock definitely has the size though.  If he can get Fedor down and not make any mistakes, Brock could win.  I know Brock won't stand-up with him.

Like I said, Lesnar is perhaps the best wrestler in the UFC. Takedowns are something he's very good at, so unless Fedor has a large centre of gravity, getting him on the mat shouldn't be too hard.

Oh, I'm not saying Lesnar can't take him down, finishing him is what I'm getting at.  Fedor has been taken down plenty of times in his career by bigger men than Lesnar and still comes out on top.  Damn, I'm getting pumped just by thinking about it.

His ncaa days were a while ago, and his strength was often the deciding factor, not his technique.

The technique is needed though. Size isn't everything because you could be the largest man in the world but if you can't find the leverage to work around a person's centre of gravity, then size is meaningless. That's where technique comes in.

Barnett tests positive for steroids.

I was really looking forward to this one too.

Fedor and UFC.
Fedor will destroy Couture.

Fedor will be picking at Couture's remains after they get stuck in his teeth. Seriously, Randy is a great fighter, but he's washed up now.

I have Cyborg without question...I love Gina but Santos is like a female version of Wanderlei, and I really don't think Gina is ready to get hit that hard... :-\

I read somewhere that they were 'roids prescribed for a medical injury, but that he hadn't cycled off in time for the drug test...sucks if true...

Anyways, did you guys hear..? Franklin vs. Belfort at UFC 103..! Crazy fight, and Vitor has been looking real good lately...

Stephan Bonnar had the same problem not too long ago as I recall. He was suspended from fighting, I think for at least a good 6 months.
