IMO a better match-up than Coleman, should be entertaining.

Brock isn’t a Kongo, you better train your ass off Heath. Everyone thought the Mir vs. Brock fight was short, wait to see what Brock does to Heath – G&P.
Stoppage due to hammer fist to the dome.

Yeah this is a way better matchup and will mean a lot more to the Lesnar hype machine if he wins.

Herring wins this and Lesnar would be considered one of the lower class fighters in the UFC

this is alot tougher fight than colman and i could see lesnar losing it.he should be able to over power herring and just gnp to victory since herring is not a bjj guy but herring is tough and alot more experienced and i want to see if lesnar can take one of his punches.

this will actually do something for his career except pad it this will actually earn him real respect in the world of mma ,although herring will not be able to handle his wrestling i expect a very quick 1st round stoppage ,brock too strong for herring

Blah blah blah…. Lesnar is screwed! He is better off being padded. I wonder what the excuses will be this time. .
Herring has JJ skills and can stand and bang with the best and he has weathered some viscious GnP so I think Lesnar is the underdog. Yeah tough draw for Brock.

herring definitley will be a tougher fight for brock than coleman. herring has looked muched improved since his loss to irish"fag" obrien and is in almost everyone’s top 10 at hw. this fight will be make or break for lesnar unless its areal close decision and i dont see this fight going the distance. a loss for herrring could set him back quite a bit as well.win both fighters need to win to stay or become a contender, it usually makes for an interesting outcome. herring is good on the ground, but not nearly as good as mir. imo herring must keep this fight standing and brock has to get it to the ground cuz herring has good stiking w/ his fist and his legs.

Heath is tough. He has been beaten by the best of them. Nobody should count either one of them out. But unless Brock kisses him while they are recieving their instructions………. I have to lean a little more towards Brock.

The funny part is that MMAMania is missing the bottom portion of this. I swear I just got this in an email and right below these guys it says plus GSP vs Fitch. It was sent from the UFC so I don’t think they would send that if it wasn’t true.

Herring has been in WARS against some top fighters, including Minotauro 3 times. Lesnar better bring a more diverse game plan this time.

I do question, however, what a win against Lesnar does for Herring’s record. I mean, I know Heath’s record lately has been up and down, but still, we’re talking about a guy that’s 28-13-7 against a guy that’s 1-1 in Pro MMA. Is giving Lesnar his second loss in a row — which would be an utter proof that he is no real opposition, if that happens — going to increase Herring in the rankings in any way?

brock wins via referree stoppage due to brain splatter on the mat

I think Brock will get a first round TKO. Brock will be all over him just like with Mir, but I don’t see Herring pulling off any clutch leg locks. I think that Brock will just take him down, smother him and start feeding the hammer fists.

exactly he was destroying mir before the ref stepped in and took a point and mir’s jj skills is worlds ahead of herring why was he scared of getting on the ground with norgera and he said that he made a mistake he gave not one single excuse stop putting words in fighters mouths

I’d love for Herring to beat Lesnar, but is everybody forgetting what Jake O’Brien did to Herring? Herring did absolutely nothing from his back for 15 minutes and he couldn’t stop the takedown for the life of him. Lesnar has much more established wrestling than O’Brien and has shown great G’n’P. I think it’s going to be either a very long night or a very short night for Herring, but either way I don’t see his hand being raised at the end.

i want to see brock use those huge elbows of his instead of relying on the hammer fist.

you can’t discredit his credentials he is a great wrestler and he is a beast who hits very hard you shouldn’t hate him because he use to be in wwe odviously we have had great wrestlers in mma should i start the list starting with the one of the greatest fighters ever randy couture

Herring is gonna be slammed to the ground and stopped in 3 minutes.

i couldn’t imagine how much damage he could inflict with elbows john mccain would probably get his way in outlawing mma

I have to go with Herring after I met him at UFC 83…he’s a big dude!

Brock is a beast!!! I cant wait for this card.

not nearly as big as the freak named brock how big is his hands again they had special order gloves for him cause they never had a heavyweight with that big of hands think i beleive they were 4x try getting hit with that

you haven’t met brock not saying i have but if your picking him on size then you need to check the stats

them crazy 4x hands smashing crazy horses face

even mir said he couldn’t beleive how enormous brock was when they were in the octagon together and he fought tim and some other big guys

Herring is not an impressive fighter.
VERY overrated heavyweight.
But, they could give Lesnar a title shot for this.
It’s not like Nog earned one.

Nog didn’t earn one? He didn’t have to…he deserved it by being one of the two or three greatest HW’s in the world over the past 5+ years. That said, Lesnar should not get a title shot if he wins this.

no babying going on for Brock,another big name fight for his 3rd MMA bout. a win over HH would be huge for him. i’m not saying that HH is one of the GOAT, but he has a lot of fights under his belt against some of the top Hwts in the world. it still shouldn’t be enough for a title shot.if he wins this fight i would like to see him try fight another BJJ practioner like Napau GG or a striker like the Manic Hispanic.

LAWL another loss for Lesnar poor guy they wont give him a break jeez how is he supposed to ever become something in mma if they put him against people who are huge favorites to win. After this win hopefully he gets Werdum assuming Werdum beats Vera which im pretty sure he will. Problem is after that wtf is the ufc going to do….No way they are going to fight Big Nog & Heath again.

you boys even remember the jake o brien fight? imagine jake by 2 and you have brock! lesnar by gnp

This is going to be like Doomsday fighting Lois Lane.

Lesnar by first minute TKO.

Easy win for Heath Brock shouldnt have Signed to the UFC bad choice man…. His Career is going for the worst start it can go. Hopefully they the UFC gives him cake fight like that one mexican dude fuck if i remember his name but Crocop knocked his ass senseless.

First, let me start by saying ,I am a HUGE Brock fan.He IS the tuffest guy in the UFC!!! Very talented!!Could be HW champ in 2 yrs. or less. He could fight big names every 3 months.He can dominate any HW and win in less than a min. O.K., maybe not Randy, but he can hang! Give him credit, he is fighting tough guys. I think he will win this one and many more.

I like Herring’s chances in this one, actually.

Brock wins by disgusting Herring who will not be able to fight with Lesnar’s penis tattoo staring in his face.

Herring wins, then they can not deny him a title shot, unless Fabricio Werdum completly mauls, in all means MAULS Brandon Vera in a quick 10 second fight.

I think if Frank Mir wins against Nog, then a Herring/Mir match right now would be a much more marketable match rather than Herring/Nog IV, even though people are still saying “what if Herring pounced on Nog.” I think a Mir/Nog fight would be awesome right now.

Or maybe, Frank Mir wins, and Brock Lesnar wins, and Fabricio Werdum loses, then you have to think, is there anybody in that heavyweight division that has a big name to go against Frank Mir that has a winning streak? DO you go with Brandon Vera or you could go with Brock Lesnar. Both would be rematches. Mir vs. Vera II and Lesnar vs. Mir II, both would be big money fights.

Thats how right now I am seeing this fight. if Fabricio Werdum loses (and I hope he does) then the next title shot will go to either Vera, Herring or Lesnar because there is literally nobody else you can give a title shot to that will be able to bring in the money like one of those 3 fighters.

Just saw some flicks of Gina Carano doing some act’in/parts for that Command and Conquer 3 game as a russian commando, she looks good.

Take note gary shaw………..

I imagine Brocks standup is like watching Sherk try to box, with less coordination.

If Herring trains takedown defense and a lot of clinches on the ground to get it standing, he can pull off a loudly booed decision.

Other than that, he will probably get raped by a 350 pound pitbull for about 15 minutes.

I wouldn’t put him past +200 though.

Win or Lose this will only build street cred to Brock Lesnar and help build his experience level. I am a fan of Brock and think that he has a chance at edging this out, but I would give the odds on favorite to Heath since he has so many huge fights under his belt.

Gotta give it to Dana for throwing Brock in the deep end of the pool instead of taking the chump way out like Gary Shaw and feeding his “new monster”, KIMBO, nothing but glass-chin cans.

In 2 years it is scary to think what Brock Lesnar will be doing in the UFC Heavyweight Division.

Mir was the worst possible fight style wise for Brock. I think Herring is a much better style fight. Question now is can Brock take a couple punches. If he can it is going to be a very bad night for Herring

Experience always plays a part in this game and HH has that edge.

I still say HH lost to Nog because of poor strategy…if he would have jumped him after the knock down he very well could have won that fight.

I still give the fight to BL but I don’t think it’s gonna be a walk in the park. HH is tougher than a lot of you think.

My hat is off to the UFC for this one they could have very easily given Brock a can but instead they have given him a very tough fight with an experienced guy who loves to mix it up great fight. Gary Shaw I think you can learn something by this.
