Same old shit

 The title got me thinking he was going to be part of the WWE but this is the same old story he’s under contract with the UFC and there is no WWE as long as dana has anything to say about it.

I think

Brock won’t stick in the UFC unless he has a seroious shot at the title.

A few more lop sided losses and I wouldn’t be shocked to see him skip town back to the WWE.

i don't see him getting lopsided losses to carwin, cain or jds anytime soon

i somehow cynically think this “struve vs mccorckle= main event” because they’re going to push for a struve/mccorckle v brock as a legitimate comeback fight. then give him some lopsided wins. he’s too much money for the ufc to take risks with

by Totomamma on Dec 10, 2010 1:58 PM EST up reply actions  

i don't think jds would be really either

but maybe…he is a striker. so as far as brock and punches to his face go, that’s a risk. personally i think he’d take jds. but if i owned the company i wouldn’t put him in there with him till he’s won a few fights. struve, dana said always does awful in the first round. mccorkle, i watched him fight some fat shit on youtube yesterday who crumbled to a rabbit punch and mccrkle took 3 minutes too long to beat him. if he can say these guys are top ten heavyweights it’s a good comeback fight for brock against someone joe rogan will no doubt tout as “the real deal” and who brock will smash

by Totomamma on Dec 10, 2010 2:36 PM EST up reply actions  

Struve-McOrkle vs Brock in a handicap match might be a fair and compelling fight. Brock one-on-one with either of those spare parts would get Dana arrested as an accessory to murder.

LMFAO

“i don’t see him getting lopsided losses to carwin, cain or jds anytime soon”

Really what did you see in the Cain fight that makes you think that Brock is anywhere near the level of talent that these guys are? Nothing.

Carwin schooled him but fucked up himself…Brock loses the rematch.

Cain…please. There was nothing to indicate that Brock can compete with Cain. Cain was basically untouched and he SHUT DOWN Brocks wrestling. Yep, Brock CHOSE to stand later in the fight.

JDS…Brock hates getting hit…what make you think Brock has anything for JDS. And do you think JDS can be bullied…stupid, just stupid.

i don't rate him in the top 5 heavyweights

being afraid of being hit kinda knocks you out of contention. i don’t however think he’s not legitimate contender. if he won the belt, defended it, and carwin couldn’t finish him, he think he deserves consideration as a top ufc heavyweight.

i still think it’ll be a while before he goes for the belt, or at least until cain loses it

by Totomamma on Dec 10, 2010 8:12 PM EST up reply actions  

But look who he did it against...

Randy, old ring rusted, not the same since the layoff for acting.

Mir…earned split him, but was only in that fight because NOG had a staph infection.

Carwin lost that fight, Brock didn’t WIN it. There is a difference, smart people understand this.

Furthermore, I have no lest than 10 UFC HW’s and no less than 10 NON UFC HW’s winning those same three fights against those same three opponents at the same time.

I agree about Cain…guy looks awesome. JDS is an interesting matchup though. But I don;t see Brock ever winning it again with out some type of staph infection or creative scheduling by the UFC. They have proven to not be above it already.

stubborn people can't understand this

it doesn’t matter who he did it against. he beat a champ, defended against and beat two interim champs.if you’re gonna deny that brock didn’t suceed and wasn’t worth the push when he did that, there’s no convincing you.

i’m not saying he’s he best. i’m saying you can’t take away from him what he did. how many other fighters finished carwin?

by Totomamma on Dec 10, 2010 9:01 PM EST up reply actions  

But the title is made up...

Especially the one that Brock “won”. In fact Randy vacated the title and they were on their second interim fight. In fact the Mir?NOG TUF was stated that it would be for THE title. Not the interim title.

In reality Brock beat guys that were hand picked for him to win and for him to get the most value out of his wins.

I DO NOT think the wins that he got were impressive. Even if they had the word title attached to them. I didnt think Brock did well against Herring (to me control isn’t really winning), or Randy (sho tto the back of the head), or Carwin or Cain. In fact his only good showing earned him a split, Mir.

So yeah, i don’t give him credit for his handpicked wins. Would he have gotten that kind of treatment if he wasn;t a WWE star no. Cain was runner up for the NCAA title. He had to grind his way up. So do the other mega elite wrestlers. Like I said before I can name 10 in and out of the UFC that I beleive would win every figth Brock won when he won them.

I am not impressed by his preforMANCe (thanks GSP). That’s why when fools say it’s blind hate, I just laugh. I have a basis for not liking him…and the Carwin fight was a taste and the Cain fight is the main course. He just isn’t. He was winning on bullydom (now the aura is gone), his size and weight advantage ( now matched), his wrestling (which has been negated by anyone with a wrestling base), and he has huge holes in his striking, heart, chin, transitions, practical wrestling, and I suspect sub defense.

So I guess I am not taking away his accomplishements because I never gave him credit for them in the first place. Too bad, had he worked his way up like everone else, I would have at least respected him.

by StrikerDave on Dec 11, 2010 2:20 AM EST up reply actions  

Worked his way up?

So you would be happier if he wasted 5 years fighting cans a la Fedor?

Sure you would have. He doesn’t have time to waste working his way up against the other 10 HW’s the UFC employs. He jumped in and fought the best the UFC could possibly give him. I think that deserves more respect than working his way up through the Struves, Buentellos and CC’s of the world.

by jay. on Dec 11, 2010 1:52 PM EST up reply actions  

Who else could give him a "lop sided" loss...

besides somebody who can stop his takedowns and crush him in the stand up? Only guys I can think of are Cain and Carwin…. maybe JDS. Everybody else he should be able to beat easily like he did before the Carwin fight.

An injured Anderson Silva managed to finish a roided Chael Sonnen but GSP can't finish a natural WW who isn't an MMA dinosaur and won't take a fight at an above weight class. Let's not kid ourselves about who the P4P best is!

by Oswald on Dec 10, 2010 11:30 AM EST up reply actions  

Exactly Oswald

  If brock can just get the rest of his MMA game to a decent level he will be champion again but two fighters(cain, Carwin) can defend against Brocks takedown early in the fight anyway and thats all they have to really worry about making it a little easier, I just don’t see anybody else being able to stop Brock from taking them down?

Just a thought

But maybe brocks illness has something to do with his recent performances. Not saying he’s still sick but his mindset is totally different now. He’s humble and doesn’t have that bad attitude and maybe he just lost his killer instinct. Obviously his stand up is a problem too but maybe he just isn’t the same fighter he was before he got sick

His striking defence is a huge problem.

 He needs to keep his composure in the striking battle instead of hitting the panic button as soon as he’s losing and i think it’s more experience as Brock has never really competed in anything striking wise and it shows. He needs to maintain his ground game and really focus on the stand up.

Well not 100% true

 his wide shoulders give him a huge space for upper cuts. His stand up will never be elite but if he can get it too Barnett or Hughes like calibure it will be effective enough to allow for better takedown opportunoties.

I for one like watching Brock fight and seriously hope he learns to strike. If he decides to do wrestling, the he probably won’t learn to strike and will start loosing and get booted. Its his life, his path.

while brock is out there hunting in canada the undertaker is secretly training with randy couture for one fight only in the ufc.

Why do canadians stick together? The same reason why Chris Horodecki turned his body and face around in his first WEC fight. SB Nation's public enemy #1.

Undertaker has been training MMA for a while.

You watch him wrestle it’s very obvious. The guy used to have the tombstone piledriver, Old school, some suplexes.. running ddt, flying larriette and that was it.

In the last few years, maybe 7. He has put on MMA gloves and often riddles people with punches, and he’s always doing different submissions. something you’d never see him do years ago.

It’s kind of fun to watch Undertaker change styles in the ring.

Two Thoughts

1) Some of the best pro wrestling I ever saw was in the old UWFi from Japan. Worked shoots can be really, really good TV.

2) Dana still thinks boxing is real? That’s so cute! Let’s not tell him about Santa until after Christmas.

I don't know I think he's partially right

I love the language he uses...

" I don’t want to blur the lines.."

Newsflash, you already blurred the lines. It’s like a murderer saying," I am not a violent person but…"

YEs by adding Brok you have blurred the lines. By giving him the easiest path to the title you have blurred the lines. My making him the feature of all of your marketing (including the cover of the game) you have blurred the lines. Face it, Brok isn’t popular becuase of his college wrestling or what he has “accomplished in MMA”. Brok is popular becuase of what he did in the WWE. His presence is a bluring of the lines.

And adding Kimbo blurred the lines between MMA and streetfighting….straight up fail on both fronts.

But good try Brock is popular to many that follow college wrestlign and are MMA fans and second many of us non WWE fans becasme fans becasue of his early MMA fights. Your jsut making sh^t up, Brock being a big freak athlete also has much to do with his fame yes the WWE increases his popularity from there and opens more doors no doubt but he has proved he belongs in the UFC octagon by beating some of the best “Fedor era” type fighters. He now has to improve to beat the best current day fighters…well one anyway.

I'm not a WWE fan I was when I was 10ish and I heard about Brock when he tried out for the the NFL as many did

 His athletic ability was insane and his college wrestling was showcased when he tried out for the Vikings. just becasue thats all you know him by doesn’t mean that true for all fans. Many had no clue who he was but the Mir fight intrigued many. Trust me I was on here showing his background accomplishments and NFL measurables before he even faced Mir. And at the time those measurables dwarfed the best HW’s at the time.

Early OCtober, “Brock was the baddest man on the planet.” Now no shame in losing…okaaaaay.

“Its hard to call it an easy path”

No it’s not. Since when does a guy get a title shot when it’s his third MMA fight, lost 1 of them, and then beat two sub standard fighters. IT IS THE EASIEST PATH IN HISTORY.

“but he came in with LEGITIMATE skills and a LEGITIMATE background”
So do lots of NCAA wrestlers but they don;t get title shots after being 1-1 in the UFC. Hmmm…would his WWE popularity have something to do with it? I think so. But you can convince me if you can name anybody else who got a title shot that fast after being 1-1.

“better than MOST guys come in with. Period.”
What planet are you on? Most guys come into the UFC with more than a single fight. Because the UFC is the big leagues. EVERY other fight in the promotion had to prove their worthiness…but not Brock. HMmmmm…..I wonder if his popularity form the WWE had something to do with it?

“Then….he went and proved himself.”
Really, becuase I saw that as soon as they couldn’t hand pick their opponents that Brock failed miserably. Carwin (who actually was hand picked and undeserving of a title shot but got one because of his size compared to Brock) pummeled Brock to a10-8 and then because HE fucked up Brock got a win. And Cain…well we all saw how far Brock is behind the elite talent in the sport. Cain whipped his as in every aspect of the sport in one single round. Brock should quit now.

That was in response to “better than most guys come in with.” If you think his background (NCAA div 1 champion) isnt better than what most guys come in with, you’re delusional.

Carwin was undefeated, all first round stoppages, vast majority by KO, and also a background in college wrestling. If you think he was handpicked," for a Lesnar win, then you had zero knowledge of him before the fight. Brock has alot to work, but as i already said THAT is a different conversation, and not the original we started on. Brock doesnt like to get hit and HAS to be the bully.

Randy got it after 3 UFC figths and he beat the promotions top contendor to do it. Also the UFC was thin then. There were plenty of guys to get the title shot when Randy returned from acting…like the interim champ…duh.

“I acknowledge that in my post. Is there anyone who doesnt? really?”
Puck doesn’t…he said Brock got his ttitle shot based on his uh “talent”.

“If you think his background (NCAA div 1 champion) isnt better than what most guys come in with, you’re delusional.”
Try again…almost every guy in the UFC has mulitple fights and a solid record when they come in to the UFC.

“Carwin was undefeated…then you had zero knowledge of him before the fight.”
Against guys like Neil Wane and GG (who is not out of the UFC) when he got the title fight. They pulled him out of a Cain contendor fight. ANd the Mir fight only happened because Brock ate buckshot out of a watermelon. Mir suck anyway. Brett Rogers was undefeated hen he fought Fedor…most by KO…but he was a can right? But Carwin is legit…okaaay. You can try like puck to say I don;t have MMA knowledge but I know more than most and enjoy MMA as much as anyone. You can disagree with me but I know my shit and I can debate it.

“The popularity was a contributing factor. NOT the sole factor by any stretch of the imagination, and definitely not the sole factor.”

Right, because being 1-1 in the UFC and the win being Herring, yeh, that warrants a title shot…NOT. It was TOTALLY on Brocks ability to sell PPVs. You are fooling yourself if you think otherwise.

Luckily i said background and not experience. How many guys come in with such a high level in one of the martial arts? specifically the most dominant one?

Backpedal much? Even the BJJ champions, K1 elite, and other NCAA champs have had to “break their cherry” in the smaller promos. That’s how it works. Except for guys with a WWE fanbase. Forget trying to say he got a title shot after 2 UFC fights (where he lost one) because of his wrestling pedigree. By that rationale…any olympic wrestler can get a title shot after going 1-1? No…it’s the WWE fanbase.

“I said nothing about fedor. WHy does everything have to turn into Brock/Fedor?”

All I was saying is that Brock gets by carwin who has done nothing more that what Rogers has done. And it was a triumph for the Brocksuckers…LOL. But when Fedor almost took Roger’s head off…he was a can anyway, right? Just illustrating that Brock get the benefit of every double standard out there.

“Also, I said you must have had no knowledge on Carwin and his abilities, NOT mma as a whole.”

I have the same information about Carwin as you do. And I am sorry. He beat Neil Wane, then GG (already out of the UFC) and Mir (6-5). He didn;t exactly earn a title shot. I know he was an NCAA champ as well and was KTFO all the chumps he faced but there were more deserving contenders…he was hand picked becuas ehe has quick KO’s and was Brocks size. Dana wanted to shut up all the people saying Brock was only winning due to size. Well, he showed Brok “talents” in that fight alright. And that Carwin was never ready to fight a 2 round fight ever.

“i think most cannot capitalize.”
But Randy stuffed his TD and he was 60 lbs lighter. Anybody with a wrestling background (Randy, Carwin, and Cain) have stopped his TD. Herring (who lost to O’Brien’s wrestling and wouldn’t follow a KO’d NOG to the ground didnt…I wonder why they matched him up with Brock? Hmmmmmm?) and Mir…who was too stupid to avoid the TD suffered from his own pride.

Bottom line…no more bullying, stuff the TD, and throw hard punches…why owuld anybody scheduled to fight him do anything else. Mir wont do that but everybody else knows how to stop the Albino turtle.

time will tell.

I never thought Cain would beat Brock in the fashion he did, but i would pick Carwin in a rematch.

I was very impressed when Brock came in, GREEN (still is), and beat vets and champs like Mir, Herring, and Couture. Like the guy or not, that is rather impressive…i think. At first, i thought the Carwin fight showed his heart, a true champ, but as it comes out, he just doesnt like to get hit. He has the athletic skills but not the “fighter edge,” if you will. I just think MOST of the division can’t handle him.

Who else would you pick against him? Not setting you up, serious question. Kongo? no. Mir? no. NOG? no. Stuve? lol i don’t think anyone else in the UFC has a decent shot at a W.

I think either NOG or Nelson makes sense for next fight.

As for Fedor, forgoe an immediate with Werdum, and book Overeem…..please!

Right and I am going to ask you the same question as always… Who has fought a better set of opponents in their career and has his record?

While I am waiting for you to dodge that question again I will restate that I think Brock had hand picked opponents and that I believe there are no less than 20 HWs that would have the same record or better than Brock’s over the same stretch. When you look at it in that context you can see that it’s pretty apparent that his “accomplishments” were doable be myriad HWs and that he has only fought and been successful against over the hill opponents and cans.

brcok is popular because he's brock

when he entered wwe he was a huge deal because of his size, they pushed him and pushed him on his amatuer wrestling background when he came in, that and his size. same thing the ufc did, his amatuer wrestling and his size, how many times did we have to listen to joe rogan piss himself about his lunch box hands and his xxxxl gloves, the white gorilla.

i don’t even think brock got fast tracked. as far as i remember, there wasn’t much of a heavy weight division when he entered. then they had the four man heavyweight race for the belt with the only somewhat legit 4 heavyweights they had(one included old man randy who really is a 205 fighter). brock showed he deserved the belt at the time

and ufc not only hired kimbo, i remember watching a ufc fight with “sean the cop who beat kimbo” i think it was his name, they billed him as the only guy to beat kimbo in a street fight. but it’s not really blurring the lines, it’s an occasional gimmic, maybe, but no one is having a casket match, and the gimmics are usually a lesson, a lesson to disprove the myth that mma is still a sport where anyone can come from the bar, stand in the cage and win a fight.

You may have more knowledge about the difference between MMA, WWE, and street fighting but someone who doesn’t follow the three can easily see how similar they look and confuse them.

Dana didn’t help the sport long term for the short term dollars. After Brock drops his next couple the side show ill be over and we can go back to it being a sport on the rise instead of a joke that it was Brock as a champ.

i don't think there's a degree of blur between wwe and mma

i do agree there’s a degree of blur between razzle dazzle and above board sportsmanship. but i think it’s on the whole, in the ufc’s case, a benefit to the company. and people maybe, could see how similar in aspect it could be to a fla out show biz organisation. which is why we point out how it isn’t fake, not agree.

there’s not really much in combat sports and fake combat sports where you can stray from a tried and true beaten path, put on shows, market company, promote stars, make new stars push stars to gain intrest. if there are any similairty it’s because that’s the only way to do it. but to equate a similar business strategy to a showbiz faked company is ridiculous. we’re not seeing randy having his 5th marriage inside the octagon at ufc 150 and we’re not seeing anyone hang the ufc middlewieght belt from the ceiling by a wire while anderson silva tries to grab for it

 Yes Brock got his ass wooped agaisnt a great fighter maybe the best HW in MMA today(in many peoples opinions he is) Brock has been a one diminsional figher and if he wants to make another run at the belt he needs to improve his striking big time to have a cahnce against Cain. With saying that there are only two wrestlers tha tI see being able to hold off Brocks takedowns and having a good enough striking to expose Brocks weakness and that is Cain and Carwin other than that I don’t see anyone stopping Brocks offence. Infact Mir might have a better chance at beating Cain than Brock?

 His chin is a joke LOL now your bing a total troll!! Yeah he jsut took Carwin strieks and Cain strikes and was not knocked out but his chin is is a joke LOL

Well the point is too at the time Brock entered

 Cain and Carwin were both climbing the ladder and neither wanted to jump to face title contenders they wanted to go through the ranks were Brock wanted to face potential contenders off the go. The UFC gave him a chance because of his freak athletica bility and back ground in College wrestling. The UFC would of never gave Batista or Lashley as shot like Brock. Brock is a one of a kind freak and he proved he deserved to start were he did but I think Cain going through the ranks allowed him to develop into a better all around fighter as Brock had to rely on just on mainlt one phase of MMA and when they collided Cains longer road to the belt paid off? Either way Brock is still one of the best HW’s in the UFC #2 or #3 right now and really that is still an amazing accomplishment for only having 6 UFC fights. You can hate all you want but you sound foolish cutting one of the best HW’s in the world down. Yes cain has proved to be a better fighter and losing to Cain is no reason to hang your head he may be the best in the world!

No He appeared juts as athletic in his lay n pray win over Herring.

brock got the fight so fast in my mind because of the competition and lack of it. randy asked for brock as randy asked for toney, brock took it, brock won, brock beat mir, brock beat carwin. you can’t argue about what the ufc did with brock when he proved them right at each step. you could maybe argue against his push for the belt if he never won it and never defended it but he did.

do i think the ufc is a little more fan pleasing showbiz at times? yes, but it has to be to get to main stream. does it sometimes try to engineer stars? yes, does it fall flat on it’s face doing that? yes sometimes. the ufc is a company and does what companies do, tries to be succesful, but is it fake? no, is it the wwe? no, is it even strke force? no. and having said that i can’t fault stike force for some of it’s questionable decisicions either. both companes are trying to make mma huge, which should make us all happy. but if it’s a choice between a draw getting the title shot or someone like, say, fitch, who everyone grumbles about as boring, then i’d hope for the draw everytime. just because someone may deserve a shot, doesn’t mean they deserve to be a ppv main event. call it show biz. but one boring card and everyone hates on the dana, one drawn out decision and everyone hates on the dana. put an exciting draw of an athelete in who may be premature but who everyone wants to see, and people hate on the dana, if everyone is going to hate on dana anyway, i’d rather he puts on big name cards

Sorry But Brock got clowned in every aspect of the game in 1 single round. He has nothing for Cain and will NEVER see the title again.

Since when do champs get to name thier opponents? Especially when there is an interim champ.

“brock beat mir”
And that fight only happened due to Mir winning the staph sweepstakes against Nog. There is a reason that fight was scheduled for a rematch.

“you can’t argue about what the ufc did with brock when he proved them right at each step.”
No he didn’t.
Mir 1 Ooops
Herring – Handpicked
Randy – Money grab that was against someone who had previously left the HW for being undesizes
Mir2 _ Mir sucks anyway, 6-5 over his last 11, hardly unbeatable, one of the wins was Brock and his biggest legit win was against…Kongo I think.
Carwin– Make my point about Borcks lack of ability, he got bailed out by Carwins rookie move
Cain- Proves that Brock was never that good and is far behind the leaders of the pack

“do i think the ufc is a little more fan pleasing showbiz at times? yes, but it has to be to get to main stream.”
No…MMA is great enough sport that it can rise fast without the Brocks and kimbos. Forrest and Bonnar may be the least charasmatic people out there and the promo was built on them.

“Does it sometimes try to engineer stars? yes, does it fall flat on it’s face doing that? yes sometimes.”
I agree. But why not just not do that. Yes the short term cash is nice but MMA as a whole took a hit.

" is it the wwe? no,"
WTF? IS fake.

" but if it’s a choice between a draw getting the title shot or someone like, say, fitch, who everyone grumbles about as boring"
Thats how sports work. You don;t change the lineup if it’s boring. There was stretch when TAmps and the Ravens and the first Patriots team were all defensive based teams that focused on ball control. Many thought it was boring. But did the NFL pull of those teams for a more offensive team to be in the superbowl…NO. I like watching Fitch fight. Defensive games are apart of any sport.

Your statement is all ignorant man love and I heard it all.

" I’m still laughing at your comment that Brocks chin is a joke"

I’m still laughing that you think Brock has a good chin. Then again you are the guy that said Crocop is the best grappler that Fedor ever faced….LOL. Keep talking. You are proving me to be the rational one…you to be the pathological liar.

How does Brock not have a good chin?

How many people do you think can take a solid shot from Carwin and not go out cold? See, you are pulling me into this damn argument again. Stop It!!!!

Thats not what a good chin means...

It’s more general…Brock turtled up when he got touched by Carwin and then the trend continued against Cain.

When Cain got hit square my Kongo he was shooting 1 second later. Brock was collapsing or break dancing 1 second later.

So no, I don’t think Brock has a solid chin… hard to put to sleep, yes, easy to dominate after he gets touched yes.

When Cain got touched by Kongo

His knees turned to jelly. THREE TIMES. Weak ass chinned, Mexican.

Right...

I guess when Cain gets rocked and is impossing his will 1 second later, he has a week chin.

Brock break dances and turtles but he has a solid chin.

LOL…delusional fanboy.

Not sure if you know what having a good chin entails...

But he’s never been asleep. And that’s after taking 150 unanswered blows from Cain and Carwin. Yeah, his chin is weak. Get the fuck outta here.

Not the point I was making.

I said he has a good chin. You don’t have to be good defensively to have a good set of whiskers.

Funny that you are ALWAYS right about Brock

Yet couldn’t call a single fight of his right until the Cain fight. Yeah you’re always fucking right Dave. Suck a dick fag.

by jay. on Dec 11, 2010 2:12 PM EST up reply actions  

Weird I called...

only 2 fights…

Carwin and Cain

Right about Cain.

And I guess I was wrong about Carwin. He clowned Brock but then gassed. I guess I put too much stock in a guy that cant fight into the second round. But thats how Brock wins.

I am complaining that it ever happened. Am I not allowed to share an opinion?

Brock slowed the progression of the sport of MMA that I love and think could be bigger and better. It’s an MMA forum I am allowed to state why i think a certain way.

I didn’t always hate Brock…just the hype he got. He really nothing more than a LAshley…Lashley just took the legit route…even he says he should have done what Brock did and take the easy fights. Brock earned the hate by beleiving his own hype. Just like many of you fools did. Now that I am vindicated I get to give it you guys just like you were after the carwin fight…even thought hat was a joke outcome.

Wrong, idiot.
Randy – Money grab that was against someone who had previously left the HW for being undesizes

He’d left the HW division and came back to win the belt against Timmy (one of the guys you like to brag about Fedor beating) and GG. He was still a HW when he fought Brock. And 2 months before he fought Brock he was trying to sign a contract to fight Fedor. Let me guess, if Randy had been given permission to fight Fedor he would have been a legit HW, right? Fuck you’re so annoying.

Losing to Cain does not make one "behind the leaders of the pack"

Who has beaten Cain? Nobody you piece of shit. Losing to Cain only proves Cain is better. Fuck you’re a goof.

brock

Since when are mir,randy,heath and carwin easy fights? I watched randy beat tim silvia and gonzaga(just to mention two heavy guys). Noone had ever made it out of the first round with carwin. And mir is no slouch.
So in your book who do you have to fight to earn your real stripes? The terminator? godzilla? a bear? an m1a1 tank? chuck norris?
Even if you say those guys are easy fights for brock,in that same sentence you are admitting that hes better than a lot of the other heavyweights.
I agree on a lot of the points you guys make,but i dont see how you guys can be so one sided
