Brock Lesnar..What a punk

I think it was Elden that said that anyone remotely interesting and/or accepted by UFC fans usually gets a pass if they do something arrogant or stupid after a fight.

Brock was playing the crowd and made a statement that he could go the full 15 minutes. He was out to prove that he could go the distance, and he practically toyed with Heath Herring for their entire fight.

Brock right now is at the same level he was at when he came into the UFC. He lost one suddenly, he won one convincingly. That about makes him even.

And in regards to his arrogance, Tito Ortiz became one of those guys you "love to hate", and fans responded by making him one of the biggest UFC PPV draws of all time.

So, love him or hate him, people are interested in Brock. People are going to pay money to see him win, but an equal amount of people will probably be putting money down to see him lose. That makes him a draw. And that, my friends, you can absolutely not take away from Lesnar.

you really think he schooled him ? I have to say you are wrong..he punched him in the face and then wasnt aggresive the rest of the fight..although that spear attempt was pretty awesome after the knockdown punch lol...I just dont think he schooled him because there wasnt much action after the first round...a few takedowns and Brock basically took naps on Herring.

This is my new favorite subject...

I love how Lesnar wins his 2nd ever fight in the UFC, his third ever MMA fight overall, and he was "boring." Someone tell Heath Herring that fight was "boring." In fact, write a letter to him, so he can read it through his one available eye and clinch his ribs in pain while chuckling.

Lesnar delivered some huge blows in that fight. The reason everyone is so down on it, is because he didn't finish him with the RNC that he was basically being given. I was a bit dissapointed in that...but there's nothing I can do about it. Lesnar did damage on his feet (as you can see), pounced him on like a cheetah (as you saw), did damage in the clinch (2 just vicious knees) and did damage on the ground (pounding him in the ears/face and then the knee's) and people are complaining?

Why don't people complain about the fact that Heath Herring made minimal effort to even attempt ANY offense? Oh what's that? He couldn't? Maybe it's because Lesnar took SO much out of him. Herring was a lame duck that entire fight, and Brock did exactly what he was supposed to do. Brock Lesnar took the fight to Heath Herring, who has 40+ fights under him, and destroyed him. Brock manhandled a 6'4", 250lbs man like he was pre-adolescent teenager. Brock kept looking for openings the ENTIRE fight. It's not like he layed on him and sat. The entire time, he was moving him and looking for shots, which he often found on Herring's already concaved face. Lesnar just dropped a legit HW, jumped on him like a cat on a mouse and played with him for 3 rounds, and left the fight with a win and no injuries. I think that's a pretty good night for your 3rd ever fight.

I love how when Kos beat Diego Sanchez, everyone in the world claimed "Smart fighting by Kos" because he avoided him and did exactly what he needed to do to get the victory. Florian just beat Roger Huerta because he did a lot of jabs/kicks and then got out of there while Huerta went forward with the fight, and people are okay with that. Lesnar destroys Herring and takes him down countless time with ease, mangles his face, and probably broke his rib...and Lesnar "stinks."

And the after the fight antics, give me a break.

-GSP does backflips and tells Matt Hughes he's "not impressed with his performance."
-Kendell Grove, who is awful, does a 30 minute ritual where he is pretending he's burrying his opponent.
-BJ Penn licks BLOOD off his gloves
-Kid Yamamoto continues to beat on his opponent after the fight is over, the ref is trying to step in, both corners are trying to pull him off and he's obvious out cold.
-Nate Quarry makes a mockery of a full fight vs Kalib Starnes.
-Rich Clementi drops his nuts on the back of Melvin Guillards head.
-Rampage howls
-Chuck does blo--I mean, throws his arms out screaming.
-Almost EVERY fighter runs and jumps up on the side of the octagon to show their leaping ability.

Yet, Lesnar has a little fun and plays it up for his home state and he's a "punk?" Give me a break.

"PUNKS" are guys like KID and the Diaz brothers.

I never said he sucked ?? where did I say that ?? I know its going to take time for him to improve and be deadly..he needs training, like any noob in the UFC....I just think it wasnt that great of a fight for him to be acting the way he did..know if Herring couldnt make it up after that first punch in the face I could understand going crazy



and the Quarry and Starnes fight....I think Quarry was right in what he did cause all Starnes did the whole fight was run away and refuse to engage or fight at all...which is why he was cut the same night.

you didn't see Nate Quarry/Kalib Starnes did you?

well maybe i used wrong wording..I dont think he sucks...I think he has a lot of potential...just in that fight..I didnt see anything that impressed me other than the punch that put Herring on his ass.

This article sums up my stance on Lesnar perfectly.

I could not have said it better. I just saw this fight on my friends tivo and I must say that this statement made is ridicolous. Brock did much more then lay and pray.

I agree one hundred percent!
