The below rumour is doing the rounds on all the usual mMA website Forums Randy Couture might be returning to the uFC to headline UFC 91 in Portland. Against Brock Lesnar........ If true Randy is still the UFC Champion as was never stripped, then off the back of TUF Nog/ Mir for the Interui title with the winners meeting to unify the two belts in 2009. How insane would that be? As stated at the moment is just rumours but since seeing what Fedor did to Big Timmy Randy has been less vocal about wanting the Fedor fight. plus with his legal problems still dragging on & the serious money that could be made taking on super draw Brock maybe there is some truth to it. www.sherdog.net/forums/f2/randy-headline-ufc-91-rumor-updates-836905/forums.mmaweekly.com/showthread.php?t=9266Thoughts? ?

Holy shit! That would be a kick ass main event. It would could be see Couture back in UFC again, and im my opinion, he would kick the crapout of Lesnar.

I gotta call bs. I mean, Lesnar got his first official UFC win and still has critics about his style. Give him Kongo, then talk a match of this caliber.

Yeah that's too good to be true, plus say Brock won that fight, he's suddenly the champ after a 2-1 record in MMA? Maybe have it Brock/Couture in a non-title fight, then have the winner of Mir/Nog fight Couture for the title. Couture then finishes his 4 fight contract and trains for a fight against Fedor. Unlikely, but would be very interesting.

That would be a horrible fight for Randy Couture...if he just wanted to see who was the better wrestler that would be interesting..but from an MMA standpoint Randy has nothing to gain and Brock would have everything to gain, win or lose...imagine Brocks ego if he won against Couture? WOW.

Wow that would be huge for Lesnar if he won but I honestly don't think he is ready for such a high calibur fight

id love to believe it but i doubt itll happen. if anything he would fight nogueira since hes the interim champ. plus i dont think brock is worthy yet. he needs to get through kongo first.

2-2 after the Kongo fight After seeing Brock take out Heath, I don't see Kongo winning that fight. Brock needs to learn how to stay on his opponent when he's got full mount and how to apply a rear naked choke. Kongo is awful on the floor, Brock just needs to drop him and swing away.

i call rumour, since brock's managers would be fools to line him up for this fight, he'd be destroyed.

2-2 after the Kongo fight Based off what? The amazing ground game Kongo doesn't posses? Based off a tall, cool glass of Brock Lesnar Haterade.

I dont see it happening, especially since its from Sherdog. I wouldn't believe them if their tongues were notorized.

If Brock were to defeat the actual UFC heavyweight champ, my god it would be great for MMA as a whole.
