Besides Randy being in the game longer, what advantage does he really have...Brock has got him in every area. The only way Brock loses is by submission and Randy isnt a submission guy. Done
MMA wrestling is much different than regular and i would say brocks style is much more effective...

Randy VIA TOTAL DOMINATION over Brock Lesnar, any round, any time, any way he wants.
NEVER BET AGAINST CAPTAIN AMERICA.
Brock is a bad matchup for Randy. I think it would be hard to argue otherwise.
If Couture can get Brock on his back he can win that fight.
Brock is a bad match-up for him.
But the size is the match up.
Randy can beat a 235-245lb. freestyle wrestler w/ no hands, who uses just a lot of ground and pound.
U add 40 pnds to that (which is what Brock will be walking in at) it changes things.
Brock beats up on a middle of the pack Heath Herring and that makes him unbeatable?
Randy by sub.
watch Barnette vs. Couture or Rodriguez vs. Couture to get a good idea how this fight will turn out.
Randy won't be able to fight off of his back.
dangerboy12 - watch Barnette vs. Couture or Rodriguez vs. Couture to get a good idea how this fight will turn out.FUCKIN LOL @ that stupid shit!
Randy won't be able to fight off of his back.
Ricco is a SUBMISSION MASTER who was at the height of his powers AND an excellent wrestler. Same thing with Barnett.
Brock seems to have power and great wrestling. He got subbed by a TELEGRAPHED leg lock like it was UFC 2 and was too afraid to go for subs or and reall good GnP against Herring worrying that heath would escape.
Yeah. No chance Randy has improved his ground game in the last 6 years.
I agree that on paper, Brock is a terrible matchup for just about everyone, but it's foolish to ever count Randy out.
With the right gameplan and/or a mistake by Brock, Randy gets the W.
Brock will tear him up bad.
I'd like to see Randy win but think Brock will control the fight and maybe even knock him out if he lets his hands go. 50+ pound advantage is like GSP fighting Chuck or Tito.
I think Randy is awesome but this is a bad match-up...Randy has struggled with big men in the past with losses to Ricco and Barnett. You can find the Randy Couture vs. Ricco Rodriguez fight on google. I think these fights were losses for Randy simply do to the size and strength difference.
Lesnar by gnp
No matter who a guy trains with, it's hard to get better than a seasoned fighter in the amount of time Brock has been in the MMA game. I think Randy will have the striking advantage, perhaps not the power advantage but the advantage nonetheless. They are both great wrestlers, but Brock is bigger. Randy will have the advantage in subs but will he get one on such an overpowering opponent?
Can't wait to watch...
did this get announced?
brasco, have you come out of the closet yet?
