I mean, most of the real, experienced pros out there like Mir know that their opponents are experienced enough to fight in a professional manner without having to worry about illegal hits like that. This particular fight though, was like the first days of the UFC, where anything goes. I told my buddy to bet $50 on Mir and he won, I bet my $50 on Sylvia and that piece of sh-t did what he did, tapped out like a little bit*h immediately.

And we bet REAL MONEY btw.

Love him or hate him, i think Brock is here to stay, regardless of all hype, he could become a great fighter, a REAL fighter.

I think he destroyed Mir in that fight and i would pick Lesnar again in a rematch. He completely dominated Mir guys, the foreign environment of the octagon and the dumb ref call contributed to Brock losing. Hes green and hes a rookie in this game plus the confusion that occured.. relish the moment guys, because i dont see that ever happening again after this loss.

Next fight, no matter the opponent, Brock will CRUSH them!! i like the guy, hes obviously a determined athlete who loves to compete, not perform a muscle bound ballet at WWE.

Lesnar needs to train at Miletich man..

I hate Brock Lesnar, I think he is a joke, a freaking WWE girly man with tons of strength but big for nothing…

I am stating the FACTS pal… as far as the point deduction, I agree with DOC.. Maz screwed up… Mir survived fine, Brock should have been stood up though.. period.. warned yes.. point deduct.. RIDICULOUS…

WELCOME TO A NEW ERA WITHOUT GOOD REFS LIKE BIG JOHN!

good nite of fights…go nog..sylvia blows…

go frank….lesnar u suck…

can’t wait for next month

A warning would have been fine, but a point deduction with no warning is bogus. However, with a warning they should have been stood up. Anytime you see someone get a warning, the fight is always restarted on the feet. If Brock got a warning, it wouldn’t be fair for him to keep the dominant position so the standup was definitely justified. The point deduction was bogus, but the standup was justified in either case.

In Lesnars case, he got no warning either, he got a point deducted and STOOD UP! whats all that about? i dont care about the point really even though it was BS, the real problem was the standup. Why not start back in the same position? With Brock in half guard.

It was complete BS man, you guys just arent admitting it because you wanted to see Lesnar lose. If that happened to Wandy im sure you would be pissed Kansas lol.

As far as Mir/Lesnar, I called it, I stood by my call, and I am glad to see Frank in fine form again, he pulled a superb submission after getting elbowed half to death by Lesnar, I did feel that the ref was justified in warning Lesnar, as far as people saying Brock got robbed on that stop and reset, I don’t think so, this isn’t street fighting, there are rules just like in football, you interfere in a pass, you get a penalty and that penalty can cost you a game, a season, a superbowl, it cost Brock his debut, because had he not begun just slamming Mir to the back of the head, he would indeed have won the fight, so really Frank didn’t win as much as Brock lost… Horn came into the fight last night looking out of shape, he has a great attitude, but I don’t think he put forth even 50% of what he has into training and in the octagon last night.. it was sad to see Jeremy Horn get submitted like that… just sad…

Well, I think the UFC will sell soon, some of the rumors flying around are that he is getting offers from the WWE, I could see that happening, and I would hate it all the way, no better way to turn the UFC from a “nitch” sport into a household name… but no better way to drive away its hardcore base and talent, I think it would have problems if it went that direction, to the point of shutting down, but thats all stipulation and not fact yet…
