Coleman vs. Lesnar - August

Postby qwerty » Sun Mar 02, 2008 10:46 pm

Well, for those who saw the fight, Coleman got inducted to the UFC Hall of Fame and will be fighting Lesnar in August, any though? Anyone really care? :lol:

Coleman was great in his day, but those days are long since past - Brock will eat him alive.

My thoughts.....wow, the UFC dug deeeeep to find a fighter Brock could blow away to earn his keep! I think this is a Gimmy fight for the big blond grappler.. Coleman is one step away from a walker and cane! This is a joke and the match makers at the UFC are probably hidding their faces right now!!!

Coleman in his Prime > Lesnar all day.

Coleman today..... Tough to say if he can do it. I see Lesnar overpowering the old goat and implementing some of Coleman's own brand GNP on him. Coleman's experience could pull him through, but, to bring him in for this.. Looks like they couldnt find anyone on the roster that can't beat Brock.. Where's Assuerio Silva when you need him?

I hate to say it, but Tim would beat down Brock man. I think Fig is right....they needed a fighter that could fall appart convincingly and make their money back for them.

sylvia only wins because of reach and weight, and brock is a heavy dude. but i get what your saying... lame on the UFC's part.

Coleman probably knows hes just money bait too, probably rigged to lose. UFC is becoming more and more money orientated and subsequently more and more shit/pathetic.

Brock is an equal wrestler to Coleman yet he is younger, faster, stronger and hasn't taken a tenth of the damage that Coleman has in his career.

This fight should be a walk in the park for Brock. Coleman doesn't exactly bring anything to the table matchup wise that would make Brock an underdog.

Brock by maul.

As far as Brock vs. Timmy is concerned, I think it would be a bigger test for Tim then most people think. Tim isn't the greatest grappler and I doubt him (or anyone for that matter) could keep Brock from taking him down. I also dont see Tim subbing Brock either and KO'ing Brock while he shoots would be tough as hell because I dont thin Iv seen a faster HW shot in my life. Brock is a nasty match up for anyone who isn't versed in submissions from their back.

Tim and Brock were training partners at one point. Tim says that Brock is a little bitch that doesn't / cannot take a hit. See, their is already hatred :)

Lesner will make a once great wrestler look like a wrestling novice.
Strength and power just to much for coleman to handle. Technique not the factor in this fight its all about getting brock a win against a Hall of famer so the not so eduacted fan can say WOW.
but will be good. very bloody. sorry Hammer u lose man,
Well done on the 'HOF' it is deserved.
Love all mma, and big UFC fan but I do miss Pride.
Big Supporter or British MMA so a shout out to Micheal Bisbing, Paul Taylor and Dan Hardy who are representing well and makeing their mark in the UFC!!!

I think Brock could be great, My beef is that he is starting at the top when many guys his level have to start at the bottom. Why not throw him in the WEC for a bit to get those building blocks???
