    Brock would kill him in a real fight.</div>

    That wasn't a real fight?

    I mean as in street fight, they stopped him a couple of times from bashing his head in.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (speeds @ Feb 4 2008, 03:17 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>There are a lot of different designer steroids available. Not everything makes you a monster.

    Some steroids are designed for rapid muscle and joint regeneration, allowing you to work out more often and for longer periods of time. Some help you shed weight quickly. Some are designed for lean muscle mass, some for bulk, some for power, some for speed and agility. Obviously people like Marion Jones aren't taking the same steroids as people like Jose Canseco.

    It looks like Brock is just huge. He fought at heavyweight in college. He's not like Sammy Sosa who started his MLB career at like 170 pounds and ended it at 250. Obviously Brock didn't fight at 290 pounds in college so that weight gain has to come from somewhere, but intense workouts for a dozen or fifteen years will pay dividends if you have the frame to carry the mass.

    With him I think he probably took stuff to make him look more cut. His body right now looks deflated. Of course they use spray-on tans and lighting and airbrushing and stuff to make WWE guys look bigger, but to me he looks like he's the same size now as he was then, just less defined.</div>
    I think the less defined comes from MMA training as you work the cardio more than the 6 pack. In WWE it's more about having a six pack than cardio so there would be some change for sure. As for him gaining size since college, in college you're still 19-22 or so and still developing. Almost every pro athlete grows in muscle/weight once out of college as their body is still maturing and it's not like he gained a ton of size, just filled out.

    he's gonna be getting a lot of pee tests so he should be caught if he is cheating.

    but MMA is a sport now not some unsanctioned free for all like it first was. It's like saying boxer A would be boxer B in a street fight.
    It's kinda irelevant.
    first dude to grab a bottle or whatever wins a street fight. that or the one with most friends on hand wins

    too soon to tell. Will have to get the medical suspensions report first. If he broke a hand or anything he'll be suspended 4-6 months minimum.
    If he's healthy I expect him to fight in 4-6 months as the UFC will want to push him again.. most likley vs a less experienced or better match up opponent. (Anthony Hardonk perhaps)

    It depends a lot on how willing he is to learn and what kind of sacrifices he can make in training. They showed him eating junk food, which is a habit he needs to break right away.

    In terms of potential he has as much as any MMA prospect in recent memory.
