If he keeps it on the feet. If he can get Fedor down, he'll outweigh him by roughly 50 pounds. He can lay on Fedor all damn fight.
Fedor fought Zuluzinho who weighs around 400 lbs.. not saying Zuluzinho is good at wrestling like Brock, just saying Fedor has fought much bigger opponents then Brock.
he's fought big freakshows, no one nearly as athletic and talented at Lesnar. And by talented I mean wrestling pedigree. If Brock can take Fedor down and smother him like he did Mir in the first, there isn't much Fedor could do about it from his back. But hell we all want to see what would happen.
I just have a suspicion Brock would win. That is a reason why I don't want this fight to happen. I don't want Brock's ego to have that to its title.
But is he this good? Or does his pure strength advantage and ability to just lay on top of his opponent because they can't transition out from under him make him look this good?
if he has the ability to get anyone he faces down and lay on top of them not allowing them to transition underneath him, doesn't that mean he's this good? you can say "oh well he's just bigger and stronger so he's not really good", but that's like saying shaq wouldn't have been good at basketball if he was smaller. who gives a shit? his size isn't going to suddenly go away.
Yeah, I think he is that good. He's just such a match-up problem, like Shaq, as rocket said. He's big and fast and has parts of his game that are just difficult to overcome. I don't think his TD's are great and his stand up is full of holes, but he is just a tank. Sure, Fedor probably armbars him in the first round, but he doesn't come away unscathed.
I'm curious to see if Fedor can wriggle out from being underneath Brock. Mir was immobilized and if Lesnar could do the same to Fedor, who's smaller than Mir, the results could be the same. If Fedor is able to keep it standing for a bit, could he KO Lesnar and that 4 foot thick neck of his that looks like he could survive a head on collision with a bus.
Fedor easily has the power and accuracy to KO Brock, but will Brock give him a legit chance too? Mir rocked him, and Mir's striking and power isn't Fedor's. Brock got rocked by that knee that didn't land flush, if Fedor can land flush...nighty night Brock.
I enjoy mma but dont get super hyped on it...but this....oh man....this would be awesome...There is no other fight in any class that Id rather see....and I wanna see Fedor win by KO, that would be amazing
I really would have go with Fedor on this. Fedor doenst do anything but train. He lives in a small house miles away from internet service in the russian forest. It's probably more remote then where Brock lives. He just sits around and trains all day. He doesn't talk shit, he plays cards before he fights, he is just a machine. I think one thing that makes Brock is that he is so big and strong. If he is 30 pounds lighter there is no way he is as dominating as this. And you can see that he wants to stand up a little bit. All it takes is one vicious shot from Fedor. Idk what it is, I just can't ever pick anyone ever against Fedor. as the saying goes... fevor vs god? fedor by armbar.
I'd pick Fedor. But I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Brock won by Ground n Pound or just by laying on top of him. If Fedor pulls it out, it'll be by arm bar, RNC, or on the feet.
Sounds very exciting, though I'd have to give it up to Fedor on this one. He knocked out Andrei Arlovski cold. And he is just way too experienced for Brock in my opinion. If Brock can train a little more on his feet and use his lunch boxes effectively, he could win.
