    I think Lesner wins this fight

    He will take Kimbo down and hold him there for a vicious ground and pound

    Kimbo new name should be tartaruga which is Portugese for turtle because once he is on his back he will die

    We haven't seen if Brock can take a punch, and Kimbo sure as hell can throw one.

    But yeah, Brock would take him down and use his wrestling to stay in top position. Kimbo would lose badly.

    I wouldn't be calling it so soon.

    Kimbo has a great trainer/coach - whatever you call it.

    I'm not a huge fan of either guys but I'd go with Kimbo in this one. Kimbo can punch eyes literally out of their sockets!

    Kimbo has no gas tank. James Thompson had him beat. 30 or 40 seconds of Brock trying to mount him and Kimbo would be drained.

    Kimbo no doubt with a 1st round KO, so bad that Lesnar never gets to see another MMA match. (or be in it I mean)

    Well Kimbo definitely has power, and if he landed right obviously it could be a quick win. But I would go with Brock. Because Kimbo doesn't know how to defend from the ground very well and Brock would get him to the ground pretty easily, and then pound him. He also wouldn't have to worry about submissions from Brock.

    I'm looking forward to the Kimbo vs. Lavalamp bout scheduled in November. That one is right after the ROTR vs. Anderson Silva. ROTR is training right now...

    Training to run for 5 mins straight I hope [​IMG]


    and Kimbo suposedly has power, but all he's done is drop a few cans and a over the hill Tank Abbott.
    He faced Thompson, a guy who's supposedly got a glass jaw and he still couldn't decisively put him down.

    and it's not as if Brock is a small man.

    maybe if kimbo could use his experience to catch brock off guard, he could knock him senseless. the few times that i've seen lesner fight, it just looked like someone could easily outclass him in a match.

    Hopefully they'd knock each other out and neither could ever fight again

    After last night can there be any doubt that Lesnar would grind Slice into the mat and pull his legs and arms off?

    I'd still wanna see it but yeah, I wouldn't give Kimbo much of a shot.
    Although my comments about Brock's class sure seem to ring true (not complaining, I love it but ...).

    I would predict that, and that Kimbo has worse ground defense than Herring. But Kimbo packs a lot of power and he could get a 1st round KO on anyone.

    hey if Kimbo actually wins a fight or two, he may get a UFC contract and it could conceivably happen!!!

    it's not likely as Kimbo doesn't stand a chance of getting a title shot and Brock will either be the champ or trying to regain the belt, but hey, ya never know.

    Am I the only one who would think that Lesnar would have absolutely no problem winning this? The only way I can think of it being a problem is if Lesnar wanted to stand and like prove himself on his feet with Kimbo and then get hit with a punch. But other then that I don't even think it would be a question who would win.
