MMAScoops.com is going to post a major update on this later today.

I personally think Brock would waste Imes he would get him to the ground and maul him. It wouldnt be pretty but it would be a win

Brad Imes first opponent for Brock Lesnar?

According to MMAScoops.com, this could be a possibility:

MMAScoops.com has learned that Brad Imes has been contacted by UFC and is being talked about as a possible opponent for Brock Lesnar’s UFC’s debut fight in February of 2008.

Brad Imes? Really? That’s a trap fight for Lesnar, in my opinion. Imes’ jiu jitsu has grown leaps and bounds since the reality show and he gogoplata’d his last opponent at WFC Downtown Throwdown in September. I’m not saying Imes would win, but I am saying it’s a much tougher fight than people will view it as.

If I’m the UFC, I throw Lesnar a serious bone in his first fight. Say Brad Imes comes in and beats Lesnar? Where do they go from there? Personally I’d love to see Imes v. Lesnar, but if I’m Dana White, there’s no way I risk it.

Jake O’Brien wants Brock Lesnar

October 23, 2007 By: Adam Morgan Category: Uncategorized

According to Ken Pavia, O’Brien’s agent, on the UG:

Jake O’Brien called begging for the fight. I had to remind him he just had titanium rods put in his neck and he is out for 6 more months atleast. He forgot.

Silly O’Brien.

I think you are giving them too much credit.

Dana has to sleep sometime.

Unless he talks in his sleep. OK, so you're probably right.

Imes would be a good opponent though.

Imes via Gogoplata!!

I think Imes would be a great first fight for Brock. He's a big guy and he's a decent name but is very beatable. If Dana is smart he'll put Brock against someone he has a good chance of beating because he's gonna bring a huge fan base.

Considering that MMAScoops is the absolute worst MMA related website on the internet and they make up stuff just so they can post stories on a regular basis, I'll wait to a source thats vaguely credible before taking it as fact.

Agreed. The Jake O'Brien rumor is more legit, but since there wasn't much to it I figured I would add the Imes rumor in there too just to round out the thread.
