I have known about having your brains scrambled and bounced around your skull will cause you to lose consciousness, but I have seen some hits that were not very jarring, yet landed on that sweet spot on the jaw and the guy just goes down. The temporal mandibular nerve is right behind the jaw and a possible explaination is that a hit on the jaw that jams the bone in to this nerve causes a overload of sensation. The brain deals with this overload by shutting down.

I think that may be correct, but I would think the brain would wired to stay conscius to better fight off whatever is causing you damage. Maybe we haven't evolved far enough to protect that nerve corrrectly.

Or maybe we evolved perfectly and the brain shuts down so the person damaging it will stop lol

well he already has great wrestling and will learn a lot of bjj from royce and that is a dangerous combination, and if he got very good at boxing he would have one of the most powerfulist punch in mma. i wouldnt like to see him fight anyone too well known yeat, i mean its his first match, i would just like to see how he fights aginst a few easier guys and eventually over a year or so rise to the top.

i think some of ya'll are forgetting that brocks only wrestling defeats came to kurt angle, who went on to attain gold at the olympics both times, if i recall correctly

Hey Harlemhustla, about as good as Coleman. I'm sure that you are aware that Mark Coleman won the first Pride Grand Prix and is a former UFC Champion. THat'as is nothing to downgrade. I know that he doesn't always perform well and behaves like an total retard but his accomplishments speak for themselves. As far as Lesnar goes, he is a former NCAA wrestling champion, and alternate for the National Team, and is an absolute beast in the gym. Whether that translates to success in the fight game remains to be seen, but don't make assinine comments about subjects you actually know very little about. Harlemhustla? Whatever you're probably from Buffalo. Fag.

In Lesnar's Junior year at Minnesota, he lost to Stephen Neal of CalBakersfield in the NCAA Div-I finals at Penn State. Neal went on to play pro football for NE Patriots. Lesnar won it the next year.
