|  The pros pick Brock!
It seems to be a slow day so I thought this couldnt hurt got it from Sherdog's main page:
Heath Herring (Pictures) vs. Brock Lesnar (Pictures)
Nick Thompson: Brock via decision.
Gabe Ruediger:Lesnar by ground-and-pound.
Bryan Harper: Lesnar by ground-and-pound.
Vinicius Magalhaes: Lesnar by ground-and-pound.
Alan Belcher: Herring second-round TKO.
Din Thomas: Lesnar will smother Herring in a boring decision.
Rob Kimmons: Herring.
Chris Lytle: I like Lesnar.
Mike Whitehead: Herring.
Cung Le: Brock.
Jason Lambert: Lesnar.
Scott Lighty: Herring to win. He’s one of my favorite fighters.
Cub Swanson: Lesnar.
David Loiseau: Herring. I think MMA experience will be a huge factor that will get the victory.
Doug Marshall: Herring.
Eddy Millis: Herring by KO.
Pros picking Herring: 7
Pros picking Lesnar: 9
Im surprised so many other fighters are giving brock a chance! I mean hes only has 2 MMA fights and the majority of the fighters asked think Brocks gonna win over Herring?? I cant speak for anyone else but i think Herring is gonna take this, I cant beileve Herring is the betting underdog as well. If Brock takes this i totally retract my statement cuz getting past Herring is no easy feat, especially a guy fighting only his 3rd pro MMA fight. IMO you can take Herrings worst win on his record, and its far better then Brocks win.
War Herring!

i gotta agree with Herring on this. I think Herring is going to win.

The hype train is a powerful thing man. It's hard to stop that beast once it's rolling.

I'll have to go with "The Crow" on this one. Experience could be the difference.

I think Herring is going to sub him in round one or two.

Herring should be favored because of experience and demonstrated skill. There is a chance Brock can overpower him, but it really is a guess trying to determine what he is capable of at this point. I'm pulling for Brock, but I like Herring as well. I hope it is a 3 round war, though the later it goes the more likely Herring will win it, IMO.

you gotta account one of those votes as biased...that being Nick Thompson's vote lol and you gotta love Din's vote, his are always hilarious!
other then that, i got Herring on this one. Brock is a huge HW, but it's not like Heath is only 225 trying to be a HW when he should be at 205 LOL
Herring takes this off of experience, and catches Lesnar making yet another rookie mistake...probably sweeps him and subs or GnPs him...Rd 3
