Is there a better pure striker in the UFC's HW division than Kongo?

I'm sure that was one of the greatest MMA sequences ever!

Randleman's suplex was a thing of beauty! But watching Fedor turn it around so quick was incredible!

Yeah I edited that. Now it makes it clearer what I meant, lol.

Im still not on the brock wagon, and if this fight does happen im takin kongo for the upset!

Maynard vs Rich would be a good fight. I think that Grey would hold him down and win a decision.

Brock vs Kongo could be interesting. If Brock stood with Kongo and didnt get the take down Kongo would destroy him. Kongo has the best striking in the HW division. More then likely Brock would take Kongo down and control him the entire fight like he did against Heath Hearring. I think a fight with Kongo would be alot easier then against Gabe Gonzaga.

I edited out the Maynard vs. Clementi part because there is an existing thread on that: http://forums.mmanews.com/general-mm...-opponent.html


Sure seems like the UFC is packing the end of year schedule, especially if they have a December Montreal show and then a New Years card in Vegas

brock via hammer of thor rnd 1

even if kongo works his takedown defense perfectly, brock could just pick him up and throw him somewhere. i've never really bought into kongo being a great fighter, and most of his victories have either come over mediocre competition, or a severely out-of-it cro cop.

Kongo is a big MF'r. As Lesnar's 3rd UFC fight, this is definitely no gimme. I'm pretty damn impressed by the level of competition Lesnar has been facing. He definitely still has a lot of improvements to be made.

Kongo only has a chance if he either does one of two things. Keeps the fight on their feet by trainign TD def exclusively between now and the fight or by taking Brock down and somehow managing to keep Brock down and making him work from his back. But this is the fight I have been wanting Brock to be in since befor the Herring fight. I want to see what he can do against the elite striker of the UFCs HW division.
