hmm...

I wanna see Lesnar in MMA, didnt suceed at football.. he was an NCAA standout wrestler, hes physical specimen as well.. he might have a shot in MMA. Someone needs to sign him and get him in a match, I wanna see what this guy can do.

Can't help but think poor ol' Brock would get his ass kicked in either one...the boy can wrestle, but striking, submissions, and submission defence?????:violently1:

It's all about who Lesnar chooses to train with IMO. He's a phenomenal wrestler and a beast of a human being. With the right coaches and teaching, Lesnar could be phenomenal in a very weak UFC heavyweight division.

Someone on Sherdog claims he's been in contact with Mark Kerr asking about the transition from amateur wrestling to MMA. The ups and downs and such. We'll see.

Yeah, it is true...the UFC heavyweight division isn't very strong right now....I guess you can't count him out if he hooks up with good training partners...

Matt Boone 06-10-2006 05:55 PM

I wouldn't consider Mark Kerr that though, so hopefully he goes to a better team to help him with the changes.

maybe he trains with the best wrestler to step into the octagon in Randy Couture.. who knows.

That would be an interesting signing, regardless of where he signs. He's got the wrestling skills. His work ethic could be questionable because he said the football was a dream of his, yet he didn't tough it out. He's still fairly young, so getting with some decent trainers would definitely help him. We can see that he's obviously fit too. We'll see...... :confusedsmilie:

Later.

you make a good point about lesner but it was my understanding that he just wasnt picking up the techniques needed to rush the passer in the nfl quick enough, but your right, he did give up awfully quick, but i think lesner brings more to the table than just his wrestling i watched him land on his head and get up and finish the match, he's tough and he's not going to be easy to knock out
