| UFC Quick Quote: Brock Lesnar should 'definitely' be inducted into UFC Hall of Fame UFC Quick Quote: Brock Lesnar should 'definitely' be inducted into UFC Hall of Fame Quote: Quote: |
"I think he definitely should be. Anybody who's been in there and won the title, whether it be four fights or six fight or whatever. I think he made a huge impact in our sport. I think he brought that whole WWE crowd, too. We saw that in the pay-per-view numbers that he put up, every time he fought. I think it's justified. I think he definitely should be included in the Hall of Fame."
| -- It might be a controversial sentiment to convey, namely because of the way former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar ended his run in the Octagon. On his way out, Lesnar lost his last two fights in a row by way of first round technical knockout, each time seeing Lesnar turtled up on the canvas, waiting to be rescued by the referee. It made not have been a Hall of Fame way to ride off into the sunset, but fellow former UFC Heavyweight Champion and current UFC Hall of Famer, Randy Couture, thinks Lesnar did enough during his finer moments to merit being eternally enshrined.

Idk, i guess what Couture said makes sense, but i feel tons of people will be against this. Imo he shouldnt be inducted anytime soon. At least induct other legendary fighters like tito and evan tanner

Well it is the hall of fame & there has never been a more famous fighter than brock. That being said, I completely understand the argument against it.

If Brock becomes a hall of famer, Couture's loss to Brock suddenly looks better on paper.
Hmm..

Randy's loss never looked bad imo. Brock was a beast even though people act like he was a joke. He is a freakish athlete/champion wrestler who before his illness had a killer instict. Granted his striking sucked, but a wrestler that quick&strong is scary.

Got to be on Dana's good side to be the HOF no? HOF is a joke until Tito, Frank and a few others are honored IMHO.

I think his view is a little off here. The HOF is the elite of the elite. Guys like BJ, Hughes, Randy.
Point is, IMO atleast, you can't put everyone in just because the won a title

I have no problem with Brock getting recognition for his accomplishments considering his lack of MMA experience.
Not something easily pulled off. There is no shame in losing to Cain and AO (who could have arguably been abusing TRT at the time).

There it is. However, I do believe there are other fighters who deserve to be inducted before Brock.
