Setsuna Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I can't see him losing the fight now, What bizarro world did I wake up to this morning? I obviously didn't give Brock a quarter of the credibility he deserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilwaldo Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 The real winner tonight. Nobody in MMA has ever given Brock the proper amount of credit he deserves. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Brock's smile was for each and every one of you on this board who were hoping you would be living in a Brock Lesnarless world after tonight. Now he's only stronger because of your doubts. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man Known as Dan Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Brock might have the shittiest standup of any UFC champ ever, but he has a legitimate claim as the most naturally talented wrestler the UFC has ever seen. If he gets you down, you are fucked, unless you are great at subs from the bottom. Hunt isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted July 10, 2016 Author Share Posted July 10, 2016 Only Brock Lesnar could have a month long training camp, return to the cage after 4+ years off, and smash a top 10 ranked heavyweight. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Any thoughs on why Hunt waited so long to start striking? The longer it went the more risk he was at. He barely threw three punches by Round 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He barely threw three punches by Round 3. Hunt, to me, looked terrified of Brock shooting and getting him on the ground, and that limited his options. I don't think you could have paid him to throw a kick in that fight, out of pure fear of Brock catching the leg. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 From sea to shining sea. From one white boy to all nationalities. I'm pretty sure those two things are not political slogans but Brock giving his ranch staff a head's up for the menu when he gets home. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man Known as Dan Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I find it funny that you can make a very legitimate claim Brock is right back into being a Top 10 Heavyweight after almost half a decade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Not that funny because there are like 5 maybe 6 legitimately good heavyweights. Still, he got the job done and I didn't think his chin would stand up. Good on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavyweight gonna heavyweight. There is literally one quality heavyweight outside the UFC, and he hasn't fought a top 25-30 heavyweight arguably.

Kevin Wilson Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I think its also easy to forget since Hunt is so much fun to watch, that since he is a one trick pony he struggles against top talent. He has now won 3 of his last 8 fights so he may be fading after the quick start when returning to UFC. Brock did exactly what he had to do, take down Hunt and use his strength to keep him there, Hunt just looked too tentative so he never had much of a chance unless every round was like Round 2 which would have been awful to watch.

When you're use to guys fighting you at a closer range, it's tough to just adjust to that when you know a powerful takedown is coming. Lesnar could do something that dudes like Nelson, Pezao, and Mir couldn't do, especially Mir since he is notoriously bad with traditional wrestling takedowns. Lesnar was circling into his power, and Hunt still couldn't hit him square and was landing high on the shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
