If you weren’t already stoked for the is fight between Couture and Lesnar, this will get you going.
I doubted Randy when he fought Tim but Tim is a goof, even Matt Hughes who trains with him said that. I like Randy but I don’t see him beating Lesnar unless he gets a “lucky” lock, like Mir got on Lesnar. This fight is bigger for Randy than the Fedor fight.
And to those who compare Lesnar to Sapp, it doesn’t stick. Those two aren’t in the same galaxy when it comes to athleticism. Lesnar is faster and bigger than anyone he has fought. Lesnar will own Randy and it is unfortunate that he will be beat in Lesnar’s third appearance. And until Lesnar fights someone with a name, and there are few, Randy will have been beaten by the newbie who beat Mir. And Mir has no business fighting for the chance to fight the winner of Saturday’s fight.
Mir was overwhelmed, just like Herring, by Lesnar. Unless something freaky happens, Lesnar is the champion for the forseeable future. The idea of martial arts is to give the smaller guy, the weaker guy a chance to beat the odds. This is a case where the big guy has enough skills, speed and strength that it will likely overwhelm the better skills of Couture.
I am no fan of Lesnar and ripped him for his inability to do a simple finishing move on Herring. Tons of openings that any new jitsu practitioner would know. This will leave him vulnerable to something by Couture but I don’t know if Couture would actually get the hold.
If I am wrong I will admit it Sunday but I am not. And Lesnar does have a dick tattooed on his chest. This is why you need good friends.
