Fedor VS Lesnar (comparison)

You got it! Fedor submitted Kevin in a couple of minutes.

 

 

Brock Lesnar

 

Lesnar was recently submitted by an unranked fighter in a couple of minutes. (Please don't start with the "Frank Mir is really good" BS. Mir was recently destroyed by Vera (the guy who lost to Tim Sylvia recently)).

 

 

Randy Couture

 

Couture recently stated that a submission grappler is the worst possible match-up for a wrestler. Fedor finished his last five fights by submission (four of them in first round), making him statistically today's best submission grappler in MMA.

 

 

Heath Herring

 

Herring is the only common opponent of both Fedor and Brock. Herring was ranked No. 3 in the world when he fought Fedor.

 

Fedor has destroyed Herring in a devastating fashion, throwing him around the ring and delivering too many strikes to keep count. The doctor stopped the bloodbath after one round.

 

Lesnar, on the other hand, went to a decision with a now unranked Herring, delivering no damage aside from one big punch and two knees to the body.

 

 

 

Brock's wrestling and size are irrelevant. This is not wrestling, and this is not a "Who is bigger?" contest. This is MMA! In MMA wrestlers have a big problem wrestling when they are being punched in the face repeatedly, while their legs and arms are being twisted off.

 

Wrestling is a great art, and a great base for MMA, and I'm a HUGE fan of Lesnar, but let's be real, ok?

 

History shows that Fedor is a huge favorite in this match-up.
