I just got thinking about this again as now Bigfoot has finally been cut hopefully he shall move over to Japan and bulk up and take what he needs to perform at the optimum level.
I get the feeling that a prime Brock, with no weight or substance restrictions, would be almost unstoppable. He just threw Hunt, the strongest (after Brock) fighter and hardest hitter in UFC history, around like a boy. I'm a Mir fan but realistically, if he hadn't panicked and started striking Mir in the back of the head he probably would have finished him the first time.
If he hadn't panicked and forgotten how to pass butterfly guard he could have held Velasquez down and battered him. Overeem is trickier but I do think he might have been susceptible to a 100% Brock. His TDs were unstoppable, his top control smothering and his GNP earthshaking. Like I thought back when Brock was champ maybe the only fighter who could handle his power would be Bigfoot.
