Insane Proof Brock Lesnar was the most athletic fighter of all time (GIF)

[The XL]

Bork and You'll are tied as the most athletic in MMA history. Randleman 3rd.

Brock hit a standing gramby in his D1 finals. I was impressed

 

[cmw43]

Literally hundreds of fighters could do that.

At nearly 300lbs? The bigger you are, the harder it is to do that kind of stuff. I'd be amazed if Stipe, DC or Reem could flip like that.

 

[BBMN]

See plenty of 300lb men doing perfect shooting star presses? Really? Sticking with that?

Exactly. There's barely anyone that size period walking around... the idea that your local indie wrestling promotion just has half a dozen Lesnars chilling is hilarious.

Can u do it?

Not anymore no. But i did without spring board in my 20s

 

[x__stylez__x]

Thank you for the reminder. I had to go and revisit this fight. It put a smile on my face

 

[TheHawtness]

cmon son

goldberg aint no 285 lber.

I have no idea what Goldberg weighed back then, but this is him next to a ~6'1-6'2, 215-220lb Scott Stevens. Either way, that's a giant man.

 

[snackgod]

that clip is 20 years old and brock was on roids as well

 

[BigDramaShow26]

People saying that's not impressive are haters, B.

Its very impressive for his size to stick a shooting star press.

Not anymore no. But i did without spring board in my 20s

I see .

R u 6'4 260?

 

[BigDramaShow26]

Wrong. It's turnbuckle vs ground. Goldberg's is way harder. "Damn back flip on your feet". LOL.

You're being serious? Brock still has to jump forward and nail the back flip all while timing the landing. Most wrestlers above 220 dont attempt this move. It's usually cruiserweight, and even then their opponent is much closer to them.

He was NCAA Div I champ and UFC champ in 4 pro fights. Having amazing NFL combine stats and being a top pro wrestler for 2 decades doesn't hurt either. I'd say those are pretty damn good accolades, no?

His combine stats are very good. I just wonder what the source is for those. His 40 is what is extremely impressive and those can be exaggerated a bit.
Did he go to the legit NFL combine?

Edit: NVM he actually did go to the NFL combine. Those are impressive for sure.

Acrobatic brock is king

 

[Prince Nephilim]

The balls it takes and in front of millions, after a win!

Goldberg peaked around 265

 

[RawkyMarciano]

Lesnar was legit far more athletic than Goldberg, prime for prime.

Goldberg literally was like 30 lbs smaller than prime lesnar

Scott Steiner was also more athletic than Goldberg.

Prime for prime, both of these guys are superior athletes to Goldberg.

You are wrong.

 

[Dbreiden83080]

He flunked out of the NFL. And being a "top pro wrestler" isn't much of an accomplishment.

For guys like The Ultimate Warrior yeah not so impressive..

For guys that had great matches for years like Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart.. Very impressive.. Hard way to make a living..

 

[josephsjoseph]

A flip is easy to do. A lot of people you wouldn’t expect can flip and do crazy “athletic movements “ it’s technique even for big guys. Fedor imo moved the most impressively for his size

 

[n...not crazy]

GOAT head circumference

 

[Frode Falch]

I see .

R u 6'4 260?

Nope
