Is Brock Lesnar the best heavyweight in the UFC? Who couldve beat him at UFC 200

[Idonotbelieveit]

Brock beats Browne though, love to see it too

 

[Fincher7]

Overeem and Cain for sure. And no Overeem doesn't need to be on shit to beat him.

Brock vs Rothwell would be very interesting as would Brock vs JDS.

 

[JKS]

LOL....the Brock trolls are back, and this one from 2005. At this point though they are fewer in numbers and we dont take em seriously.

Brock gets beaten pretty bad by any top 5 HW and guys like Barnett and rothwell

 

[kimchi dog taco]

anyone smart enough to throw an uppercut or knee
it baffled me that Hunt didn't figure this out since everytime he moved his hands Brock would flinch and drop to the ground

 

[Andre Xiong]

in his defense, Brock did look good in many aspects but
-Cain is likely a nightmare matchup
-JDS is big and fast

I think Brock can beat Reem in a rematch (especially current Brock vs current Reem)

 

[No Mas McGee]

Wow, look how skinny Lesnar was against Cain. Not to say a rematch would go any different.

285 is skinny?

 

[puppybird]

285 is skinny?

Compared to how he looked this weekend, skinny. Compared to a normal human definitely not!!

Agreed. Cain and JDS are top two guys that are nightmare matchup for Brock. I favor Brock against the rest of the field Werdum would be very interesting fight not sure how it would go. I wanna see that matchup on the ground.

 

[Death By Samson]

I haven't read through the thread so I will assume that I am the first one to say that Cain kicks his ass thoroughly again.

Cormier on a Popeye's diet.

 

[giancaakos54]

He was out to destroy last Saturday

- Freakishly quick, despite age
- Healthy and 100%
- Vicious takedowns
- Improved striking (he even outstruck Mark Hunt)
- No longer runs away when hit, took two big bombs from Hunt and kept fighting.

We thought UFC 100 Brock was scary.

Is UFC 200 Brock Lesnar the best heavyweight today?

Vicious takedowns? You're a fucking clown.

 

[zephid]

No, he is not the best HW in the UFC.

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Obviously there are a number of heavyweights that beat him right now but it's incredible that with five years out he is still in the top 10. No fights in five years and he comes back and is still top 10. That is fucking nuts.

 

[aldeniro78]

If Brock had gone into mma out of college and stuck with it, we might be having that discussion with more legitimacy. For such a raw fighter, he's pretty fucking good.

 

[TheGrandmaster]

The answer to the TO is yes, Brock is the baddest dude in the UFC right now. Anyone who doubts it doesn't know MMA. Brock is a monster. Too big, too strong, too powerful, and too skilled for the others to deal with. He was sick and not fighting to his full potential before. Now, fully healthy, he's a wrecking machine. He would eat Cain and Dos Santos alive right now. Reem would get wrecked, and Rothwell would wind up in the cemetary.

 

[Fight Professor]

I do not know why so many people are choosing JDS. He may very well end up in full defense mode trying to avoid takedowns and lose a decision.

Fighers with strong ground game and decent striking like Cain, Stipe, Werdum and Overeem are obvious favorites over Brock. I would put him around #5-7.

 

[ComradeFedor]

Nice try TS....

Every top 5 HW would beat him at UFC 200
