Stipe hasn't fought a good wrestler... Brock would be a PROBLEM

[STEVEN SEAGOLD]

So I'm looking at Stipe's MMA record... And it dawned on me. This dude hasn't been tested by any top notch wrestlers, let alone any that match or even outweigh him in size. I can't seem to remember him facing any real tough wrestlers... Honestly his UFC run he has fought striker after striker, and some BJJ guys here and there... Has he been tested by an old school country strong size matters WRESTLER?

No.

Enter Brockman (Sandman)

"I don't know how he makes 265" - Mark Hunt

On fight night, Stipe would be 245 and Brock would be close to 290. Let's be honest.. This is a danger fight for Stipe, Who has NEVER faced an elite wrestler, let alone with a size and athletic advantage THIS STEEP.

Stipe is white Cain, so....

Stipe is white Cain, so....

That was diverticulitis Brock... Anyways, Brock took him down, he just didn't take his time getting better position.. If he were able to pass that leg action Cain had going, he probably could have won that fight... Atleast it would have gone to the 2nd round with Brock 1 round up. If he can get Stipe down... Anything can happen.

Brawk by brutal GnP. Stipe would have to retire due to disability.

 

[Harmonica]

Your Brock fever is becoming impossible to bear.

I think Stipe would be able to stop Brock's TDs and would KO him standing. Stipe's boxing is way too good for Brock.

Boxing don't mean shit when you're on the canvas.

 

[NoBiasJustMMA]

Stipe TKOs Brock more often than not, his hands, footwork, reach, speed and wrestling would give Brock a lot of problems, if Hunt can win 1 out of 3 rounds I think Stipe would beat him.

 

[kathebrahl]

Brock is going to be in trouble against anyone he can't take down at will. Next fight he will also not have the USADA exemption

 

[gimp0]

Alistair will finish Stipe.

I cannot wait to see Reem vs Lesnar 2. That's a huge fight.

 

[NightwingBJJ]

Sable still looks great for her age and Stipe could cause problems for Lesnar.

 

[davyjoneslocker]

Easy win for Stipe and most the top heavyweights.

 

[screaminleeman]

Stipe has largely flown under my radar.

I remembered the Roy Nelson fight, and he is a fair wrestler, and top controlled Frank Mir in an all grappling contest. I thought to myself, check it out.
OK, you were right, Nelson was BY FAR the best wrestler he has faced in the UFC to date, and I have no idea how Miocic vs. Jeremy Horn was even done given there respective weights! Then I looked over the top 20 UFC ranking.
Since Big Country is also more BJJ, it made me wonder who are these "good wrestlers" he has missed? I count a total of four that could possibly qualify.

#2 Werdum - (He is not a great wrestler)
#3 Cain - For Sure
#4 The Reem - Fair - Decent Wrestler and is next on Stipe's schedule
#5 JDS (Not a good wrestler at all)
#6 Big Ben (Not a good wrestler at all)
#7 Arlovski (Not a good wrestler at all)
#8 Travis Browne (Not a good wrestler at all)
#9 Brock Lesnar - For Sure
#10 Hunt (Not a good wrestler at all)
#11 Barnett - For Sure
#12 Mir (Not a better wrestler than Roy Nelson)
#13 Derick Lewis (Made Roy Nelson look like Dan Gable, Only question here is if he is the worst or second to Hunt for worst wrestler in the UFC HW division!)
#14 Roy Nelson (Dan Gable like to the man he held down for 14 minutes ranked above. We agree, not a great wrestler overall in the bigger picture)
#15 Struve (I think the Wrestling is still illegal in Holland!) LMAO
#16 Ruslan Magomedov (Pure striker)
#17 Bigfoot (Not a good wrestler at all)
#18 Gonzaga(Has fought Stipe and lost!)
#19 Duffy (Not a good wrestler at all)
#20 Timmy Johnson - For Sure
#21 Ngannou (Not a good wrestler at all)

Is Brock even a good fighter? Seriously. How much skill do you need when you're so much bigger and stronger than everyone? It looks to me that he just wins on size/strength alone.

 

[Mohawk Mauler]

if Hunt can win 1 out of 3 rounds I think Stipe would beat him.

But Brock demolished/obliterated/dominated Hunt how could he of won a round???

[shaffmeister]

Stipe is a great wrestler himself. If Brock took him down stipe would get right back up and box him up. Horrible matchup for lesnar

 

[Phronimos]

Brock would match up well with Stipe. I'd like to watch that fight.

 

[Flokk]

Why would Stipe show up to wrestle when he can knock Bork the fuck out?

Stipe, TKO, Rd 1. Bank on it.
