i hear some fans say that Brock Lesnar will be a top fighter one day. But i think maybe only for Superheavyweights, not heavyweights.
He was supposed to fight Hong Man Choi, who is 7'2, but that guy got injured, so another Korean fighter replaced him, and lost to Lesnar.
Hong Man Choi also beat Semmy Schilt in K-1. Brock Lesnar is only 6'2.
Do you guys think that Brock Lesnar could handle top superheavyweight fighters as tall as Hong Man Choi, Semmy Schilt, Tim Sylvia, Gan Mcgee, or will he have a difficult time taking them down??

He only wants to fight 6 times and then retire.
It seems he's in it for the money.
he got 500,000k for his last fight against a complete bum,the UFC doesn't even pay that amount for some of its best fighters,i doubt he will come to the UFC.

Holy shit! That's a lot of money for that fight. I wouldn't move to the UFC to fight (potentially) tougher guys for peanuts either.

Id favor his chances more against Choi than Schilt, as Semmy is a legit striker and his close to 6ft 11.His striking combined with his height would pose a mountain of problems for Lesnar as naturally Lesnar striking standing up will undoubtedly be weak.As for Choi he represents ALOT of problems for anyone as his so dam big.Lesnar mains strengths right now are his size strength and wrestling skills.Apart from his natural talent he doesnt bring much else to mixed martial arts.I hope his around longer than 6 fights as his natural athletic ability along with his relatively young age could see him a succesful career in MMA. If his only interested in just a 6 fight contract he`d be better of going back to NJPW

He won't have to fight Super Heavys he fought his last fight at Heavy, he can make 265.

I think that not only brock can only progress from here...but that he's also good FOR mma. (just a positive addition for this sport).

Stoo's obsession with Mike W reminds me of Mike Ws obsession with Bobby Lashley, Rashad Evans, Rampage Jackson, Phil Davis, Daniel Cormier and Jon Jones

Similar to how you tease the girl you like??
Lesnar was taught a hard lesson in his UFC debut, but won the title from the man who beat him in the following year. Brock has more then exceeded mine and anyone elses expectations.. When will he get credit for what he accomplished in the Octagon?
Not calling anyone out, but you know who you are.

if brock had the stand up skills of badr hari, and the takedown of gsp and the jiujitsu of werdum he would be good.
