Yea that point deduction was totally b.s. and it change the outcome of the fight, Steve should stick to K-1.

I was definitely impressed with Brock until he got caught.

Some people, even Mir, stated the leglock wasn't all that tight. I'm not sure what they're getting at; maybe you can back me up here... Those knee / ankle locks, my understanding is they don't TRULY hurt until the ankle and knee completely breaks / sprains / hyper-extends, right? Leg locks make me cringe in the same way watching someone get kicked in the junk does...

You're a bigger man than I, for volunteering to let Mir throw locks on you. Cheers!

LOL, rep'ed.

Nah, dumb would be letting Royce do it. Apparently breaking someone's arm when they tap is honourable (?)

Lesnar definetly proved he can be a very exciting fighter in the UFC. We could of seen him win by TKO if Mazagatti didnt deducte a point. Then Lesnar dropped him with a punch, but unfortunatly got caught in a leg lock. Lesnar was dominating the fight, I already want to see him fight again.

I don't know about anyone else but I would love to see them fight again in a year or so. I think it's funny now that Brock has lost how many people (mma fans) respect him. Funny thing is that I don't think people would respect him as much if he had won. I think it's ironic how his loss almost solidifies him as a true fighter (imo). He will be in the top 10 for sure in the text 2 years if not Champ, pending he sticks with it. I also can't agree more with those who say that stop could have potentially changed the outcome of the fight.

I'm definitely a fan of BROCK!

I love EXPLOSIVE fighters... and Brock definitely showed what he's made out of.

First take-down: Brock used wrestling skills
Second take-down: BROCK PUNCHING POWER?

I doubt Mir would have been able to out box Brock... but that's too quick to make that call...

I'M DEFINETELY A FAN OF BROCK LESNER... AND CAN'T WAIT FOR HIS SECOND FIGHT!

I agree with everything that has been said.. Brock will come back stronger and hopeful in a better matched fight.. Brock simply just didnt know how to finish.. He also didnt look like he punched all that well. He caught Mir right before he was subbed when he was in Mirs guard with a nice forearm, i think thats what cut Mir.. But he didnt know what to do next so he stood up and turned. I knew the leglock was coming immeadiatly.. But if handled right Brock may wear that strap someday.

im very impress with lesnar.
-of the 90 seconds that fight lasted he was betting the crap out mir for about 89 seconds until he got cought (rookie mistake).
-hes strong like mother fucker and fucking quick, that spining wrestling move that he did on mir was fucking amazing for a guy his size.
-hes huge, the cage seemed small when he was on the cage and even theres was only a 10 pound diference on the fighters lesnar looked like a monster.
-he showed his humble side after the fight and thats fucking HUGE.
-hes married to sable and that my friends is one hot babe.
