Cain Velasquez should step up, he destroyed Brad Morris and would be a good addition to the card. No one is going to have the name recognition as Coleman but Lesnar has enough name recognition to stay on the main card. Lesnar needs a win and this guy seems like he would be a good test for him

Cain would probably ruin Lesnar, this sounds like a job for Justin McCully

Dissapointed not to see Lesnar vs Coleman, but St. Pierre v Fitch should be a good one

No way they put Lesnar vis Carwin. Carwin is going to be brought up nice and slow like Fitch is my guess. That dude is a beast, but doesn't have a name. It's a little early to put those two against each other.

Why do so many think Brock hasnt proven himself? He dominated Mir, who is fighting for the belt next.

Many said Mir was a joke. Who are you kidding? Mir is freaking awesome. He seems to be closer to his old self now.

Brocks stand up was wicked. I didn't think he had any boxing skills but man was I wrong. Wrestling is obvious, he's the best wrestler any mma orginization has ever seen.

I say, as long as Brock isn't fighting someone who is skilled in Jujitsu, he will win.

Personally, I would love to see Brock and Coleman, Coleman is such an idiot. He's the Hulk Hogan type in mma. Someone who just wont let go and still claims to be "better than ever". Please. Vin Disel on steroids is all he is.

I guess Kongo would be a good opponent for Brock, although, if he was in UFC, Bob Sapp would be a funny fight. Seeing that big baby Sapp get smashed.

Tim Sylvia would have been awesome, I have to say, Brock could beat Tim. Now looks like Fedor gets to.

How about, Brock v. Arloski? (if AA stays).

Oh, I know, Brock v. Eddie Sanchez!!! LOL.
I remember Eddie held a constant headkick/block position with Mirko, I wonder if he would take a constant sprawl position stance with Brock.

Theres always Brock v. Randy Coture. Be interesting to see Randy handle someone stronger and a better wrestler than him. Randy can say what he want, hes afraid he's going to get beat and mess up his legacy going out, thats why he wont fight in ufc. Nogera is certainly a "worthy" opponent for BRandy Cunture.

How about Gonzaga? He's coming off of two losses, Lesnar is coming off a loss. May be a bit too risky, I could see Gonzaga taking it with a sub, but I think he'd drop if he got tagged with Lesnars hands.
