I think Lesnar is good for mma. He needs this win badly, because people (myself included) are starting to question his status as a top heavyweight. Right now I put him behind JDS,Cain, and Overeem. Remember he was getting smashed by Carwin before he blew his load, and he still is 1-1 against Mir. It's time for Lesnar to prove he is not overrated.
I like you as a poster, you dont take personal offence when opinions differ and try to state your beliefs in a sensible & justified manner.
Hes definitely not overrated but hes not the unbeatable machine he was hyped up to be. The way i see it he schooled everyone until Carwin, Mir's offence in 2 fights amounted to a jumping knee and his submission in the first fight. Brock absolutely killed him every other moment and Mir knows it. He played safe against Shane and, ultimately, could have raped him in round 2 had he chosen to but decided to submit him in a somewhat gentlemanly fashion. Had that been Frank i fully believe he'd have done his best to smash his skull in.
To even be able to take the beating Carwin gave him and then jump up smiling says enough to me about his ability to take punishment, just because a man doesnt like to be hit it doesnt mean he cant take a good crack on the chin and i doubt he'll fight anyone - Cigano included - that hits harder than Shane. Cain's assault on him would have destroyed most other guys but he wasnt out cold but was soundly beaten. Im not convinced he was 100% but he lost in devastating fashion and still had my respect for how he took it.
I have him behind JDS & Cain but ahead of Overeem, i hope im right in my assumption come fight night.
