I think Fedor has a shot at beating him as does Big Nog. Maybe Mir could do it again, but not so sure. Maybe Barnett. Other than that can any MMA fighter in any weight class beat him?

Outside of Mir, i would say its the other way around. He may have a shot at beating them...

I think Mir will get owned, Nog will crush him on the ground IMO and Fedor would walk through him. Fedor would check his chin.. Im possitive.

I rank him in the top 5 hw's. I question if anyone else can. I think he would smash Gonzaga, I think he would destroy Arlovski as well. I only see Nog and Fedor as a gurantee him and Mir would go back and forth and Brock would have to beat himself again for Mir to get the win I think.. i wanna see Mir vs. Randy now.

If Randy wants to stay relevant he needs to drop back down to 205 and try to get in the mix. He is just too small to fight these guys, besides I am sure he wants no part of Brock in a rematch so what would be the point of sticking around in that weight class anyway.

I think Randy is better suited at HW. He would not stand a chance against the younger 205 division. Rampage, Forrest, Axe murderer, etc.. The only two I don't see him beating at the HW's is Brock and Nog and I might have to put money on Randy if him and Brock rematch. I think he did great it was just a shot that caught him. Brock wasn't owning him in any way in my book. Brock had the advantage, but wasn't trashing Randy that's for sure.

Alistair Overeem would beat brock

I was impressed with Brocks ability to stop Randy from taking his back in the first round. Randy looked like a kid clinging onto Brock like that.

I think he was having flashbacks last night, it looked like he was trying to climb Brock and try a RNC on him.

The stat that blew my mind was Randy has 18 fights in the UFC, 15 of those have been for a belt or defending the belt... That is fucking crazy

My opinion on Brock is that his skills are mediocre, but add in his size and quickness, he can be very competitive. I really don't think anyone out there can compete with him. I wouldn't mind seeing Randy work his way back up and fight Brock again. Randy gave Brock too much respect last night.

It may be time for a super heavyweight class soon...

MindSpin · « **Reply #15 on:** November 17, 2008, 12:19:02 PM »

Nog & Barnett would own him. I think it would be a coin toss with Mir. Fedor would dispatch him in R1.

Overload · « **Reply #16 on:** November 17, 2008, 12:22:55 PM »

Top 5

How long until he fails a drug test?

The old Nog would be no problem with Brock...but I have not seen Nog fight to the best of his abilities in a while. Nog had problems with both Herring and Sylvia. Remember, Nog got dropped by a kick form Herring and the only thing that kept him alive was that Herring though he was playing possum and forced him to stand up.

I hate to say it, but all things considered, Brock is just about unbeatable right now. He doesn't have the best skills, but he uses what he has well. He now has a newfound confidence as well.

You obviously didn't see Mir sub Brock in 1.5 minutes...I know that was before, but it wasn't that long ago.

Agreed Barnett is a badass

Nog has too many weapons for brock

Problem is that Brock beat himself. Everyone knows Mir was fucked with Brock on top of him. Brock was the dumbass who tried to stand back up after he was in a winning possition. The biggest problem was that the guy he tried to stand up on is a skilled person in foot/ankle/knee locks. If Brock would have continued to pound on Mir the fight would have been over. Also if Good Ol' steve would not have stood back up for the shot to the back of the head the fight would not have gone on for as long as it did.

right above randy..

i thought brocks performance was great against randy. i was watching it with friends and all they were saying in the beginning was like look at randy holding him against the fence. i argued well i saw brock letting him kinda just hold all his weight and just watch for a take down. played it just so good not to aggressive. looks to be a little smarter thats all. randy should retire AGAIN and take brock under his wing. what you guys think.

Bluto · « **Reply #24 on:** November 18, 2008, 04:59:07 AM »

randy still got a few fights in him. that fight could've gone the other way.
