So you are saying that Mir is right? And wrong? They are tied 1-1.

I was indeed referring to said trailer trash, he is BIG and FAST...not saying Cain can't win...thats the thing about MMA, your strength can be countered with other techniques...IMO Cain would have to attack one of Lesners legs to slow him down then he could pummel him from the outside. Mir starting adding 15-20 lbs of bulk just to deal with Lesner!
And speaking of Mir...he just said he would break Lesner's neck in the ring...naughty naughty...I'd like to see Mir vs Cain too.
Lesnar is really not very talented. Big. Sure. Fast...not really, I would say explosive. Cain is an ex collegiate wrestler so I think he can defend against the takedown as well as anyone.
As for Mir... he made a critical mistake... why go to 1/2 guard in MMA???? I love 1/2 guard, but every time I pull it in Vale Tudo I eat leather! And I am no pro! Mir should have known better!

I thought we were addressing Lesnar's MMA career (or lack there of)? Yes he was a solid wrestler, but it takes more than just wrestling to make an MMA fighter.
Velasquez would smash Lesnar.
You're going to stick to that story? He's defeated two former Heavy Weight Champs soundly, he was a collegiate champ, and he was even offered a chance to try out for a pro football team and he's not talented? You must have lofty standards indeed, my friend.
Don't mistake me here, I'm not on his jock, I just respect him...I think he can be defeated, as any man can, but to say he's not a very talented athlete or fighter would be an injustice.

Again- I understand the big weight difference. What will happen, will happen.
But Cain's learning curve is sharply up ward - he is in top shape.
Lesnar is more at a standstill and his unfortunate health related training interruption could be factors too.
Go Sun Devil.

lensar showed great improvements in his ground game and standup between the two Mir fights, but i agree the health issues might harm him, personally i would like to see the heavyweight division smaller in size and a super heavyweight division over 250 brought in
even with the weight difference it will come down to who is stronger
if cain is stronger than brock then obviously brock is in trouble despite having pounds on him:D
