I'm so excited for this event, my nipples are hard ! Seriously, you could cut diamonds with these things !!!
That was an epically dramatic staredown, and lesnar is ****ing ripped. MAN, i am pumped for tomorrow!
Look at Rogans face when Brock is in front of him. He is lighter and looks about 5 inches wider in the shoulders. I don't see cain getting away if Brock is on top of him. He better keep it standing. Like Jones said, Cain won't have much knock out power on the ground even if he was some how in control.
haha i noticed the same thing. then he came in under 265. thats nuts. weight cut is nothing now.
i guess i always knew that brock was bigger than cain but when they stand next to each other you really see how much bigger brock is they look like diffrent wieght classes
Brock looks great, and even the Tito looks really ready physically.
does anyone know what Lesnar will weigh during the fight? he looked like he focused on trimming down just a little bit during his camp I'm wondering about how much he'll be fighting at
Probably 265. It's probably not that he made an effort to get smaller, it's gotta be his diet coupled with the fact that he's able to train at 100% now, when he's been sick previously (remember the doctors said his illness had him at maybe 60%-80%). With a healthier diet, leaner and so much more dense, he's probably faster than he's ever been before, with higher energy.
they said he didnt need to cut weight in his last fight they probaly came to the conclusion that all that extra wieght was more of a liablity than a asset especaily after the carwin fight
id still be very surprised if he isnt about 280 for the fight. He said it in one of his interviews, something like ill be 280, cain will be 240. And you know thats one of my main dislikes with brock, the way he has such a weight advantage. Yes i know its within the rules cos if he makes 265 on the day then whatever weight he coms in at the following day is legal, but when he himself makes a reference to having the size and being able to bully his opponent it just makes me think that without it, then where would he be in that division.
Brock said in an interview he'd be cutting next to no weight. He said he naturally only weighs about 270 pounds, so for him he probably just didn't drink much on weigh in day, and rode a bike for an hour or maybe hit the sauna. 5 pounds on a man that big is basically like taking a piss.
I don't think Lesnar is worried about extra weight. He is super-human fast and agile when he's 300lbs. He used to eat nothing but meat/potatoes, now he's on a healthy diet. Natural that he'd lean up.
Brocks said he sweated so much that cutting weight was NEVER a problem, it certainly isn't now
He came in under weight, even with the beard.
1lb? lmao XD
He isnt underweight he is just 1lb under than he normaly is
Ah. He's not under weight, he just weighs less than normal...
are u 4 real?
I wonder how much it burns Tito's ass that there has been just about ZERO hype for his match?
Seems it's burning you more than anyone. Get a life
Tito is a tool
Madsen: "Seriously? You want me to take my shirt off?
But my tits!
Brock Lesnar, Jake Shields, Tito Ortiz, Diego Sanchez, Gabriel Gonzaga. I'm Done.
it seems like someone got caught in a lie on the prime time show they said that cain has bulked up to 250 and expexted him to weigh about 255
cant believe im gonna miss this for a f*cking costume party! hate my girlfriiend
Haha, It's my girl's birthday and I'm STILL going (with her too)!! Wouldn't miss this for the world!
unlucky colktfo, you need tp put your foot down. ill be up at 2am-uk time sunday, for the full card.
Screw the costume party.... she will get over it.
cardio & skills vs size & weight BRUCE LEE would have loved it maybe he will be watching
UFC needs to cap HW at 245 and have anythin above as super HW. HW is the only division where you will find opponents 20+ lb heavier and it's an unfair advantage. Sadly there's such little talent at SHW the UFC sticks with this ridiculous system.
id like to see something like that.
Why? So you can cry and make excuses that super heavyweights can't beat heavyweights? Say that Brock should cut and go fight Fedor right? No, That's dumb.
never saw lesnar this nervous/focused
Tom Lawlor should really forgo the whole dress-up funny guy thing and focus on winning one... He has lost two in a row now and we know what number three usually means.
Lesnar dwarfs Cain and rightly so.... Thats all I am going to say about weight tho.
Lawlor is going to get knocked SMOOOOTH out!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!
super hw is a terrible idea who would be the next no.1 contender for brock :/ travis browne?
I'ts gonna be crazy, gonna check out the fights in HQ at http://mma-videoheaven.blogspot.com
Sad to see yvel is on the under card...
He's lucky he's still there, after this fight he might be the co-main event for some third rate show in backwater Kentucky.
CAAAANNTTT WWAAAAIIITTTTT
