Lesnar can't punch though...

He has terrible stand-up, he just hammer fists people after taking them down. He's an excellent wrestler with serious power and will probably have better cardio than Hunt. If the fight stays standing, Brock will lose.

Just to follow up, Lesnar has been granted a USADA exemption. Expect him roided to the gills tbh.

It doesn't actually say he doesn't have to take any tests, just that he has been granted an exemption from the specific rule that requires four months notice before an athlete can return. He is, according to the article, still subject to all the other rules and regulations:

"UFC, however, did notify Lesnar in the early stages of discussions that if he were to sign with the UFC, he would be subject to all of the anti-doping rules. Lesnar and his management have now been formally educated by USADA on the policy, procedures and expectations".
 
Was pleasantly surprised with Lesnar's return which quickly subsided when I read that it was a one-off fight!

I know Dana is just looking for ratings for the 200 card but it's become even more of a pointless fight than the McGregor v Diaz fight was!

If he genuinely believes that it was his illness that was the issue in his last run then commit to MMA and prove it - don't just show your face for a big payday and then scarper!
 
Bit of a joke to be honest, Hendo isn't anywhere near a title shot, or at least shouldn't be. He's ranked outside the top ten for a start, and secondly he's 3 and 6 in his last 9 :p

Unless Bisping has asked for it?

Still, a good first defense for Bisping, providing he avoids the big right hand he should take it comfortably.

Mendes been flagged for ****** hot, kinda funny considering when he was talking about Aldo being on PEDs.

Brock vs Hunt shouldn't be co-main card but its all about the money.

Hunt is no push over and if he catches Brock its light out. Brock has his power and ground work so should be an interesting fight even if its all a bit pointless.

Bisping deserves to milk the belt for a couple of fights IMHO; make some cream. Then one final fight before retiring.

I think it's a first defence he can win. I don't see him beating Jacare, Weidman, Romero or even a rematch with Rockhold.

I would love him to but I just can't see it. Hendo is the easiest fight he could ask for, out of the options possibly open to him.
 
Another crap fight on TUF this week... probably the worst season there's ever been.

The format is tired, the talent pool is stretched. Nothing interesting in the house, and the fights have been amateurish.
 
Yes indeed, i'm interested to see if Thompson can do the job. If he whips Macdonald in the same fashion he did Hendricks then he will surely get the next title shot.

Cerrone and Cote should be a good one as well.
 
Chuck is a legend, his problem was the game just passed him by as he aged and slowed down. Couple of nasty KOs and his chin was shot. Was a beast in his prime though.

AJ off next months card, shame that would've been a good one against Texeira :(
