I hope Barnett goes also and smashes him...and smashes Mir.
That would please me a great deal.
I think Brock will do better than people think though.

Brock is no slouch on the ground. It's just popular to hate on him. Truth is, he is technically sound in his wrestling. And although strength is not the answer in Jiu Jitsu, it sure does help when you are insanely strong in a timed match.
I wouldn't be surprised to hear that Brock was around Purple level in jiu jitsu.
Brock is very high level wrestler and a freak of nature way more than mark kerr. Kerr dominated in no gi tournaments and yes he got many subs as well. He didnt just stall. Brock is learning more each day and think he would do very very well. Try pulling half guard on that beast and see if you can get to the dog fight ha. No thanks. Be open minded if he wants to try fuck it let him. That would take some balls on his part!!!!!
It's funny, all my friends thought that I would hate Lesnar because I'm a big MMA fan. I actually have tons of respect for the dude and his ground skills are legit. I hate pro-wrestling and much of the size difference and fighting style makes his game sort of unrelatable to me but otherwise, I don't get why the dude gets so much hate.
Mark Kerr was 13-1 in no-gi tournaments...11 wins by points (takedowns) 2 submission wins (Josh Barnett by kimura). Brock is not going to submit a high level Bjj blackbelt...he will use his wrestling and size to his advantage. I understand marking out to somebody but please....Brock gets by with freak size and wrestling....Randy Couture has more skill than Brock but he couldn't match up with the size. Yes, Brock is trying to get better in all aspects...but he's champion because of his freak size and Carwin gassing out!!!Quote:
