Still faith in Lesnar

Postby Make_Believe_Muscle » Sun Feb 03, 2008 11:22 am

Okay,

I know he last rather quickly and there was so much hype over him, but I think he did a great job controlling the tempo of the fight at first, and had some vicious GNP. I see a lot of potential and Brock Lesnar. He's huge, athletic and strong as hell.

However, he NEEDS to improve on his submission defense, and should've known better to get caught in Franks kneebar. Another hole I saw in Lesnar was in his heart. I think he needs to have more of a heart. I think he could have ben able to hang in there for a little while longer.

I'm not taking anything away from Frank, because he is a wizard on the ground, and has lots more of BJJ experience. Kudo's to Frank Mir, and I am happy for him.

As I said before, I still believe Brock Lesnar has tons of potential and was impressive against a guy who is a former UFC heavyweight Champion (the same guy who broke Tim's arm) and a wizard on the ground.

He just needs to work on his submission defense much more, and of course learn more BJJ himself, and he'll be in the game wrecking faces. He has the strength, size, and is very athletic.

Once he gets some more experience he will be unstoppable.

I agree he could be a force, now we just have to see how good his chin is.

I'm curious to see how he handles getting punched or kicked hard in the head. He needs serious BJJ training though because he leaves himself heavily exposed - but then again with GNP like he has that shouldn't matter much as he gains experience.

I agree he has enormous potential and the plus side is that he doesn't have to learn all of BJJ - he just needs to learn how to avoid situations where someone losing a fight can catch a stray leg or arm and bend a victory out.
