Cool site 
I know a few people on here watch it, what's your opinion on Lesnar- Mir?
Having seen Lesnar in person i can safely say the guy is the most amazing physical specimen i have ever laid my eyes on, fucking huge human being that is as athletic as a lightweight. I reckon he can go all the way to the title!

I have also met him in person, when he was in Manchester with WWE and stayed at the hotel by me. He is one big mofo!

Have to disagree with that he's the former NCAA national champion at wrestling, he's as quick as a hiccup.
If you stand toe to toe with him he's the size of a tree to take down if your on the deck there's little to no chance your going to outwrestle him. The only way i can see Mir win is if he gets a hold of his throat or his arm.

you talk to alot of wrestling fans who will agree, great physically but can be slow. granted hes probably worked alot on his speed and ability for this were he probably wouldnt have showed it in wrestling
i think he'll do well, would love to see a liddell v lesnar

Pro wrestling and ultimate fighting are 2 different ball games, he'll have been told to be slow and methodical in WWE.
Look at his fight against Min Soo Kim in K1 he had him on the deck punching the fuck out of his face within 15 seconds.

yeah he was slow and methodical but still arsed up alot of his scripted moves etc, i dont doubt his ability will be far superior in MMA , seen his fight with min soo kim wasnt much of a fight to check out his skills though TBF

You're talking about 1 botched shooting star press where he slipped on a top rope trying to overstretch himself, he was possibly the most flawless wrestler barring Angle that the WWE has ever seen. Mysterio would have struggled to reach where Angle was never mind a 6 ft 4 300lb chunk of solid muscle.
You're trying to compare a guy that fights junkies for money to a seasoned amateur wrestler. Tank Abbott will beat Kimbo never mind Lesnar.

He fought using the same name if you've not been watching it since the 90s you probably wouldn't recognise him.
He entered and became the youngest champion in history within a year or something daft then went to try and become an American footballer, failed went to Japan to wrestle then went ino K1.

There's a couple of videos kicking about of wrestlers turning a tad nasty, as can happen if you read any of their autobiographies. Foley lost his ear when Vader hung him up on the top rope for example in WCW who used elevator cable for ropes.
