The biggest mixed martial arts fight in history is about to be made as there is huge excitement for this fight. Randy “The Natural” Couture (16-8) will take on his biggest challenge in fighting former WWE star Brock Lesnar for the UFC heavyweight championship.
At this point in his career Lesnar is a one dimensional fighter that can only use his size to lay on his opponent and land pot shots. Has he acquired the skills to become a full MMA fighter yet? Yes but to a certain extent. Because of his size Lesnar will pose a lot of problems for any decent MMA fighter but he has not gained the necessary experience to fight at the top level yet. Just look at his fight with Mir who is not even a top ten heavyweight. Brock Lesnar is still green when it comes to mixed martial arts and it will show against the smarter fighter
When it comes to wrestling, people think Lesnar he the advantage but it is Randy that has the advantage and is the more technical fighter. While Lesnar has more raw power and speed, Randy will be able to out wrestle Lesnar if this fight goes to the ground due to his experience. Brock just won’t be able to lay on top of Couture like how he did with Heath Herring as his wrestling background will be able to get out of those situations. We have seen Lesnar top control game but what about his defense game if Randy is able to gain top control. If Couture is able to get the top control I do not see Lesnar being about to get out.

I like your blog! I'm a big UFC fan, too. Lesnar is a joke-- I'm going to put money on Couture.
Can anyone shed any light on if this UFC 91 will be broadcasted on the setanta channel?
