UFC 91 Lesnar vs Couture

I know a couple of you guys on here watch UFC, who is going to watch the fight tonight?

I think Randy is one of the best fighters in the UFC. He's well rounded, experienced, and he knows what to expect. But he's old. It's going to make my night if Randy knocks out Brock but I don't see that coming. It's going to be like a blown big block taking on a V6.

I have a bad feeling about this fight. Lesner is a mountain, literally, he has to cut 25 pounds to make 265. He's not very good yet, but the shear power is going to create problems for Randy. Go to sherdog.com for the wayin pics, randy looks like a welterweight, and he is a big guy. Couture needs to have good lateral movement to avoid Lesner's shot, if he backpeddles he is going down. The later the fight goes the better for Randy, but Im worried. On a side not, I hate dana white, Lesner has no business fighting for the title. Noguera is the interm champ after choking sylvia, Nog vs Randy is a dream fight for older fans, kinda of Pride v. Ufc. If Lesner gets past randy and when Nog k.Os Mir, at least we will see lesner get triangled.

Couture will win if he gets past the first round. After the first half minute or so I predict Lesnar is going to unload the BOMBs and if Couture gets past those and Lesnar drains himself...its all Couture. I give the fight to Couture if it goes past the first round and its going to be a hard fought battle for him. I bet Lesnar's corner is going to be mad at him if he unloads early.

I agree. However you look at it, it all boils down to money and the ratings. They do know how to draw a crowd and give them what they want.

I bet Lesnar has a glass jaw.

This is a very interesting fight. You can definitely make arguments for both fighters. I can't wait for it to start.

Personally, I guess I would like to see the old fart to do it again.

I'll be cheering for Randy. Lesnar is gonna be a huge challenge for him though. He was never able to finish Heath Herring, and if it goes past the third round, it'll be all Randy.
