[Lil Wes]

No.. Too much cash.

 

[C.M.]

Is Lesnar losing?

 

[THe WHoLe FuCKiN SHoW]

is there anyone who can give us an update on whether lesnar is winning or losing???

 

[thecruiser]

I don't think he's fought yet. I lost my stream, so I don't know what's going on.

 

[Kliq]

Lesnar tapped to a leg lock in the first round.

 

[Lil Wes]

It's over Lesnar loses.

 

[Grubbs0621]

I couldn't watch but what I read, Lesnar overpowered Mir, kept on knocking him down with punches. Lesnar got out of the armbar once but the next time Lesnar knocked Mir down to the ground, Mir got in a leg lock.

Even though he lost, sounds like he put up a good fight. Could be a legit contender

 

[edgelaf]

lesnar looked good dominated mir most of round knocked his ass down with a hard right and was ground and pounding away actually got a point taken away for hittin mir in the back of the head but then mir locked in the leg lock and WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Lil Wes]

A fucking leg lock...lolz...

 

[edgelaf]

damn rights a fuckin leg lock natch is proud WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[thecruiser]

Lesnar tapped to a leg lock? In the first round? What kind of bullshit is that? At least we still have the Nogueira-Silvia fight.

 

[edgelaf]

after the match was over angle jumped in the ring and challenged lesnar to come to TNA and brock said see you on the 10th!!!!!!

 

[Grubbs0621]

This is Lesnar's first UFC match, and it is against a former World Champion.

I don't think anyone actually expected Lesnar to win, just wanted to see what kind of showing he put up.

 

[Lil Wes]

A lousy one.

 

[Lil Wes]

after the match was over angle jumped in the ring and challenged lesnar to come to TNA and brock said see you on the 10th!!!!!!

^^

Yup.

 

[thecruiser]

Well, at least he showed up and performed. I was rooting for him, but I guess he was the underdog. Now we can look forward to Lesnar-Angle in TNA, and this Silvia-Nogueira fight.

 

[thecruiser]

Wow... they went to the ground pretty quick

 

[BooCocky]

Lesnar is gonna go stiff, and like kill Angle

 

[Total Impact]

Brock's a bust!

 

[thecruiser]

Nogueira wins with a guillotine choke on Sylvia for the UFC Heavyweight Championship. That was a great match.

 

[HellBoundPower]

Brock Lesnar pretty much killed Frank Mir. When Lesnar had Mir down on the ground the first time, he had it won. If Mir wouldn't have turned his head, Brock would've won. Mir turned his head, and Brock accidentally hit him in the back of the head, causing the ref to break them up. Mir didn't land a single shot on Lesnar, and got a lucky submission in. Brock impressed the hell out of me tonight. He has a bright future in UFC, he almost beat a former World Champion, but experience came into play. Mir was busted open real bad.

 

[hurrican5547]

Brock's second fight... he was fighting like a wrestler, against on of the best BJJ heavyweights, he was out of him element, give him time

 

[New MVP]

Lesner looked really good, to me Mir was dead for about 1 min and 20 seconds
but mir got a lucky submission in, and lesner tapped out but lesner looked
great in the match he beat the hell out of him, but the fans got frustrated cause the match was short everybody didn't expect that, by the way kurt angle, Under Taker, Stone Cold, Sable were there.

Impressive debut. The outcome isn't important. He'll come back from that loss better then Mir will the victory.

At least the heavyweight dividion has got an intresting fighter again. I propose a Cro Cop/Lesnar fight. Again the outcome wont matter, but I still want to see it.
