Velasquez has a decent chance but he will be at a serious size disadvantage,Dos Santos has to prove to me that he can stop a great take-down fighter before I give him a shot.(also huge size advantage.)

[randymerriweather]

@RelevantOne Lesnar will destroy Velasquez both are wrestlers but Lesnar is just too big this fight is tailor made for Brock to win

[hudline65]

lesnar will not survive valasquez and if he does...dos santos will take him out

[randymerriweather]

@hudline65 thats a negative both are wrestlers but brock is way too big dos santos is a small shane carwin win less power brock will go down in ufc history as one of the greats

[randymerriweather]

@ydsgen whats your point

[RelevantOne]

Really I was just trying to be optimistic about the fight.

[RelevantOne]

@randymerriweather Can't disagree there,if he was a greco guy like couture I would give him a much better chance.

@randymerriweather true, but again remember that a TKO does not necessarily mean you are unconcious, it means that you are getting pummeled and not defending yourself enough, and thats why the ref stops it. If he was knocked unconcious then it would have been a KO and not a TKO, so in that regard you are correct. But still it was a hell of an exciting fight. I hope they get a rematch soon, since nobody else in the division really poses a threat to Lesnar.

[randymerriweather]

@1norcal415 but if the guys punching power is decreasing and your able to kick the quy off you a couple of times your not ko'ed which was the case with brock shane had that fight but he gave it away at no point was brock ever ko'ed or did he tap your right he didnt intelligently defend himself but he was still conscious enough to kick shane away a few times which were indicators to the ref that he was not out of it even in a choke situation where the ref can see he will at least grab the wrist

[1norcal415]

@randymerriweather I've been watching MMA for years, and I can say with confidence that this fight should have been stopped. What you have to understand is that merely putting your hands over your face and praying is not an intelligent defense; you have to have head and shoulder movement, blocking, countering, or be attempting to get out of the position somehow. Lesnar was doing none of this. It reminded me alot of Ortiz vs Liddell 2, which was stopped due to this exact same situation. My $.02
