Herring will not manhandle lesnar but i wouldnt be surprised to see it the other way around. Lesnar had his way with Mir and you have to look at his credentials the man has a 106-5 wrestling record and a national championship he pinned his opponents 95% of the time that my friends if you knew anything about wrestling is more impressive than anything especially in DIV 1 school as in Minnesota. The skills you learn in wrestling transfer over to MMA and transition very easily into any move or reversal or takedown you can think of, there is alot more to wrestling than just trying to take the guy down for points, there is strength, speed, technique and conditioning involved. I will tell you this herring is not in the shape as lesnar is and anything can happen but i do not see herring winning this one unless something happens, i just hope that the same ref isnt reffing this one as in the MIR fight, that was bullshit no warnings no nothing. Anyways with all due respect Herring thinks he is going to walk in and walk all over Lesnar... he has another thing coming look at the man... he is a freak of nature and moves like a damn ferrari. Still the question remains can lesnar take a punch or a beating and keep ticking...i think so but that will be the test this saturday.. i will be watching and rooting for the future of this sport in Brock Lesnar...

But, I have seen straight wrestling mentality against straight jiu jitsu mentality. I know Lesnar has been training in jiu jitsu, but I think thats where the experience comes into play. I also don't see how his striking can be better. Stonger definately, but I don't know about better. Besides, these are exactly the things people said about Mir. Lesnar is a phenomenal wrestler, I just don't think he has adapted well enough yet as a mixed martial artist. I still say, give him more time and he will be great.

But Heath is a tough SOB from my home state so I've got to root for him in this one. I really like Brock and I used to be a fan when he was in the WWE.

I'm just glad he didn't go the chump route to get some W's. Herring is really experienced so I hope Brock knows what he's doing in there. Yeah Brock is throwing himself out there right away.

It proves he wants to be a true heavyweight contender and not just fight lower ranked fighters for huge sums of money..... Yeah sure he makes huge sums of money but 2 fights with 2 top heavyweights proves he is serious and not just out there to earn UFC some money from the pro wrestling fans, which is what i thought would have happened when i 1st heard he signed for UFC. As the fight goes its a tough one to call. Brock is by far the stronger man, but with all the experience Heath has i wouldn't be suprised if another rookie mistake costs Lesnar the fight.
