I think the roids or HGH talk is out of line now. Not saying he never took enhancements, but until he is a proven user, these claims holds no bounds. Lesnar also gets a lot of hate because of his WWE background. Fact is, he's a legit NCAA (D1 I think) champ. MMA was still in its dark ages when he was finished with college, so WWE was a natural and profitable venture.
While he has absolutely no submission skills (he couldn't figure out how to sink his hooks when he had Heath's back), he is obviously strong and still has a great wrestling base. Even scarier is he is so fast and athletic for a man fighting at 280lbs+ (he cuts to make 265). He's not going to beat Nogueira or Werdum yet, but he has only 3 fights professionally so far. At 31 years old, his time to learn is shorter than some of the up and comers in the division like Cain Valasquez (who I think is the future of the division), but he has the money to invest in good training and can do so full time.
I could have done without the nonsense he did, but Herring's camp talked a lot of shit backstage. Lesnar was supposed to also be the second guy out, but Herring's group veto'd that. They also said Lesnar was a step down in talent and Herring was insulted for not getting a contender to fight. I felt Herring was in the right though, but understand why Brock was a bit pissed.
GSP won like I thought he would. Jon Fitch did prove to me why he's #2 though as he took an ass beating and never gave up. He truly has a heart of a champion and a very classy guy.
On a side note, it doesn't look like BJ vs GSP is happening in Montreal, and it may not even happen in December. It's looking like Super Bowl weekend now, possibly in Hawaii.
I was disappointed in the Florian/Huerta fight as it was not as fast paced as I hoped. Huerta clearly needs more experience though against top guys as he kept going for that superman punch all night.
