I would say no way in hell, Brock had a few good wins then got his ass handed to him by Cain and Overeem, UFC HOF should be reserved for legends like Hughes, Couture, Liddell and BJ Penn, guys who left it all in the ring and gave thier all for the sport

I don't think that Brock Lesnar deserves to be in the UFC HoF, but I do think he's more deserving than a few of the guys who are already there.
Charles Mask Lewis was a great man and will always be remembered for helping start the biggest brand of MMA clothing in the world, but the man never set foot in the octagon. I understand they wanted to honour him after his untimely death, but I'm not so sure this was the way to do it.
Mark Coleman, also made his mark in the UFC. Was a beast with his GnP. Was also an insane roid rager who did his best work outside of the UFC, in my opinion. What he accomplished in Pride should have no bearing on whether or not he deserves a spot in the UFC HoF.
Ken Shamrock also did some great things in the early days of the UFC, but I also thought he was a joke and I only ever enjoyed watching Tito get under his skin or beat him unconscious. He's always been such an open supporter of steroids and has been caught twice. Safe to say he's always juiced and always will.
Brock Lesnar may not have been around for long, but I don't think a fighter will ever capture a UFC title again with as little MMA training and as few professional fights as he had. He defended the title twice which is no easy task in the UFC's heavyweight division. He headlined UFC 100 and was always a gigantic draw for PPVs. Like him or not he was a HUGE star and I think more deserving of a spot in the UFC HoF than the three men that I mentioned.
