Prediction: wrong Lesnar   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Lol at Overeem subbing Brock. That's comical. Could Overeem brain Brock just like Cain did? Absolutely, but mark my words if Lesnar is able to take Overeem down, it will look exactly like the 2nd Mir fight.

I will cheer for Overeem, but Brock will take him down and pound him out, as much as I cringe to type these words.

I do not like Brock Lesnar and I hope Overeem destroys him. I see this being like Brock/Cain. But I think Brock will whether the storm in the 1st only to get knocked down early 2nd and either subbed or TKOd.

Prediction: wrong Lesnar   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

Allistar the overatedreem will lose hes lost to top notch guys before shogun rua twice, sergei,little nog twice,chuck liddell,and ricardo arona,its his first time fighting in the ufc and its against top 5 fighter in brock lesnar who is always mentally tough. Reems last fight was horrible he was out striked by werdum occourding to the statistics the reason werdum lost was because he kept pulling guard.he wont submit lesnar A. because brocks huge frame. and B. because mir couldnt submit him in the second fight. brock doesnt have a weak chin hes just not use to getting hit look at the carwin fight carwin has the heaviest hands in the division and he still couldnt put away brock the reason cain put him way was he paced him self and set up the shots.also overeems biggest weakness is wrestling and conditoning, ALISTAR THE OVERATEDREEM IS GOING TO LOSE!

I still don't know who to pick for this fight.  I see it either going exactly like Mir 2 or Cain.

I dont know how all of you are going against lesnar, Yes overeem has better striking but he has less than 10 strikes to put lesnar out before he gets put on his ass.  WHo knows maybe brock will connect on alistairs slow ass and knock him out he cant take hits well either.  Only thing going against brock is the 2 surgeries and ring rust other than that i would say brock is a  lock but considering those two things he wins about 70% of the time.  Laughing at overeems last few fights......

Imagine Brock went out and knocked him out on the feet with a right hand? Everyone would have a panic attack, ha.

I'm surprised Alistair is the favorite in this.. even though, I have him ranked higher than Brock in the Top Heavyweights.. mainly because of Brock's illness and his last fight.

If Brock is 100%, he should be able to take it against Alistair. But, Alistair's definitely got a chance, too. It really could go either way.

Brock would be a lock if he didnt have surgery and have ring rust.  Having that said i think most of the people picking alistair are funny.

IM waiting on the weighins before i say anything for sure.  If overeem is smart hes training takedown defence like mad and bjj off his back.  

A lot of people forget reem was a bjj blackbelt way back in the pride days.  He has very solid grappling.  


Brock has a very good chance in this fight but for now im thinking reem hurts him a bit in round one gets taken down for the rest of the round then round two lands a knee that hurts brock badly and pounds him out on the ground.

That seems like a drastically less sensationalized article then the rest I've read.  Happy to see that.

Brock doesn't have a neck, so no way he'll get guillotined.
