I have never been a Brock supporter, fan or anything that could be construed as that, but for some reason Brock has really earned a lot of my respect lately.  Out of all the people that have done an in ring retirement lately he is the one I believe the most.

Thanks for helping MMA grow Brock, you brought a lot of nitwits with you but you definitely helped spread the sport.

I thought I compared it all before the main event and there was someone who I couldn't beat because we had the same pick, and they were already up by 25. 

Point tallying might not be done yet.... or maybe I was just mistaken...

@Mystical No Im hating on Lesnar cause Ive never liked the guy, as a fighter. I think its actually good he is retiring for his health. Oh and when I said worse UFC card I meant as far as my picks go not like the fight card was bad lol I though it was a damn good card actually

Props to Brock for hanging with MMA guys for a while.  Well-roundedness is ruling MMA days.  The death of pure-wrestlers is coming very soon.

I think Lesnar retiring with only 8 fights is a little different from Jens Pulver who has 42.  Just saying.

I guess he's going back to Vince Mcmahon for a jo where he has to take much less agony and emarrassment. He did alot of impressive things I never  thought he would but Overeem payed his dues 10 times more than Lesnar and it is his time on top. I think he got the edge on JDS given his extreme experience as a top striker and the fact that he is etter than ever.
