I feel bad for Brock

[Liquidrob]

Brock is either loved or hated, thats how you make money, I take nothing away from him for that

Guys people dont care about don't make money

I like to talk skills, ability, rankings and stuff inside the cage, Brock was never, I repeat, never the number 1 HW in the world, he was a creation of the Zuffa hype machine, nothing more

He is big, strong, athletic, a freak, but besides his overrated wrestling skills he didnt bring much to the table, right place, right time, right promotion

Randy Couture isn't cutting promos for his next movie during a UFC PPV. The way Brock is letting the two intersect is just disrespectful to the sport and you have to wonder now how serious he is about MMA.

So when has Brock even talked about pro wrestling besides when asked after his early fights about his feelings towards the support his former peers showed him?

 

[Liquidrob]

Lets talk about a legit wrestling monster who is coming to MMA

Mijain Lopez, he is an Olympic Gold Medalist and a 4 time World Championships Gold Medalist, Heavyweight greco roman

6'5'' 275, just 27 years old

Dana has talked about how much he and Brock have butted heads lately, how he wanted time off, their different views moving forward, etc. So obviously that says to me that Brock was interested in going back to the WWE temporarily, but like Empire said Dana didn't allow it. So, had the situation been different, Dana allowing Brock to go back and Brock not coming off of a loss, I'm sure he would have confronted the Undertaker as planned and cut their promo.

Either way the fact remains that he was interested, so again how serious is he?

If you guys think Brock is humble then I'm probably not going to convince you guys on anything.

You're reaching. Nobody knows what Brock thought since he has never commented on pro wrestling publicly.

Supposedly, Brock wanted time off to spend with his family and hunt. Then UFC came calling with the Cain fight and he took it.

Nothing happened between Brock and WWE besides Vince perhaps putting feelers out.

I've never met Brock so I don't know if he's humble. Judging from his actions on the night of the loss, I'd assume so.

In wrestling that works, since that's the whole premise. But I'm not buying a PPV to see someone fight that I'm not interested in or don't like. The notion that people pay money to see someone they don't like get beat up is silly. Would a guy like Koscheck be able to carry a PPV on his own? Better yet, how would Tito vs Matt do as a main event? The bad guy thing only works when it's legitimately a good fight, an interesting fight with personalities aside. So basically Brock can be the most hated guy in MMA, but if he keeps fighting like this he won't be making the money he is now.

You posted that Dana said no to allowing Brock to go to the WWE. So for him to say no, Brock has to ask right?

 

[Steel Mamba]

& c'mon Undertaker isn't going to ask him, 'do you want to do it' unless these guys have talked about something

 

[EmpireWF]

1. Dana responded to all the rumors and media reports.

2. Nobody knows what the hell Taker meant with his question.

 

[Kuzzy Powers]

I thoroughly enjoy that this Undertaker shit is drawing more talk and attention then Cain Valazquez being the HW champion of the world. Haha..

Just dont be surprised by anything..

This is the wrestling forum afterall :smug:

This is not meant as a knock, but you don't understand wrestling.

Undertaker is a veteran of the game, he saw an opportunity to create buzz and cause a stir, and he took it. And obviously it worked. There is now more buzz for a match that will never happen, than anything else Vince can do for WrestleMania.

And who cares if they approached Brock? How can you hold that against Brock? Again, he has never spoken a word about any of this. Plus Dana already shut it own.

Are you aware of how many 'serious' MMA fighters have done and currently do pro wrestling between fights?

It's a good, easy payday. I'll never understand why people get so uppity about it.

This was Vince & Undertaker trying to create a buzz. Brock blew them off. Speculating on what would of happened had Brock won seems like a stretch, no?

 

[Cornelius]

I love how all the MMA guys are dismissing him after the loss because he was a pro wrestler.
You can hate on Lesnar all you want, but the guy gave UFC numbers they never could have gotten without him.

What? Do you ever pay attention to MMA? People dismissed him a while back because he had 5 fucking fights. Why are you in this thread?

 

[Liquidrob]

oh, and lol @ people who thought Brock would beat Fedor, he would punch a hole in his head, imagine the sound it would make if THE REEM landed a Uberknee to his dome

Did you guiys believe the hype that post 'sickness' Brock would be twice as good as before like that shit Dana was feeding everyone?

 

[EmpireWF]

oh, and lol @ people who thought Brock would beat Fedor, he would punch a hole in his head

We'll never know.

 

[Cornelius]

We'll never know.

Maybe, when Brock falls off like Sylvia did and Fedor can make a 34 second commercial spot out of Brock too.

And why do you hate Brock?

 

[Liquidrob]

a lot of wisdom is this thread

 

[Liquidrob]

Lesnar will go back to the training grounds, get better, and come back stronger, smarter, and with better endurance. Book it.
