i got a question for the guys who know the ufc fight game
if brock lesner trained hard for a couple years do you think anyone out there could beat him in nhb fighting?

The guy is a huge fucking monster, but I'm guessing he has zero striking skills.
That's the really hard shit to learn.
If he faces a guy his size that really knows how to strike (like Jerome LeBanner if he ever gets into MMA) and that guy can avoid being taken down, or can tire Lesner out so that he can be an easy target, then he's fucked.
But, if he seriously dedicated himself to it, within a few years, he would definitely be a threat to anyone. He's a big, bad dude.
As long as he was handled and trained properly and not rushed to the top, he would have a serious chance.
You'll never see it, though. there's just not enough money in the UFC right now.
Replace 'Jerome LeBanner' with Cain Velasquez (well, Brock did take Cain down, problem for Brock was Cain was able to get right back up).
Rogan really nailed this entire analysis though, gotta give him credit. The last sentance is funny, because 2 or 3 years later the money all of a sudden was sunstantially better in UFC compared to pro wrestling. Where would Brock be if he had that head start?
