Well he shouldn't of lost to someone that is 6*0 either way. A loss is a loss no matter how you put it.

Vitali wouldn't beat Brock in a MMA sanctioned fight wow!!

Yeah he world. Wow Brock knows how to do an armlock, leglock, etc but so would Vitali if he actually wanted to learn. Brock isn't a good fighter and I'll go one better and call him a very poor athlete. If you look at the dudes body he is flabby and would has **** for stamina. I love how MMA fans dismiss a world class boxer on the notion that they don't know how to do ground work, they could learn just like any of the guys in MMA. Unlike boxing where some have mastered the art with their hands none of these MMA fighters have mastered grappling(which is so flawed), legs, or takedown. Vitali learning takedown attacks and his superior reach, striking, stamina, and kicks would far pass anything Brock could do to him. You're dead wrong.

Exactly. brock ****ing sucks, and the fact that a pretender is the best in the UFC shows how crap those guys really are.

Anybody with half a brain knows Lesnar isn't the best in the UFC. He might be the best heavyweight; but that's not saying much. UFC suffers the same fate as heavyweight boxers. Why would world class athletes in America take up fighting sports when you can go play football?

Brock is a decent fighter who uses his strength and size to his advantage. Just as any present HW would do to somebody like Marciano.

It's your sports biggest draw so thats what we go off. Boxing is in the little man era and MMA is in a big man era.

Brock isn't a good fighter?? He's a champion isn't he?? And even before that he was a really good Collegiate Wrestler. He has better Stamina than Cotto though, I guarantee....even better than Majority of the Boxing Heavyweights. You make him seem like he's Chris Arreola .

Vitali would **** Brock in a boxing match but would get eaten alive a lot worse in MMA by Brock.

You're dead wrong, just cause you think Ray Mercer did it to Silvia every boxer can lol. That's just ignorant thinking.

[PinoyZoi]

I would rather watch Boxing, Fk all the majority views.

If Vitalli lands a right hand ton Brock when he goes for one of his telegraphed spears what do you think would happen?

Not really. MMA doesn't have a dominating division that people are interested in. HW's are interesting in that there is Lesnar and Fedor in different organizations and that Lesnar just won a fight.

It's no different in the boxing world. After a big fight in any weight class that weight class gets a lot of love on this forum and in general for a while after the fight.
