    People need to remember that prior to getting caught in that kneebar, Brock was dominating Frank. Kind of surprised to hear that Matt Hughes who was a D1 All American himself was so dismissive of someone who did much better than he did. Brock was in the finals in back to back years, competing in the best conference for wrestling in the B10.

      I think Brock fought so hard bc he wanted to prove he could do it but instead of being patient with a submission artist like frank he went full blast into a leg hold . The second fight frank took a beating.

    Man, glad to hear him mention Stephen Neal. That dude was an absolute monster. He was signed by the NE Patriots in 01 as an undrafted free agent and won 3 Super Bowl rings playing right guard. He’s only one of a handful of people to ever win a ring without ever playing college football.

      @@PringlesCan-y7m from the national wrestling HOF website:
      “Stephen Neal won three Super Bowl rings as an offensive lineman for the New England Patriots, but it was his wrestling career that paved the way.”
      He was on the roster for the 01, 03, and 04 Super Bowl Champion NE Patriots teams (although in 03 he was injured for the season and was on an injured exclusive rights free agent deal and didn’t sign his tender until after camp began, and did not count against the roster limit). He won 3 rings.

      @PringlesCan-y7m Год назад +2

      @@Yeswewillreplaceyou From his signing in 2001 until the start of the 2004 season, Neal was on injured reserve or inactive all but 2 games which the patriots lost both games, Neal only started one of those games and didnt play much because he got hurt again. He wasnt even on the patriots roster for 2003 even as inactive. He came back in 2004 season and won the superbowl against the Eagles. 1 ring. He never won another as we all know what happened in 2007 and he retired in 2010. He played in 2 superbowls during his career. 1 win, 1 loss. The term "rings" is a bit of a joke these days, as there's no standards and teams hand them out to friends and family pretty much. They generally give away 200+. And no player with any sense of pride will claim the deserve one when they didnt even put on a uniform the entire season. Steve Neal has one ring. He beat the Eagles. Well deserved.

      @samuellp1146 Год назад +1

      ​@@PringlesCan-y7m Fortunately for him the Patriots disagree with you. He won 3 rings because he's still with the team (whether you're active on the roster or not most teams just give you the ring in most sports teams). Why give him the ring? He's a Patriots player. Rings are given to players who are in some form or capacity on the team, injured, bench riding, active inactive, that's been the norm for years. Fans can argue the player didn't earn the rights to a ring but thankfully they don't, that call for the players is for the organization to make.

He wrestled bigger guys and even in football Kurt was a moster linebacker in highschool and could have done it in college but decided to focus on the Olympics. If kurt trained MMA he would have destroyed alot of people especially in the late 90's to mid 2000s when he was still going hard and hadn't broke his kneck another 4 times.

    Even if you discount Brock as some WWE fake, you don't see guys that size moving the way he does. And the endurance of doing a 20+ minute match at 300lbs is not something to sneeze at either. But a freak in terms of size AND speed. He just needed more a striking background of 5 years or more.

      If Brock had gotten into mma straight out of college he may of seriously been in contention for greatest hw of all time if not greatest mma fighter all time. The athleticism of that dude in his early WWE days was absurd for how big he was. People just want to bash him with no context and while not truly understanding that he joined the ufc with nothing but a wrestling background and a few years of training at 30 years old and still became champ.

    I watched all the prefight footage back then, including Frank Mir interviews, and he didn't talk like that about Brock Lesnar back then.
    He didn't talk like Brock was a walk in the park either, but he definitely underestimated him, before the 1st fight and before the 2nd fight too.
    That's why Frank wanted a third fight BADLY... He even gained weight in order to be harder for Brock to control (I don't think that would have worked though)
    It was after the 2nd fight when Frank realized what a force of nature Brock Lesnar was.

      I don't think so. Steroids aside, he beat a few guys who were historically bad at defending off of their back (Hunt, Mir, and Herring), he beat Randy Couture after Randy had been out for a year, and Shane Carwin was handling him pretty easily before he gassed badly. Credit to him for getting through those guys with limited experience, but the true, top tier guys he fought like Velasquez and Overeem walked through him with no problem. I estimate that dos Santos, Werdum, Cormier, and those types of guys would have always been out of his league.
