Why was everyone talking about brock lesnar after the last ufc and not GSP

Question

It seemed like gsp's victory was way overshadowed by lesnars and ufc's heavyweight division is not the best. werdoum, noguiera, mir, kongo, cain, vera cant be the best heavyweights in the world

Answer 1

Everybody expected GSP to win easily. There was a giant question mark about whether Lesnar was wrestling hype or a real MMA fighter.  

Answer 2

Great answers here.  I would also add because GSP won and was a respectfull gentlemen as should be expected of a martial artist.  Lesner couldn't finish an opponent he clearly dominated and ran his mouth like he was still in the WWE

Answer 3

The GSP/Fitch fight went pretty much as expected for most people I think.  It was a great fight though.

I was pulling for Lesnar but after his antics after the fight that is over.  He should've stayed in the "rastlin' " world with all that sh*t.

I'm hoping Fedor signs someday soon and Lesnar gets that giant head all cracked up, then he can look across the ring and see how a man takes a win instead of the overgrown punk that he is.

Answer 4

It's because Dana (the douche) White is using that big, inexperienced fudgepak to line his pockets.  He is using Brock to bring more newbies to the audience.  And you are right about the ufc's heavyweight division.  It's NOT full of the best heavyweights.  All hail Fedor - Greatest heavyweight MMA fighter in the history of the sport.

Answer 5

bc its still exciting to watch Brock fight, and he did a pretty good job compared to how much training he has had, and he previous fight with Mir, GSP is just so good most people start to take it for granted, and are like.."oh just the usual GSP beat down"... with Lesnar its this factor of whats gona happen,

however GSPs fight was way better bc both guys where dishing out their very best all 5 rounds  

Answer 6

ok well gsp is in my opinion the best pound for pound fighter in the world now, if you look at his record, his only losses were avenged in a very one sided manner, and he has been fighting A level talent from the start, It's going to be a while before anyone beats him if penn can't do it, (I feel that he is the only real threat to GSP) assuming  that he beats penn, thiago Alves would probably be the number 1 contender, but I feel he should give anderson silva a shot.

Answer 7

Jon Fitch is just a grinder. GSP is in a different league to him. Everybody knew this before the fight so what's there to react to?

Forget Lesnar, why is nobody mentioning how BAD  Herring was? After the right hand he took early on, he didn't want to know. Let's hope Lesnar's next opponent is somebody who can work off their back.
