I don't follow this stuff too closely but was pretty interested in this one-Can't imagine anyone pounding Lesnar that badly. Did you see it? The "after: pictures were brutal.

I did indeed see the fight...Lesnar took an incredible beating. I heard that Velasquez landed 50-55 shots on him in less than a round. In one of the prelims Diego Sanchez ...he's a lightweight fighter that is thought of as being "busy"...landed 70 in a three round fight.
Not sure what to think of Lesnar right now. He damn near got ko'd in his last fight and he took a beating in this one. Maybe he's got a flaw in his stand up game...can't defend moving backwards...or maybe the health issues took a toll on him.
Don't be surprised if Lesnar takes on the Undertaker in some fashion at Wrestlemania. They did a little post fight "angle" Saturday...'Taker was getting interviewed on camera and lesnar walked by and they had a bit of a staredown...it looked a bit contrived...

I think that sort of thing cheapens the MMA IMO-not that you could cheapen it much, but it is sort of like a real sport- hate to see guys crossing over and doing the wrestling bit even though a lot of them came from there. Like Ali fighting the Japanese wrestler back in the day. I'm gonna have to watch for a replay sometime.
