Lesnar COMPLETELY dominated Heath Harring it was like watching a snake smother his pray. It was very very impressive hell it should've ended in the first 30 seconds. Oh yea GSP won too but that was a givin.

Oh yea GSP won too but that was a givin. I wouldn't go so far as to say Brock completely dominated because if had done that he would have won in 30 sec. I do think that Brock came in with a game plan this time and looked like he had been training with noticeable improvement. I can't recall where it was said but I heard Brock's punches on Heath described as "being hit in the head with lunch boxes". I can definitely see promise in Brock, but they have to protect him much like Elite XC has done with Kimbo Slice if they really want to get some distance out of Brock's drawing power. If Brock had lost this fight without going the distance, it would have been done for him as a draw for sure. I hope the UFC goes with Lesnar vs. Coleman next as I think that would be a good matchup for Brock without him facing someone who can really expose his flaws. As for the Fitch vs. GSP match, I thought it was excellent and I have a new found respect for Fitch. Fitch took a beating at times but was always in the fight and was never rattled to the point of folding. As much as I am a mark for GSP, and he did look strong, I did not think it was his best fight, and at many points in the fight I believed GSP was still just a mistake away from losing. Overall UFC 87 was a great card and definitely worth checking out if you have not seen the show. |

Wow.
You wouldn't say Brock completely dominated? Was Brock ever in danger? Did Herring EVER mount ANY offence? Brock imposed himself physically and did whatever he wanted / was able to. Not being able to finish has NOTHING TO DO with his level of domination. He controlled Herring like a child and Herring had 42 pro fights under his belt.
Like Notorious T.I.D. says on this week's O Show --- if Fitch had fought anyone else in the division last week he would have won ... but he happened to be facing the best in the world. I t took everything for GSP to control Fitch and win it out.

All I can say is that if someone describes a fight to me as a fighter COMPLETELY dominating another fighter I would use an example of the Anderson Silva vs. James Irvin where the fight was over before it started. Any fight that goes the the distance like the Brock fight to me could not have one guy in "complete control" even if he had control of the tempo of the fight. |

Dude he had no amount of offense ZERO. That's complete control. So what it went the distance Heath Harring has a huge heart.

So from what I hear, to compltely dominate the fight can't go the distance, WTF.
What about GSP vs Koscheck at ufc 74 for example?

Yeah, Brock doesn't even have 1/10th the experience Herring does, yet Brock was able to make Herring--who definitely ain't no slouch--look completely ineffective and impotent. And like Fuego pointed out... Check out how extended Brock's punch was, when he knocked Herring on his ass in the first round. (He had very little power coming off his back leg/foot when the punch connected.) If he was half a step closer, and got more behind that punch, Herring's head would have ended up in Mississippi: |
