No skill? Are you serious? He has plenty of skills and he is strong as can be, he just showboats too much. Not trying to be mean or anything, but I don't even think you would last 30secs in a UFC fight. I train MMA which takes tons of condition, and learning how to properly carry your weight for rounds. Not to mention slinging the 4oz gloves. Not that they are heavy but after awhile they can be, and 4oz gloves cover your knuckles only. Lower weight classes in boxing use 8 oz, and heavy weight use 16 oz. Now i'm not trying to seem like a jerk or anything, but before you say somebody has no skill because you may not like them or you don't believe they do, please don't put your 2¢ in. Not to mention he was the NCAA Wrestling Champion, which obviously takes no skill right?

thats just it tho. its my 2¢ LOL. dont get butthurt


im sayn he doesnt have skill bc his gameplan for every fight is put all like 5 tons of his body on someone, then ground and pound when he gets a chance.. thats BORING, and SHOWS no skill.

i dont think he showboats, actually after his first few fights, he seemed like he was REALLY humble. but after a fight where his opponent is talking crap, he had a right to rub it in his face ;)

nowhere did i say i could win a fight against brock lesnar LOL. i dont think the average human being, or even an above average human being would be able to last 30 seconds in a UFC with ANY fighter LOL. i would probably get my arm broken or my ankle dislocated, or just put to sleep haha

IMO, (and brock lesnars), i think he got to the top too fast (based MAINLY on his size), and he isnt a deserving champ. he said it himself in an interview b4 his fight against coutoure (dk how to spell it)

if i see him go in there, and STAND UP and not push someone against a cage during the first round, or if i see him NOT laying on a dude for an entire round, then i would be a little more impressed.

please dont get butthurt, bc it is as u say, just my 2¢ :D. we are all entitled to it.

You must not watch a lot of ufc though. He weighs in at 265, and hes 6'3.

To make a point i'll show you other heavyweight fighters, so how are you judging his size, he looks bigger then the others yes, but as far as weight goes, no:

Carwin Shane 11-0-0 6' 3" (191 cm) 262 (119 kg
Gonzaga Gabriel 11-4-0 6' 1" (185 cm) 242 (110 kg)
Hague Tim 10-2-0 6' 4" (193 cm) 265 (120 kg)
Herring Heath 28-14-0 6' 4" (193 cm) 250 (113 kg)
Kongo Cheick 24-5-1 6' 4" (193 cm) 240 (109 kg)
Lesnar Brock 4-1-0 6' 3" (191 cm) 265 (120 kg)
Mir Frank 12-4-0 6' 3" (191 cm) 240 (109 kg)

Yes on some fighters he has a weight advantage on but it also takes more training to carry that extra weight. I can tell you from experience as like I stated above that I fight MMA. Yes on some fights he will take them to the ground and resort to ground and pound, but you must of not watched the Frank Mir #2 fight. He tried to keep the fight standing up because of Frank Mir's ability to submission. Every fighter has different ways they prefer to fight.

For instance, i'm 6'1 180. In MMA when we do cage fights I fight in the Middleweight class. I'm taller, but some of the other fighters have a few lbs on me. With me being as quick as I am and having a good trainer, I can do standing up or I can go on the ground. I prefer to stand up though because it's my style of fighting.

ya, i understand the advantages of reach and weight (in terms of muscle / fat ratio) and we SAW that fight lol. i agree everyone has their own style, but IMO, his strat shows no skill.

sorry to the OP for kind hijacking this thread :bow:
neal if u wanna pm me about it? i like talking UFC, not arguing :P
at my house, we normally hav a bunch of ppl coming over to watch the fight cards, and we argue over it A LOT. some ppl say lesnar is smart for doing wut he does, and some ppl say he has no skill and all he does is hammerfist when he gets a chance, and push his weight on ppl.. LAME

I've never even seen Top Gear (Australia):O

1) law & order:SVU

East bound and down,Arrested development,dexter,wild recon,man vs food,no reservations,family guy,and last but not least motogp racing.

Deff meant wild justice an not recon

Good ones nobody else has mentioned so far:

Farscape
Firefly

(Unfortunately, both are no longer running, but are available on DVD and worth checking out if you like sci fi at all.)

Everybody else has covered most of my other favorites:

24
Heroes
Bones
NCIS
Dirty Jobs, Mythbusters, various other shows on Discovery

I'm not a fan of the various CSIs, because most of the science is pretty obviously bogus. Bones does a much better job with the forensics, and NCIS doesn't delve as deeply into that aspect of things, thus avoiding making as many screw ups. Both approaches work better with knowledgeable audiences than the CSI way.

I'm a big fan of firefly, but have not checked out farscape. One that I just finished watching not too long ago was Persons Unknown. It was pretty enjoyable.

Farscape sometimes takes itself a bit more seriously than Firefly, but it still has a fun side to it, the writing is pretty darn good, and it has the advantage of not having been killed off after only half a season. For quite a while it was my favorite TV show, bar none. :)

I think I'm missing some of them but I'm not at home so I can't tell for sure. :P
