Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted October 15, 2018 Author Paid Members Share Posted October 15, 2018 I always kind of hoped we'd see Lashley in the UFC. Don't know why because whenever I saw him fight I wasn't blown away and he's got fuck all in the way of charisma or personality. But they can always do with more heavyweights. Wasn't there talk of Lashley being on TUF a few years back or have I dreamt that? Weird dream if so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewster McCloud Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Lashley/Brock is a no brainer at some point, somewhere, surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted October 15, 2018 Author Paid Members Share Posted October 15, 2018 That's one for Rizin. Let them juice! I'm actually hoping that, before he finally retires for good and becomes a full time recluse, we see a few more Roidy Lesnar fights in Japan. There's a Rizin run to be had there. Lesnar vs Sapp, Lesnar vs Akebono, Lesnar vs Cro Cop...dare I say it, Lesnar vs Fedor! And he could always pop into Bellator to smash Frank Mir again and finish that trilogy and Mir's career in one go. I'm not even joking when I say I'd rather see this scenario than him back in the UFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewster McCloud Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I would mark the fuck out for Lesnar/Fedor. I don't care how old, shells of them former selves or juiced they are, I just want to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted October 15, 2018 Author Paid Members Share Posted October 15, 2018 Yeah. And as much as I hope this DC vs Brock fight happens, and I'll be as swept up in the buildup as anyone, I don't think it's a fight that we had to see. When Brock finally disappears into the wilderness I think the fight everyone will look back at that should've happened will still be Brock vs Fedor. Certain fights like that just got away. Fedor vs Randy was another, GSP vs Anderson and if you want to go really old school, Kazushi Sakuraba vs Frank Shamrock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lashley as an MMA fighter never really caught on. You'd have thought he'd have followed a similar path as Brock but Lashley seemed to wanna come up the more traditional way. Its actually a shame he's gone full time with the WWE again because id have loved to have seen him enter the Bellator HW Grand Prix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 He's not got all that bad a record really. 15 wins, 2 losses, 4 KO's, 8 subs and three decisions. 32 when he made his debut, so he wasn't a young fella. Did okay to be honest, and could probably still win a couple at heavy in the UFC against guys on the fringes of the top 10 I'd imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted October 15, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted October 15, 2018 I think he might do a little better than that. Lashley abandoned any sort of development toward the end and just went straight wrestling, over 3 rounds thats a hard man to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we've not really seen how he takes a good punch yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted October 15, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted October 15, 2018 Well, i dont think he particuarly fond of getting caught up in a striking battle. His gas tank failed him badly a couple if times but he had things so much his own way towards the end of the career it was hard to really know if he improved in that department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted October 16, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted October 16, 2018 Yeah. It made Roman's dig about Lashley being shit at MMA even more puzzling a few months ago. All things considered, Lashley has a respectable MMA record. Again, made poor Roman come across as a muppet to those that spent any time checking out Lashley's wiki page.

TildeGuy~! Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Rockholds pulled out with an injury, Souza is the favourite to step in. Also Cormier said he had to postpone a WWE commentary tryout prior to accepting this fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimufctna24 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Oh ffs. I was looking forward to Weidman vs Rockhold 2 as much as the main event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted October 20, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted October 20, 2018 DC can't wait to get shit talked by Vince. Â Quote âI like it,â Cormier said of WWE commentary. âI want to freak out. I want to freak out next to the thing with Vince in my ear saying, âSay this, you asshole!â Because I heard Vince tells you what to say. Iâm like, âOK, Vince.â Donât be surprised if Iâm on TV and a couple times I go, âOK, OK, OK, OK.â And just say it.â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
