    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    I don't mind a guy like Ortiz making a bit more since he is a drawcard but I think across the board the pay needs to be higher. Even Diaz only made $37k before the win bonus and his fight was the second to top fight on the night. How he (and Cerrone) are not getting at least six figures...

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    Sucks for Overeem that he has to wait before he gets his massive paycheck. Hopefully he can sort out the legal issues so that he can get his money. With the other pay rates for the fighters I am still surprised that the fighters under the mainevent are paid so little. The live gate alone was...

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    If he doesn't want to fight anymore then he can't make him fight. I am sure there will be a payout and maybe Dana will ask Lesnar to stay around for a bit to promote UFC for a bit longer.

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    Thanks for the link Ben. Seems like Lesnar kept this to himself and didn't give any indication that he would be leaving.

    Anyone know where I can watch the press conference? They never show it here in Australia. Is it on ufc.com?

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    Once he was hit he didn't really put up much defence and it seemed like he just wanted it to be over without too much pain. Amazing that he retires with a 5-3 record and yet he had an eventful and successful MMA career.

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    Definitely can't see him appearing at the Rumble, he will take plenty of time off before he makes any decisions about his future but I guarantee that he will have one more match in WWE since WWE will be offering him millions of dollars for one more WM match. Overeem made the move over at the...

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    He will do a deal with WWE to do a match like The Rock did either at WM29 or WM30. Big loss for UFC since Lesnar was a money making machine for them. Be interested in hearing what Dana White has to say in the press conference after the PPV.

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    I actually trust his word as well that he is done with MMA, I can't see him being one that will come back again and again.

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    Good man to think about his family and his health. Vince will be over the moon right now and he will be sending a call Brock's way immediately.

    OH MY GOD! Brock has retired from MMA! 1/2/2012 :D

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    I wonder if this will cause some more damage to his intestines, didn't really want to continue after that last kick to the liver. Overeem vs. Dos Santos is a good standup battle.

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    Is that it? Can't believe that it ended that way. Lesnar tried to stand and it didn't work, he needed to go for more takedowns.

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    Overeem really going for Brock's midsection, maybe thinking that it will still be vulnerable after Lesnar had all that surgery.

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    Lesnar is trying to stand with Overeem. Interesting strategy since I expected him to shoot for a takedown right away.

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    I see it lasting more than a minute, I even see it lasting into the second round. I don't think that this will be a snap finish as soon as the fight starts.

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    Good to see Overeem finally in the UFC, some may think that he is overrated but he is still one of the top heavyweight fighters around and it is good seeing him fight in the UFC against the best there is. These guys are both beasts and I really can't see it lasting long but if it does then...

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    Good win by Diaz, surprised that one judge scored it 29-28 I thought that it was 30-27. Can't wait for this mainevent!

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    Diaz in complete control so far and Cerrone will have to finish him to get the win.

    UFC 141: Lesnar VS Overeem

    I agree that Diaz and Cerrone will be FOTN simply because I see that going into the third round whereas I can't see the mainevent getting out of the second round.
