Official "UFC 91: Couture vs. Lesnar" Discussion

[J]

THe UFC has finalized their UFC 91 card set for November 15th in Las Vegas that will see Randy Couture return to the UFC and defend his title against Brock Lesnar:



MAIN CARD (TELEVISED)

Champ Randy Couture vs. Brock Lesnar (for UFC heavyweight title)
Kenny Florian vs. Joe Stevenson
Nick Catone vs. Amir Sadollah
Gabriel Gonzaga vs. Josh Hendricks
Demian Maia vs. Nate Quarry

Found this on the net. Figured may as well start the thread for UFC 91 as it seems to be the thing on every ones mind. Sorry to steal your job XBA but figured since the card was announced we may as well start the thread.

First and foremost from this event, I hope Amir Sadollah gets the crap kicked out of him. I hate that bastard.

Now, onto more important matters...

I think Couture vs. Lesnar is a WIN-WIN situation.

If Couture wins, Couture vs. Fedor will happen. If Lesnar beats Couture that means Lesnar is better than Couture. There would be no reason for Couture vs. Fedor then!

If Lesnar wins, ...LESNAR WINS! How can you not be atleast a small fan of Brock Lesnar when you are on a wrestling forum? I hope he does that bullrush move he did to Herring, that was raw.

I might just have to order this because of the magnitude of this being the biggest fight ever.

Rating are going through the roof for this one and there is no denying that. This is going to be the first UFC PPV I rent ever and I know plenty more people who are going to do the same. Who are not even that into UFC but everyone knows this is going to be the fight of the century.

Be prepared to edit the champions thread with Lesnar on top of that list.

 

[xtremebadass]

I am glad this pulls people into MMA. Whenever Brock Lesnar fights it always creates a rukus. I liked rukuses. It's going to be a pure wrestling match, I don't think there's going to be too much standup. Both men are better on the ground.

^^Agreed weird things is with both these high class caliber fighters in this match, I don't see the match ending in a KO. I have a feeling that this fight will go to the judges and Couture will win on a decision.

 

[xtremebadass]

The judges will feel bad for Couture at the end and give it to him out of pity. Brock might not be that good, but he will manhandle Couture just with his size alone.

Here is the official trailer for UFC 91.

XBA's Another one that's counting out "The Natural"


Keep on counting Randy out, I believe he's gonna beat the hell out of Brock by using his amateur wrestling ability and tire out Brock by keeping him on him on his back. Randy's has always been the underdog in big-time fights and always has came out as the winning fighter. It's happened when he faced against Tito Ortiz, Chuck Liddell, and eventually Brock is gonna fall prey.

Expect UFC 91 to be a FUCKING classic ladies and gents.

 

[xtremebadass]

I am not counting Couture out completely. Couture is a legend and the greatest fighter ever. I am not saying Couture won't get a hit in, I think it will be pretty even, it will go a couple rounds, but if Lesnar breaks out some of his amatuer wrestling, I don't think Couture could combat the wrestling let alone his size.

Lightweight contender Joe ‘Daddy’ Stevenson got a
nice boost before his big UFC 91 fight on Saturday as he was awarded his Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu by highly decorated grappling standout and former BJJ world champion Robert Drysdale.
Stevenson, who has ended three of his last four UFC wins via guillotine choke, faces Kenny Florian this weekend in the co-featured bout of UFC 91 – Couture vs Lesnar at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Lets see what can he do against Florian.

 

[xtremebadass]

I am pulling for Stevenson, I was always a fan of his, plus I am not that big on Florian. I know he is a great fighter, highly dominant, but he never impressed me too much
