I agree that Lesnar's cardio is unproven, but he was an elite wrestler before he started WWE or MMA. Has there ever been an elite wrestler (i.e., NCAA champ, Olympic team, etc.) that didn't have great conditioning?

If anyone thinks that Mir is going to come into this fight in bad shape they are retarded. I don't understand how ANY human being could go into a fight with Brock Lesnar in bad shape. Do you guys think he is some kind of retard? You don't even have to be an intelligent fighter...or PERSON to be motivated to be in shape for this match. Please, anyone with an I.Q. over 10 would come into this fight in the best shape possible, unless they want to discredit their EXISTENCE forever! haha

From his pre-accident fights vs. Ian Freeman and Wes Sims to his post-accident fights vs. Marcio Cruz and Dan Christison, Mir's conditioning is among the worst in the UFC. How is that uncertain?

Mir's conditioning is almost as certain as BJ Penn's jiu-jitsu or Chuck Liddell's overhand right, but it's certainly bad, rather than certainly good (in BJ or Chuck's case).

Compare that to Lesnar's chin. When has anyone seen him punched in the face? Never.
You could have taken those words right from my mouth, hence why my voter went to brocks chin (The only ? there!)

Wow, I can't believe someone with your post count would say something as RETARDEd as this. If you think Lesnar became an NCAA finisher with QUESTIONABLE cardio than you either never wrestled before or never competed in anything physical. Although it is true that cardio for wrestling is pretty different than cardio when it comes to striking....Lesnar is still in phenomenal shape.

True but that isn't a sign of cardio, the subject of this thread.
