Big guys are almost always universally useless on the ground against good grapplers. The way I see it is if Brock takes it to the ground he'll get subbed pretty quickly. Fedor's groundwork is just too strong.
Now the thing is Fedor's wild striking potentially has flaws which could land him in trouble some day. He leaves himself quite open alot of the times. Hong Man Choi for example really busted Fedor up in the stand up. If Brock places a well timed full power punch like Fujita did, together with his great wrestling he could win.

Yes Brock has reach and power, but hand speed he lacks. I saw enough against Herring to notice that. Brock wont have any time to throw a punch on Fedor, he's just too quick like a mongoose. The only way is if Brock could absorb his punches and hopefully still be coherent. Then throw a punches after Fedor blitzkrieg. But I dont know how tough Brock chin is. He could be in la la la land during that barrage of bombs.
I agree Fedor wild punching is all over the place, but he's actually faster then most fighters that punch straight. Its unsually fast for someone who throws bombs like that. I just dont see Brock winning this fight. Nontheless anyone still has a chance, but its very slim.
As for Fujita, yes he hit Fedor and stunned him well. But Fedor recovery time is unreal. Fujita couldn't finish Fedor in that situation, I doubt Brock could. Fujita is even more well rounded.
