Big Nog vs Lesnar
I want to see this fight. I know all you guys will jump in and flame me, saying that big nog would 'destroy' him in 30 seconds. I also know we haven't got to see Lesnar's stand up game, sub defense and how well he can take a shot.
Nevertheless, I think this fight would be a make or break fight and would really expose Lesnar for what he is. The 'next big thing' or just another hack who couldn't cut it in mma.
Big Nog has the striking on his side, but doesn't have KO power. We don't know how well Lesnar can take a shot, but I am going to go out on a limb and say that he doesn't have the power to KO him, nor would even get the chance to showcase his striking ability as he would likely end up on the mat within a minute-he can't stop the take down.
Lesnar has the wrestling and power over big Nog, much like Fedor did in the first fight. Fedor over powered Nog, and mauled him the whole fight. He didn't go for sub attempts and basically powered out of the submission attempts. I believe Lesnar could do the same thing and 'shock' the mma world.
I just don't see him submitting him from his back with ease. I believe Lesnar could power out of a lot of his submission attempts, just like Fedor (the huge underdog, and pretty much unknown fighter at the time) did in the first fight. I am also sure he would be training in submission defense.
I think this fight should happen. I'd rather see that fight, then a third Herring fight.
