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.

Shut the fuck up you fucking moron. I'm on the Lesnar bandwagon, but it's clear as day that Nog would win.

Lesnar is 1-0 in pro MMA and has a year's solid training in MMA under his belt.

Fuck off you hater.

I didn't say he would win. I am saying I think he could win. There is a difference.

Nothing is certain in MMA.

Why not start this discussion when Brock has 10-15 decisive victories under his belt?

If that does happen.

I think Jason Von Flue could beat you.

Sorry, I just don't see Big Nog submitting Lesnar. I honestly don't think he could stop the take-down either.

I think Lesnar could do what Fedor did in the first fight, use his wrestling and power combined with GNP to win a decision.

And no I am not comparing Lesnar to Fedor. I am just saying that he could use a similar strategy that Fedor used in the first fight.
