Lesnar's a fighter, like I'm a rocket scientist. Ya know, I am in the army and have been through a combatives course. Maybe I'm a fighter too? Whatever. I almost hope the UFC does give Lesnar a fight with Couture. I'd love Randy to bash his head in within the first minute.
Lesnar's a good hype man due to his time in the WWE, but like said, he's fought a lot of "cans". Suddenly, he feels he's ready to face the elite of what he called the top promotion. To use wrestling logic... that's like getting a few wins over the Shark Boy's and Norman Smiley's of the world, then declaring, "Give me the Undertaker... I'm ready to end that undefeated WrestleMania streak!"
Lesnar's big, and he does have some skills, but the truth is he's unproven. Even if it were a lock that he had the skills to end Couture, the UFC isn't stupid enough to make that Lesnar's first match. You have to face a few contenders to get the spot. If not, why even have rankings?
