Frank is walking around right now at 284, so sayin Lesnar is still bigger than Frank would actually be a bad thing because cutting all that weight will shorten your gas tank and weaken you. Look at Rumble Johnson he cuts 30-40 sometimes 50 lbs before fights and he looks exhausted in the 2nd round.

Heres the difference betwwen Mir and Lesnars strenght. Brock is farm boy strong while Mir is weight room strong. What I mean by that is You can be of equal strength in weight room, but what gives Brock that edge is his up bringing. We all know of guys taht have that innate strentgh about them that are way more powerful than they look. Brock looks strong, but in reality is stronger than you even think he is. With the exception of Mir these other guys havent really fought anyone. Nog is in the twilight of his career he has lost like 3 in a row I think so the Cain win doenst prove a lot. Brock like GSP, Spider, and Penn really have no challengers to face. Right now all 4 of those fighter sout class evryoen in their weight class.

Just watched MMA Live and they said it is still a Title Fight

Cain Velasquez is a upcoming star in the heavyweight division but he is not big enough yet to compete against lesnar or mir. i think if he fought catchweight 215 or maybe even drop down to 205 he would dominate.

That would be asking alot from Velasquez who weighs in at 245-250. It looks like he's trying to put on some weight.

Cain is a beast. To say he can't compete with Mir is just plain wrong. I'd be willing to put even money on him against any heavyweight out there, even Lesnar, whom I am a big fan of.

Just like Mir doesn't have the strength to compete with Lesnar. :mrgreen:

The comments Mir made are truely immature and proves that he is extremely jealous of Lesnar, hopefully this comes back to bite him HARD!
