Saturday Night I took in UFC 87 with two good friends. A few thoughts…
Brock Lesnar is a beast. He’s got no jujitsu game, but of course his wrestling background is immaculate. And his punches… the UFC had to custom make a size 4XL glove so he could compete. I thought that Brock’s reaction to his win was cartoonish and lacked class. But he won and gets to stay in the game for a while longer.
Georges St. Piere might be the best fighter ever. Regardless of weight class. Wow! However, I was impressed that Fitch was able to hang with him for all five rounds.
The opening fight however, was my favorite. Two jujistu players in a web of submissions attempts and defense. There was a lot of technique in that match. Something that doesn’t happen a lot with the heavy weights.

thanks for your thoughts Larry. I almost never watch the events, but I always read up on what happens to stay in the loop. Sounds like Brock Lesnar is the real deal. Even Matt Hughes said he went to the fight only to se Brock.
What weight class is St. Pierre in? I think there’s 5 right?

Welter-weight.
