No I'm not kidding . Jonathan mentioned the lack of talent in the heavy weight division . Boxing had the same problem. This is because most of the guys that have the great combination of size and athleticism along with background go into legitimate professional sports. The guys that are left end up in the WWE , MMA . What ever. They might make it there and not have to work a real job. Why would any body go into the UFC for peanuts if they had what it takes to play somewhere legitimate and earn the big bucks. Even Lesnar was bright enough not to that. Now he doesn't have much choice.
Lesnar never proved himself as a world class wrestler. He was a guy who years ago had a nice college career before becoming a sports entertainer and now UFC heavy weight champion . Couture never got passed being an Olympic alternate back in the 1900`s. There's a million things I could add but this is a boa forum .
