Phoenix Region, Fourth Round: Iron Man: (2) Andre the Giant vs. (6) Brock Lesnar

Actually we do Sly, I've watched a lot of Lesnar and other heavyweight college wrestlers matches with my coaches. Lesnar was almost always outworking his opponents in his matches due to his superior conditioning. I'm sorry but this will be something I disagree with you on.

I have to cite this video because I don't have all the dvd's and old tapes that my coaches have atm. But I've seen close to twenty matches Lesnar had when he was wrestling. I don't expect you to know the business of heavyweight college wrestling, but Lesnar in that match may look slow and stalling. But he is constantly trying to get wrist and hand control to open up his opponent for a shot or a power throw. Lets get this out in the open Hand and the whole Iowa team for years have been at the pinnacle of conditioning in college wrestling. Lesnar was dominate in the entire match, Wes hand never had the upper hand. Almost all shots and grounding were won by Lesnar. Of the shots the Wes had that he could of finished Lesnar worked away and stifled his attempts.

To your Ufc viewings, Brock is facing men of his own size and conditioning. I'm not going to argue that Andre for his size that he didn't have good conditioning. But really is he in the same shape as Carwin or Cain? Hell no he isn't, after looking up his previous weight training I found that in his prime Brock was doing a 720 pound dead lift. That is more than enough to lift up Andre. He was squatting 695 and compiled with an almost 500 pound bench that is more than enough to get Andre up in an F-5. While this was during his workouts for the Vikings, your citing Ufc as a reference for Lesnar's conditioning. I think it's fare to say that he could almost do that in the E'.

Sly he is in good enough condition to outwork Andre in his prime or at anytime. It would slow down in the later minutes, but Andre would be in if not worse shape than Brock. Brock wins this one.
