and that's just off the top of my head. The only new thing Brock added to it was calling out the sponsor. Something he obviously will not do again.
I hang on to that when people bash the sport but Lesnar is effing that up lol
Lesnar proved that the UFC is officially the new WWE. The outcome of the fight was predetermined, Mir didn't take a dive, but he obviously allowed himself to be beaten, the "drama" after the fight was pure fake wrestling bullshit. Lesnar creates controversy that promotes the WWE, er I mean UFC, so the idiot media outlets scoop it up and spoon feed it down your willing throats and you love the taste of their bullshit. They were even clever enough to include the sponsor in the drama, so not only would their name get repeated over and over, but all the viral media would pick it up and run with it. It was genious marketing and it worked. The fact that dudes are hitting each other doesn't preclude it from being a homoerotic soap opera.
Didn't mean to piss in your wheaties, but if you think promoters are going to leave the outcome of an event to chance where the winner takes 3 MILLION DOLLARS and the sponsors probably spent 20 times that, I can't help you. It's entertainment, nothing else, it's not a sport, it used to be, when it was smaller, when it was two guys, no weight class, no gloves, no rules, but it's not anymore. The UFC killed real MMA and replaced it with a slightly more believable pro wrestling bonerfest. If you had any respect for the sport, you'd boycott horse shit like this.Did your tinfoil hat fall off again?
Lesnar already has more money than 99.9% of UFC fighters. That's the one area where WWE is better than UFC. It makes soo much more money. Why else did Mayweather go there instead of the UFC, minus him probably realizing his ass would be kicked.no, lesnar is printing $100 bills with Dana's face on them. In his 1.5 years in the UFC, Lesnar has made more money than 99% of the other fighters. Including past champions.
