What about Lesnar’s tactics did though? Do you watch pro wrestling? I’m intrigued as to what MMA fans are seeing as “pro wrestling”? The last time I saw a pro wrestler win a match, he did nothing of what Brock Lesnar did.

You are half-right. MMA is not mainstream yet. Close, but not quite there. Hendo’s second shot was fine, the fight wasn’t stopped. What he said afterwards was questionable…but not unduly. Lesnar though, damn. Getting in Mir’s face after the fight, haven’t really seen that except once or twice. Flipping off the crowd? Really? Putting down a main sponsor? UFC is becoming more and more like WWE with bullying tactics of fighters, a business machine instead of a sports opportunity. Lesnars actions just took the entire scene further down that lane. I guess it depends on where the UFC wants to go. I’m starting to tune out, and I’ve watched just about every UFC since the 1st one.

I’m not a big fan of the total lack of respect Lesnar shows, but certainly nothing really wrong with it. He didn’t cross any lines, and I enjoy the idea of “thinking about the kids at home” when the event is on TV. I can hear it now…

“Now watch this Timmy, two large men are going to punch one another until they are bloody and one of them either goes to sleep or begs for mercy”.

“COOL DAD”.

“I might get on my wife…”

“I can’t believe he said that in front of children!”
