Lesner's antics

So what's everyone's take on Brock Lesner. Great fighter, but really needs to tone it down in the attitude department, if you ask me. That post-win outburst was absolutely uncalled for.

I would say the sport doesn't need the attitude...but hey if it sells tickets and gets press...then maybe he is good for a sports on the rise.

Doesn't it do more harm than good, though? If MMA's trying to legitimize itself, become a top level sport, it doesn't need Mike Tyson style bush league antics. That'll just cause more and more people to dismiss it.

Yes and No.

I mean he got that other Heavyweight now blogging about him...so bad blood may brew and fans get to see a Frazier-Ali like match...fans side with the other guy (forgot his name) and against Lesner...I mean, what sport couldn't use a bad boy?

Re: Lesner's antics

I don't know, I think what he at 100 was a little over the top, it's not like he just won the belt he's been champ since November, WTF? Has the fact he's been champ for nine monthes not set in yet? Ok Frank beat him the first time and you turned his face into something no women would want to come within fifty feet of? WFT you've had the belt from close two a year now, get over it
