It’s a blockbuster night for the UFC on Saturday:
…Saturday night’s fight will be a spectacle, and deservedly so. The sport’s greatest living legend, the 45-year-old Randy Couture, takes on the enormous Brock Lesnar, a former NCAA heavyweight wrestling champion who made a career in professional wrestling before returning to legitimate sport and giving MMA a try.
The 31-year-old Lesnar is a genetic freak of a man (6 ft 3 in/265) who you might recognize from WWE, ya, that’s right…World Wrestling Entertainment.
Couture is a class act…and at 45, the dude is in better shape than 99% of people half his age on the planet.
I think the long-time UFC ref says it best:
John McCarthy, who has worked as a referee in the sport since the second UFC event in 1994, calls the fight “The classic matchup — probably the most physically impressive man in mixed martial arts (Lesnar) going against the most mentally impressive man (Couture).”
It’s kind of interesting, the NBC article goes on to compare this to a more exciting time in the world of boxing:
…if Lesnar beats Couture in dominant fashion, it could be a star-making performance similar to Mike Tyson’s 1988 knockouts of Larry Holmes and Michael Spinks.Two decades after the pinnacle of Tyson’s career, big fights have virtually disappeared from water-cooler conversations in America. But if there’s a fight that can change that, it’s Couture vs. Lesnar.
Professional boxing is in for it if UFC keeps bringing big matches like this.

This’ll give you a better idea of Lesnar’s freakishness:
