Why would anyone be surprised Lesnar pummeled Mir on the ground?
Well, everyone knew that Mir's gameplan was to get the fight to the ground, I just don't think it was in his gameplan to get his face pounded in until the refs took pity on him and called it. FWIW Mir talked a LOT OF SHIT on Brock, beyond the "sell the fight" he basically called the guy a fraud and talked about how he was going to expose him again.
The thing is, Lesnar is improving, he didn't let Mir have any advantages, every time he tried to do somethinhg Lesnar was patient and just adjusted him and continued to beat the crap out of him. It seems like no one respects what Brock does, he's a good wrestler and has a mean punch, combine the two, play to your strengths and see the outcome.
I like Brock, I like Fedor, I like guys who go out there and prove themselves time and time again, I would love to see Fedor in the UFC but I doubt that will ever happen. Both parties are too damned stubborn for their own good, but there's a lot of money there, and both know it. Fedor can survive without the UFC for now, maybe that will change but as it stands they keep throwing people at Fedor and he just destroys them.
