From the Interview
In many cases you have been considered an “underdog,” yet you keep proving your doubters wrong. What are your thoughts on them?
BL: I have never viewed myself as an underdog. I have never paid much attention to those who think I am not ready or that view me as an underdog. The thing is that in life you always have to prove yourself. Respect, in my opinion, is earned and I have no issue earning it. The biggest thing is that I never have a doubt in my mind about whatever it is I am doing.

I think Brock is cocky, but I like it. He has the chance to be a dominant champion in the near future. I remember a while back that there was a thread about creating a SHW division because Brock is so huge and I thought that it was stupid a while ago, but thinking about it now it makes sense. I'm not saying they should, but I could see the sense in it because a person that is as big as Lesnar, but also fast and super athletic is a deadly combination. Carwin is close to around Lesnar's size, but not very many guys in the HW division are as big.

He wasnt cocky. He was being very truthful.
You mainly think he is cocky because you dont like him. I dont like him, but he seems very truthful. Great interview. Shocked he gave you guys one.

The guy who did this interview, if I remember right, is a huge Minnesota wrestling fan and has been following Minn. wrestling and writing for them from time to time for years.

The guy is a monster and is a good figher. I dont know why people are gonna wait to figure this out. Its clear that he is a mismatch for everybody he fights. Makes it tough to beat.

Too bad you didn't ask him why he wouldn't sign an autograph for my ten year old son when he waited for him after a WWE event. He is a beast however and a force to be delt with. Good luck Mir

Are there other details about your training you don’t mind sharing?
BL: Marty (Morgan) has been huge in
cycling
my camps and setting up my training schedule. Camps can get pretty stale and Marty does a great job of mixing things up and keeping it fresh.
I think he might just threw a couple of extra words in that sentence... LOL...

Some of these comments crack me up.
For the guy that did not get the autograph e-mail me at viratas95@gmail.com and I will get you one for him.
Brock is a down to earth guy and and may come off as cocky but in reality he is not. He is private guy. Also nothing was added to the interview. Their will be several more leading up to and after the Mir fight

And Viratas is serious about getting the autograph

All the Lesnar haters out there just can't get it through their heads that a guy can have skills if he hasn't been in MMA all his life. Brock was in the WWE. So what? He clearly has whatever "it" is that makes a potentially great fighter. I'm a huge Mir fan, but I have to admit I like Brock in their next fight, and I don't see anyone on the horizon that poses a serious risk to him. He has sick athletic skills that go a long way toward making up for his ever-improving striking, and he gets more and more dangerous by the day. I don't necessarily like the way the UFC paraded him out, but the guy was a huge (no pun intended) star in the WWE and wasn't about to start his MMA career at county fairs in Minnesota. I think he's going to be great for the sport as more and more pro wrestling fans (and maybe wrestlers) follow him to where it is "as real as it gets". Many of these guys have great athletic ability, warrior hearts, and big fan followings.
Compare him to Kimbo Slice. Slice is a guy who has done nothing BUT fight, he gets to a major MMA promo with blaring headlines, and lands on his a$$.
Lesnar is for real!
