    Wouldn't mind it.

    Especially would be a good test for Cain's shoulder.

    I dont want to see it yet. Has Brock even brought in a Boxing trainer? Brock is really secretive about his training, but shit something would have leaked.

    Brock does have a boxing trainer

    A lot of people dont take into consideration how far he is behind some of these guys.

    Yeah, I think Brock has been using Aokis boxing trainer.

    No and that's kind of my point. Brock has likely been relaxing and hunting. He will probably get back into training now that a fight is scheduled for June.

    The bottom line is that his stand up will not have improved much from the first Velasquez fight, so why would anyone want to see a rematch? He got steamrolled in the first fight.

    If I'm Lesnar I don't want either of the top 2 guys in the division until my boxing has improved considerably.

    I'm also not crazy about JDS and Brock as coaches on TUF. Has either guy really been in MMA long enough to coach anyone? I was really looking forward to Faber and Cruz being coaches.

    And now we now we won't see any of the top 3 UFC HW's fight until at least June. That bites.

    I agree. Brock as a coach is kind of a joke.

    Why? Wrestling is a huge part of MMA. I guarantee you plenty of guys coming up would love to learn from Brock. Sure he's not a very well rounded MMA fighter, but the one thing he does he is very good at.

    The real reason is with Lesnar as a coach it will most likely kill every other season's rating though.

    No doubt. Although I can't remember, does JDS speak any english? It would suck if he doesn't. Even Nog with his limited english made the show difficult at times.
