- In 2004 Brock Lesnar departed WWE in hopes of making the NFL. When that didn't happen he went to New Japan for a short time before making the move to the MMA world. It was his time in the MMA world that proved just how much of a freak athlete Brock was and just what he could do with limited experience, the beast incarnate dominated the sport in a short amount of time and proved the doubters wrong. In this short documentary, we take a look back at how a "fake fighter" went on to become a legitimate badass.

Brock Lesnar might be one of the few dudes who will be a hall of famer two sports

ok

istg idk fr fr
ken shamrock too!
He was champion, defended the title which most in the division at the time didn't so yes. On top of the fact that he had no MMA experience makes it more impressive
You're not wrong but people forget he does have that NCAA Wrestling background.
@@thecharmcityplayerbrandona8827 I think it’s the fact that he only had one MMA bout prior to joining the UFC. He didn’t get any true fight experience that combined striking and grappling.
110% facts 🔥🔥🔥
Might be the fact he did it pre USAD.
Fighting clean guys like Couture and Mir while having the T levels of a silverback.
Talents ruined by PED use I think.
@@gregmegan4699mir litterally got caught using steroids multiple times and couture had to be on steroids considering he was in his mid 40s and still looked just as good physically lol. the ufc at that time was basically open season for steroid use and other than maybe cain its hard for me to believe any of that eras top heavyweights weren't using steroids.
There is only one Brock Lesnar. This guy has the physique of a real monster, he is very outstanding in the ring, his mic skills are very entertaining and has huge accomplishments even in his debuts. Brock Lesnar is a legend in both WWE and UFC. 🔥🔥🔥
Brock Lesnar is a strong, athletically gifted genetic freak who truly embodies the qualities of a once in a lifetime generational talent.
Brock’s health failed him. He’s one of the better heavyweights in the history of the UFC. He was a mega star before Ronda and Connor. He also beat a couple of legends. And Shane Carwin was a killer when Brock ran into him. Cain is arguably the greatest heavyweight of all time ( at least somewhere in the top 3 or 4) and Brock was a shell of himself especially with the guy issues.
Stipe overshadows Cain IMO.
You Obviously don't watch a lot of MMA, he did well for his short career but would not last with today's Heavyweights.
@@GhengisGoon look at Derrick Lewis. Or Tai. Brock is more talented then any of them. Outside of stipe, none of the top heavyweights are wrestlers. If Brock could get them on the ground it’s over for them. In his prime, he would still be elite today
@E. T he could be around the top ten. But would get smoked by guys like Jones, Gane and Ngannou. Even without the health problems, I still see Cain and Oveream beating him. His striking wasn't that good.
@@GhengisGoon lesnar would definitely beat gane.
Brock Lesnar will forever be one hell of a beast in the world of sports. There truly is no one else like him. He makes everything shown incredibly interesting and real simply by presence alone and always whooped ass whether he won or lost. His UFC run definitely helped him out big time and while it’s not perfect, it was amazing for building him up as the biggest badass ever. Truly a GOAT for sports.✊
I always think what if a 23 year old Lesnar was trying UFC after winning his NCAA championship. I mean when you closely look, Lesnar in his mid 20's weighing 290-295lbs was even faster than the 265lbs lesnar in UFC. Lesnar was 275lbs when he won the NCAA in 2000 and was crazy fast and strong. Lesnar at 31, mentioned before his 3rd UFC fight that he was much stronger 10 years back! ...265lbs 23 year old young lesnar fighting in UFC would have been something extremely crazy!!
This "Brock" is the best version of all time.
Brock just a legend in general
If Brock wasn’t sick and trained at a better gym he would probably be the heavyweight goat. His physique and athleticism was so overwhelming but his skill was lacking. He was also scared of sparring so he didn’t develop his striking to be as great as it could’ve been. Still a great career for what it was but it could’ve been sooo much better.
exactly, the sparring issue was a big downside to his game
@@SuperkickStudios How good would it be if Mma started his career after college wrestling and worked under elite coaches and camps (top 5 heavyweight or goat material) What do you think?
"Brock Lesnar is the strongest man I've ever had to encounter in the ring. I don't think anybody comes close."
- John Cena.
No mark henry is a stronger than cena
@It's me Atharva in real life big show can defeat cena
Henry is stronger
But Brock lesnar once said that Kane is the strongest.🤷♂️
@@lloydmontgamarygarmaddon4308 no we are talk about real life fight
In terms of brute strength henry cena and kane are strongest but in terms of speed dominance brock is on a different level.
“No bread, no water, just MEAT!” - 5 time WCW Champion, 2 time WWE HoF inductee Booker T.
I feel after his MMA run, he became a much more feared man in the business.
Hats off to Brock Lesnar for shutting all his hater's mouth and proving himself as THE BEAST INCARNATE 👹🔥
Brock is a beast
Brock is the biggest name in today era
10x wwe champion
Main event wrestlemania
End taker streak
Just a legend
10x wwe champion? I don't remember he won the title that much 🤔
@@grandcanyon-fu9zt I mean 9x
@@grandcanyon-fu9zt
2 Time WWE Undisputed Champion
1time two belt WWE Champion
3 time Universal Champion
Then, he won the WWE Championship again by defeating Kingston.
After he returned, he won the wwe championship again in a fatal 4 way match on New Year PPV Day 1. That counts as 4 time WWE Champion.
Then, he again won the WWE championship at Saudia Arabia. That counts as 5 time WWE Champion
So 5+4-9.

@@grandcanyon-fu9zt It's his overall achievements.....but okay.
2002 - 2004 brock Lesnar had the perfect name of the next big thing and the beast
You are absolutely right when you say Brock was not a great fighter when it comes to technique. He didn’t want to get hit in the face whatsoever, but he was still a freak.
He was a straight line attacker when he fought, and he didn’t have a strong striking game that was a bang on point
Joe Rogan proved your point in the clip
He's the reason why now I have an alternative to wrestling, that being the UFC...
Same here
If Brock Lesnar had gone into MMA right out of college and really learned how to strike, he would've been the greatest UFC heavyweight of all time. The fact that he had a pretty successful career in the UFC with minimal MMA experience is extremely impressive
Leaving WWE and eventually landing with UFC was the best move he ever made to solidify his name as a true badass. Most professional wrestling fans know this sport has scripted results, but it's still entertaining to watch and talk about as if it's a legitimate physical contact sport. Also, just heading to the UFC wouldn't be enough for Brock if he didn't do well, and he did very well.
Great great video man 🔥🔥
Well waiting for booked ep4 🙂
Bro, you deserve more than 11k views, this was a great edited video
If Brock started MMA at a young age, he would've absolutely been one of the greatest heavyweights of all time.
Same thing could of been said for Kurt Angle
@@StJohnSB indeed, that would actually be kinda sick 😆
I. Think Brock is truly league of all times
yessuh he did. bruh got his money up and was a legit fighter. He def got hype from going back
I wish Brock Lesnar stay in wwe back in 2004.
Your videos seriously never disappoint 🙌🏻
appreciate that💪🏼
@@SuperkickStudios dope videos but can u make a video about rey bastia or jbl they seriously need more respect on they name
Brock is such a beast
Wow mate I enjoy your work can you please do this videos every week pleases
Became world champion in his first 4 fights... yea id say so.
Lesnar is a helluva fucking boss, bruh. holy shit.
I love Paul’s talk 11:24 ❤
I can't stand when people in the mma community come for Brock. he had one of the most impressive careers in the sport and did it in a very short time. This ain't no CM Punk shit, he was one of the baddest dudes on the planet and he showed it.
he is my idle if he didn't left wwe there was no John Cena no randy Orton no batista no one can't handle his achievement in million years that's why sable die for him
Sable's alive bud👽.
i mean sable love him
Holy fuck Brock is legit awesome love that he admitted drugs were his closest friend and enemy that shit hit deep especially when you see where he is now after coming back from a stomach disease that almost killed him
I gotta agree that Brock Lesnar is the biggest what if. Like what if he started mma early instead of pro wrestling especially since he won NCAA national wrestling championship where a lot of wrestlers actually transition to mma like Randy Couture, Daniel Cormier, Cain Velasquez, etc. And he had 2 potential fights that never materialize like Brock vs Fedor and Brock vs DC.
Broo....
Booked series next episode .....
No doubt a future hall of famer in WWE & UFC 💪💯
Dude the start was funny
Brock vs taker hiac 2002
Brock vs rock summerslam
Brock vs byran svr 2018
Brock vs kurt Manis 19 are some of my favorites
Loved watching this video about what a true generic freak Brock Lesnar truely is.I will always have respect for him as a athlete.He is always a top 10 wrestler/mma fighter in my eyes.
Brock Lesnar was a beast in the UFC! Really enjoyed his run and he helped the UFC grow, a true mega star 🙌👏🎉
Brock is the closest to a real life super soldier
man is a tank
It's just Brock Lesnar being Brock Lesnar doing some regular Brock Lesnar stuffs
Please do a WWE in 2017 year review it was a really underrated year on NXT and the Main Roster
His early run in WWE holy shit man the display of his speed and strength was alien business
Imagine the OVW 4 class in the attitude era the world wouldn't have survived when all these guys would have competed against Austin Rock Taker HHH etc.
that would’ve been nuts
@@SuperkickStudios haa bhai
Brock is a once in a life time athlete
without a doubt
Once in a generation athlete🔥🔥
I grabbed ufc 2010 psp just cuz he was in the cover
Nice
Now you gotta make a video about his Ultimate farming carreer
😂😂😂
And also him being a butcher 😹
Brock lesnar is a guy who dominated wwe and then went to UFC became champion by conquering legends returned to wwe defeated Undertaker at Mania squashed John cena and defeated roman at WrestleMania he is absolutely a freaking beast.
It's sad we never got to see him fight Fedor.
saying a NCAA national champion wrestler barely had experience is outrageously inaccurate
Striking experience is most import in mma, which brock lacked.
The Beast Incarnate🔥🔥🔥
That's why he is in the top
Is it me or is beared brock the best brock ? Or is it really just me
Brock Lesnar is one of the GOATs in pro wrestling
Dammmm brock got hit by a minivan?? Hopefully somebody checked on the minivan…
hahaha
Lol.
3:25 one of the things that held him back was that he supposedly hated taking punches and barely sparred as a result. Another point in his favor was the failure of Greg Hardy. Hardy was a similar elite level pro athlete who had been an all-pro in the NFL. To be fair to Hardy, though, the technique of heavyweights was significantly better in his era so he had a lot more of a skill gap to make up than Brock did. In Brock's era heavyweights were fairly basic skill wise.
12:41 you’ve clearly never heard of Chuck Liddell
Also when lesnar beat carwin he won with a arm triangle choke not a triangle choke
I thing you should do mma video more
Zach Gowen is still alive by the way
Brock Lesnar actually left for the NFL and only deviated to the UFC after he was cut from the League Developmental …
Not a very sexy title to write that, you know what I meant tho....
I think Superkick Studios watches MMA
When my gull bladder burst I throw up for days till I was bleeding xc. So ik how that would feel.
He's no doubt 🐐 GOAT ♑
easily
Da Goat❤🔥.
What a surprise “free health care” almost killed a guy
Weird 50 cent name drop in there
Glad Cain V beat him!! Humble him some. And there's always someone bigger and better! "There's always a bigger fish"
brock lesnar is Caustic with movement ...scary as fuck to see something that big coming at you in full momentum
I'm just going to say this if it wasn't for Lesnar UFC wouldn't exist wwe could have actually bought UFC back in 2008 hell Shane o Mac even pitched the idea to Vince just for Vince to say no to him as Vince didn't think UFC was going to be as big as it became
Everybody forgot about shamrock and Dan Severn huh
The man got wins and a championship at one point. He might of finished 5-3, but compare him to the poser CM Punk, and he was light years ahead.
He is truly the alpha male of our species
Remember, they don’t call him “The Beast Incarnate” for nothing
8:28 he did what?
Even without diverticulitis, there was no way Brock would've withstood getting body kicked by a gassed up Ubereem, because Alistair's PED regimen made his look tame by comparison, and he was a K-1 Grand Prix champion to boot.
The story behind (what if ) he was backstage and he ask taker and he told him you don’t want to ask yourself when you be 40 y what if I did that and i didn’t do that
He'd get rolled in the heavyweight division now
He did something that even Johnny sins can’t do . My favourite wrestler is off the charts
Bro imagine knowing a guy just had a severe surgery and intentionally kicking him right tf where he got it, seeing him halt all functionality and fucking wailing on him whoever tf that was is going to hell for sure
Brock is the man
Hold tf up Brock lesnar went to Bismarck? Hell yea
Always brock lesnar fan
he had wrestling expierence, I wouldn't say he was a complete noob, he's also a legit athlete
Dude dominated UFC rings and WWE rings like nothing
Will he return to ufc ?
most likely not no, highly doubt we’ll see him back
@@SuperkickStudios why is that?
@@hashendrahulangamuwa6433 he is almost 45... He will be killed if he goes back.
@@hashendrahulangamuwa6433 he's 45
Brock Lesnar conquered all sports from wrestling, football, MMA, movies sideline .....
Lesnar is goat
If there's quote, "Jesus Christ, it's Jason Bourne"
Then I got one better, "HOLY SHIT, IT'S COWBOY BROCK FUCKING LESNAR." you say that out of both respect as an attendant and fear of what he'll do if he's hunting for you.
If he wouldn't had diverticulitis he would have kept the ufc belt I believe for alot more times
I like how... Eddie Guerrero, Kurt Angle, Rey Mysterio, Shawn Michaels, are the few wrestlers who knew how to do the Reserves F5 on Brock Lesnar. 💪🏽
Joe Rogan & Dana White, had a Hard on for Brock Lesnar in the UFC.
I wouldn't want to face Brock Lesnar
man can kill anyone he wants
So I'm both an mma and pro wrestling fan. I simply think Brock was pretty overrated.
As soon as he faught the new generation of heavyweights he got figured out and his weaknesses were too much to overcome and he knew it.
Brock for sure is the best pro wrestler coming to mma, he was a big draw and catapulted his own career with this move.
But I think a lot of pro wrestling circles talk about Lesnar like he was an amazing fighter, both skill and athletics.
Honestly he lost unfairly to Alister
Hreat video but i think you are underplaying Lesnars technique here. Sure his striking was mediocre at best but his wrestling was top notch. You dont become ncaa champ just with size.
Very silly question.
Lesnar 69 nice
