Are Former Pro Wrestlers Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley taking over UFC and MMA ?
Several years ago if you told me that a couple former pro wrestlers would be in mma and more specifically the UFC then I likely would've laughed at the thought. Well here we are today with former pro wrestlers in Brock Lesnar and Bobbly Lashley drawing big numbers and holding their own in the cage as well. Is this the next wave or the future of mixed martial arts?
In just four fights Brock Lesnar has put himself on the map and earned the respect of mma and UFC fans around the world. Even though he is just 3-1 many people forget that he is actually the current UFC Heavyweight Champion. He earned that belt after beating experienced veterans Heath Herring and Randy Couture.
Bobby Lashley has yet to make that kind of splash but his ability is interesting all the same. Although he is not quite as large as Brock Lesnar he definately has power that most men will find extremely hard to match in the UFC or mma. In his last fight he completely dominated the much more experienced Jason Guida.
When Brock Lesnar steps in the cage to defend his UFC championship against Frank Mir at UFC 98 then we will find out just how far he has come as a fighter. If he can avenge his only loss against a very tough opponent in Frank Mir then people will have to recognize that he is perhaps the next big thing. The future is unclear for Bobby Lashley as he seems to still have some interest in pro wrestling but regardless expect that man to make an impact as well.
