There are only a few guys like that now, but it is growing with all the wrestlers. A lot of them grew up with rough backgrounds and fighting was a way of life, then someone started paying them to do it. Liddell grew up as an enforcer when he was like 15.

Besides, no matter how good you are you are going to get hit in the face and if you can't take a punch in the face you are in the wrong sport. Most guys probably don't like it and some guys do (Leben & Miller come to mind) but all of them seem to accept it and can deal with it, not Brock.

All Im saying is look at some out the guys at the top of there games right now and none of them are the back room brawlers. Silva, GSP, Velasquez, Rua,Machida, and Edgar all dont just sit back a take a punch. These guys exploit your weakness and use it ageist you.

Brock never got the fact that you have to use strategy ageist your opponent. He rushes you, punches you, and puts you on the mat. The dude is a wrestler for sure. The reason why Cain won was the fact that he stopped Brock on the ground and forced him to stand up. Everyone including Lesnar knows he is not a great striker. I was just surprised at how well Cain managed such a large man from his back side. Now that's technique.

That fact is not that the man cant take a punch. If anything Brock has taken more punches then most. The fact is he is very poor at boxing and Cain is as complete as it gets in the Heavyweights. The uppercut he gave Lesnar was sick. I mean right on the jaw and then he just picked him apart on the ground. Dude can do everything. He is GSP at 240.

Aleksander Emelianenko has some crazy good hands. I havent heard anything about him in a good while. I think he may have a form of hepatitis that prevents him from getting medical clearance.

He was apart of the Russian mob right? He goes back to the days of Pride if I remember.

I think Machida is another guy that can't handle getting punched in the face but we'll see after he fights Rampage. Show me one other fighter that literally turns and runs away when they get hit.

Silva will stand and bang with you because he's the superior striker but lately he enjoys embarrassing opponents instead of beating them down.

Cain stood and threw in a flurry with Brock, he wasn't scared to get hit and he got tagged with a knee and didn't turn and run.

Obviously guys don't want to get their face smashed but sometimes they know they have to get hit in the face to land something of their own and they do. None of those guys would be champions if they got hit in the face and ran away. That's all I'm saying.

      PFF names Panthers QB Bryce Young the best deep passer

      By trucpfan · Posted

      Arm is weak? Another useless complaint who gives a flying f… if he makes all the throws accurately idgaf about arm strength. Let’s dive deeper into your complaint no zip on the ball show me a play where his lack of zip cost us anything. Show me a play where his weak arm cost us a completion or because he doesn’t have a Josh Allen cannon he didn’t make the play he needed to make. His 40 yarder down the field to XL two weeks ago was a got d…. dime his throw to AT in the end zone was a dime, his throw to XL 3 weeks ago that the man pulled out his hand was a dime about 30+ yards. What about the one handed grab to AT was a rocket arm needed? You’re logic is so self absorbed your judging the man off what you want him to have and that’s just outright goofy, not judging him off performance not off the talent he’s going against not even the situation he’s facing ex..(4th quarter down by 4 needed a TD) in which he’s outperformed all expectations vs KC vs Giants vs Tampa nobody Gives a f…. about him not having a rocket he’s noodle arm in the last 4-5 weeks has him rated as top 3 QB I think that’s way more Important then satisfying fans need for our QB to possess a cannon these complaints are getting too notch outlandish and quite embarrassing go be a dam Bills fan so your QB can have the strongest arm in the league yet he’s won nothing significant since he’s been in the dam league besides your heart he’s won your heart by having a rocket arm we gotta see what’s his consolation prize for winning arm of the year award. This is just dumb they benched him to help him because he has all the tools but wasn’t playing up to par benched him he  focused on his technique and came back and started doing what was expected what crow would they even be eating this is ignorant.

      Cleaning up Fitterer's Mess

      By Seltzer · Posted

      https://x.com/avl_mike/status/1863950938467189041 Incredible job by Brandt Tilis. Maybe Tepper has finally hired the right group and will stay out of the way. For reference, Dead Money for the past few seasons: 2021: $53.9M 2022: $52.4M 2023: $62.1M 2024: $69.3M 2025: $1.9M All that waste and ineptitude for 17 wins over the past 63 games... Fitterer deserves to be extradited back to CLT to stand trial for war crimes against this franchise. The one caveat is we'll never know how much meddling Tepper actually did, but the results speak for themselves... one of the worst GM tenures in NFL history. Look at this nonsense from this season alone in dead money: Von Bell: $9.9M Hayden Hurst: $9.8M Donte Jackson: $9.7M Diontae Johnson: $9.4M Bradley Bozeman: $7.2M Justin Houston: $3.8M DJ Chark: $3.1M Just such organizational dysfunction, from top to bottom. These weren't even good players. That 2025 dead money number will go up some with the probable release of Miles Sanders, Ian Thomas, etc., but nothing even remotely close to the sheer recklessness and stupidity of the Fitterer Era. Hopefully, we will look back in a few years and see this as the moment where we started to reemerge from the abyss... One can hope... Keep Pounding!!

      Not much. Most are still in denial.
