In this MMA Rated interview with Heath Herring, he makes it plain that he is not expecting a new and improved Brock Lesnar at UFC 87 this Saturday night. He also seems to think it’s funny that Frank Mir will fight for the heavyweight title next after beating Lesnar, while he beat Cheick Kongo and somehow ends up taking a step back. Maybe the fact that he’s already been beaten three times by the reigning champ played a part in that decision.
Never one to miss a chance at a light-hearted ending (see also: How’s taste my pee-pee-pee and How’s taste my big pee-pee), Ariel Helwani just has to revisit Herring’s infamous staredown knockout of Yoshihiro Nakao at the end of this interview. Herring laughs it off, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t serious about not wanting to be kissed. Just ask Nakao.


Do you guys see that Brock Lesnar hits harder than ANY heavyweight in the UFC… toe to toe, no one will want to trade with him in the future, but when it goes to the ground he drops the bombs and it gets worse. Lesnar is a legitimate fighter and it sounds like everyone here has written off his wrestling skills… four time all Americans and multiple ncaa championships do not come along every day.
