After a great year of fights, 2011 will end with one of the most anticipated matchups of the year, Brock Lesnar-Alistair Overeem. Questions surround the bout and the fight should really show if either of these guys can truly contend in the heavyweight division.
With Lesnar’s health concerns and questionable chin and Overeem’s organizational debut, each of these guys certainly come into the fight with many questions to answer.
While it is hard to tell what will happen in this fight it is very clear who the UFC should be rooting for: Brock Lesnar.
As 2012 begins, the UFC is in a better position than ever to break into the mainstream.
With the new partnership between FOX and the UFC the organization will have more exposure than ever before. Along with that exposure is the need for marketable stars who can become household names.
For many reasons Brock Lesnar is the perfect candidate to be the UFC’s poster boy.
