Looking at Brock Lesnar’s performance against Randy Couture on Saturday, it’s hard to believe many reporters called him the next Kimbo Slice.

With a record of 2-1 in professional mixed martial arts competition, some critics made the most of very little ammunition in Lesnar’s video library.

No matter how hard Dana White tried, he couldn’t shake the Slice comparisons.

“If I had hair, I’d pull it out,” the UFC president quipped.

But any parallels between the titanic champion and his backyard-bred counterpart were erased at UFC 91. Lesnar’s size and strength bridged the gap in experience between he and Couture, setting the stage for a unique changing of the guard in the UFC’s inconsistent heavyweight division. Lesnar is the greenest—and possibly the most promising—champion in its history.

In their eight minutes together, Couture felt every single pound of the forty-five between them. There was no room for him to be elusive.
