Coach of season 13 of The Ultimate Fighter, Brock Lesnar sits down with Mike Straka. The former UFC Heavyweight champion discusses his time on the hit reality TV show. Lesnar also talks about his transition from the world of professional wrestling into mixed martial arts.
“This is now my third opponent with heavy hands. Shane Carwin, Cain Velasquez, now Junior dos Santos. One of these times I got to get it right. So we’ll see what happens and we’ll see if I’m well prepared for Junior. But I think I am. I think I’ve got this figured out. I wasn’t able to get my 8 to 10 fights against guys much less caliber than myself. Shane Carwin fought not very tough guys; they weren’t the toughest guys on the block. Cain Velasquez worked his way up the ladder. My way of working up the ladder has been Frank Mir, Heath Herring, Randy Couture, Shane Carwin. So I’m working my way up the ladder against no guys to shrug you’re shoulders at.”
