Couture May Have To Settle for Lesnar and Not Fedor
Posted in
Unspecified
According to Michael Rome of the BloodyElbow.com Randy Couture is in negotiations with the UFC. His first fight back with the company could take place at UFC 91 on November 15th in Portland, Oregon. Nothing has been set in stone but this would be one of the most anticipated fights in MMA history. With Brock Lesnar being such a huge name and Randy being considered a living legend, ratings could go through the roof.

Brock Lesnar

If this is true, Elite XC could be facing a real test. Kimbo Slice, who was once the company´s premier fighter, could be a thing of the past. Brock Lesnar who is just as marketable as Kimbo could take the MMA world buy storm if he gets this fight. I personally believe that Brock will win this fight. As a result his stock should soar, while destroying the appeal of Kimbo as a legitimate championship fighter.
I have a lot of respect for Kimbo or anyone else with the balls to step into the ring or cage; however his performance against James Thomson exposed him as a fighter who needs a lot of improvement. Let´s see if he can improve and improve fast, because his next appearance on CBS will require that the show be carried on his broad shoulders. He needs to carry the show better than Brock does for the UFC or it may be the end of Elite XC.
