Never heard of him....Brock was a title holder and beat big names. Kimbo has nowhere near the resume that Brock does, so gtfo with that analogy. I'm just sayin. His biggest claim to fame is his popularity. Not claiming the belt at the HWs weakest moment. No one in their right mind would claim Brock is HOF worthy based on skill alone. | |

| Brock was champ when the HW division was the best. You take the top 5 when he was champ and you can't say it was ever tougher. | |

| But like I said you can't honestly say based on skill alone Brock is even in HOF consideration. | |

| We talking UFC HOF. In that case, I say he belongs. Had Brock started fighting when he was 20, I think he would've had a better career in the UFC. Fact is....he beat some top guys and losses to top guys after surgery and after his prime. He was. Arguably the biggest draw ever in the UFC also. I say yes still. | |

Again, we are basing it off of his drawing power, not his actual in the ring skill set. Because like I said, an argument can't be made based on skill alone. This man was outclassed badly in his last two fights. 4-3 in the UFC and was ooohh so close to being 3-4. He looked like he didn't even belong in the cage with Reem and Cain. | |

| He had skills. One if the best wrestlers ever in the UFC who fought over 10 years past his prime. Not to mention the surgery he dealt with. That didn't help his UFC career. No fighter has ever been on the ground with Mir and clowned him like that. | |

| If Chris Mullin can make the NBA HOF then Brock deserves to be in the UFC 1. |

You cant use records as the final judgement on who gets into the HOF. Randys record was riddled with losses, and he is still one of the best/most loved fighters ever. I think Brock should get in based on 1. He was not a horrible fighter contrary to what most believe. and 2. He was the biggest PPV draw and most hated fighter in UFC history. Hell Brock beat the dog shit out of Randy. It wasnt until his tummy got the bubble guts that he started stinking the place up. No pun intended. So you cant say he was no good. | |

He was only 1st team all NBA once. He was a 5 time all-star. |

| Of course he belongs in. This is the hall of FAME right? Who is more famous than Lesnar? Skill arguments are not valid. Frank isn't in, so. | |

| MMA hall of famer? no
UFC hall of famer? probably
he's made a lot of money for the UFC, if 'services to the UFC' is a criteria for the UFC hall of fame he's a lock. | |
