Brock Lesnar is detested for a couple of reasons, Zomboid.

#1a: He came in as a freak show so to speak. He's a mountain of a man who use to be a former pro wrestler for the WWE. A lot of people feel that he's more of a gimmick than anything else.

#1b: When he came in he was already a popular entity, so he had a couple fights and immediately got a title shot. Lots o' folks felt that he leap frogged a bunch of people to get a title shot instead of "paying his dues." Some guys in the UFC have had three times the number of fights he had at that time and still didn't get a shot. Title shots are generally based on what you've done to earn one and not how popular you are with the general public. Well, in theory at least.

#2: He routinely shows no class. When he does interviews he isn't afraid to show his ass to the general public. That's fine to be yourself, but a lot of people don't like that. Fighters generally show a great deal of respect towards each other and their fights, so when you have somebody who is such a "heel" all the time it's easier to dislike him. Sometimes I think he acts the way he does so he can sell more tickets.

#3: He's massive. He probably fights around 285ish+. His last opponent, Frank Mir, weighs in at about 240, so it's very hard to have competetive fights when one fighter out weighs the other by such a huge amount. This isn't Brock's fault, but rather the UFC needs a Super HW class. The problem with that is there is such a lack of talent already at the 220+ mark that a 245+ weight class would be a giant freak show.

#4: He has a giant d*ck tattoo on his chest. Seriously, it looks like a giant di*k.

Those are pretty much the main ones you'll hear.

I think he's extremely gifted genetically and athletically. The guy owned face in college wrestling, almost made it to the Vikings(motorcycle crash sidelined that dream), and gained a ton of noteriety through the WWE due to his physique. He's more human than human in some respects, he's a monster of a man for sure. I don't care for him that much personally because of his pompous attitude. I feel that Fedor or Overeem are the only fighters that can currently give him a run for his money. I can't stress enough how much his size plays into how well he does. I think his chin hasn't been tested(Shane Carwin will test it eventually I hope) and he has some more fights to have before I jump on the Brock Bandwagon.

And, anybody who wears Affliction or Tapout gear sits down when they pee. S*its gay.
