Yes, Brock Lesnar was an anomaly, seemingly born from rare yet concurrent shadows of potential and terror. Athletic gifts, scientific wrestling – so few attributes, yet built of crude prominence, enough to dazzle the unsuspecting and engulf the unfortunate. Lesnar’s career sloughed away in painful moments of overwhelming losses, starting with his doomed struggle against the superior Cain. However, his fate had not been enough to taint his legacy, for he has proven himself among the greats – with an atypical lack of experience – and left his mark much like a twister does after an intense few minutes of absolute destruction.
Lesnar – MMA’s tersest phenomenon.
