Rumble with the Big Boys
Oh my!
According to an article on MMA Fanhouse yesterday, the massive and exciting fighter Bob Sapp (6’5″ 375lbs.) will be facing off against Bob Lashley from WWE.
Bob Sapp is a massive brute of a fighter that was extremely entertaining to watch in in Pride and K-1, but who has been a bit out of the spotlight for a while due to disagreements with K-1. Although he has been in a few promotion since then (Cage Rage, Strike Force), his visibility here in the states has definitely been on the low-down compared to several years ago (although he’s still practically a super-hero in Japan.)
Lashley is trying to follow in the footsteps of the now immensely visible, and well, immensely immense, Brock Lesnar (6’3″ 273lbs. of all muscle.) Lashley comes from a strong wrestling background, having wrestled in College, and in the Army. This will be only his third MMA fight.
I haven’t seen what kind of condition Bob Sapp is in for quite a while, but if it’s good, then I think Lashley will really have his hands full here…. perhaps too much to handle. Although, anyone can get knocked for a loop.
Wanna see what a concussion looks like? Wanna see what I think this fight will look like? Bob, can you show us your fight with Kimo to end this discussion for now?
