UFC 141's Brock Lesnar on Overeem's Skills, Farming + 12 Inches of Missing Colon
MMA H.E.A.T.'s Karyn Bryant catches up with former UFC heavyweight champ Brock Lesnar and hears what he has to say about his upcoming UFC 141 fight with Alistair Overeem. Brock lets us know what he thinks of the former Strikeforce champ as an opponent, how he feels when people question his own dedication to MMA and how he approaches each of his fights. Brock also talks about his recovery from diverticulitis, his training with fellow UFC heavyweight Pat Barry and his love of farming as a way to clear his head.

Brock Lesnar has really grown on me, my kind of human being, straight forward and honest
Brock is such a role model.

A Goddamn Role Model
When he said he was gonna do the best he can do to maybe win this fight. He knew he wasnt gonna win this fight. However, dont sell him short, dude kicked ass in a dangerous place. Its a testament to his skills toughness and heart he did as good as he did.
I like Brock Lesnar. He acheived a lot in this sport of MMA considering where he came from and how quickly he acheived it. A lot of people also don't realise that this guy had to fight top level guys in the sport whilst sometimes fighting off a serious disease. RESPECT!!!

Is that a bag thing? Should be every guy's credo 💯
So he's a wheat farmer. Gonna remember that next time I eat a wheat product.
Very humble guy, But he wasn't the same fighter after the diverticulitis which sucks. Either way Brock Lesnar was the UFC heavyweight champion and still holds the records, Overeem looked so promising after his Lesnar win, Shame he cheated using roids.. His career hasn't been that bright since.. But as Heyman said, Brock wasn't ready for the Overeem fight.

+Adders321 My father had diverticulitis. Had surgery almost two years ago for it. It is so debilitating. My dad worked in a paper mill and went from being a working man lifting heavy equipment one day to having to spend two months on light duty. The pain drops people. He compared the pain to someone taking a red hot knife right into your gun and twisting the fucking thing.

Adders321 you're right. nobody can ever take that away from him. he has nothing to be ashamed of. in the Heavyweight Division NOBODY IS CHAMPION FOR LONG.
At 5:15 you can say he was absolutely emotional about what happened with his health and how much toll he had to take on his body each and every day while fighting with that devastating life threating disease which will haunt him forever.. Mad respect for this guy!! The Greatest ever once in a lifetime athlete in whole sports entertainment and Combat sports!!
3:21 "we sold our weed"
Never seen this side of brock really wholesome
YO KAREN I'VE GOT TO SAY BIG RESPECT TO YOUR FOR GIVING US ACCESS TO THIS VIDEO BROCK LESNAR IS A ULTRA EPIC ATTRACTION. IT IS VERY APPRECIATED AND WE RESPECT YOUR WORK AND CONTIBUTIONS TO THE MMA BUISNESS AND FANS. THANK YOU KAREN
(1:21) how ironic...we got the beast being interviewed, all the while there is a poster of the original beast in the background 👀
Brock is my HERO!
Brock has changed so much since he started in the UFC to now. He's matured a lot. I have Overeem winning but if this goes longer then expect Brock will tire Reem out....
Basically he is a wrestler, when he was fighting fit and young, he spent time in wwe... after facing so many injuries in wwe , he went to UFC bcam UFC heavyweight champ then defended it too.. he has been ill but came back in action .. he got loin's heart.
The ultimate farmer is here Finally I love this lesnar
I wish he faired better in the UFC and kept winning. His disease and lack of experience held him back. The other top heavy weight contenders are boring as fuck and have no personality. Love him or hate him, his fights brought in a ton of exposure for the sport and were some of the most highest grossing to date.

+805edog other wrestlers talking shit about Brock dont have the balls or talent to do 1% of what he did during his career. Tough strong dude, the real thing.
He looks sooo Cute😍
He would have been cutting weight at the time of that interview, he walks around at 290 and had to cut to 265 the day before the fight. From what I have heard it's a living hell and a Brazilian fighter just died doing it, MMA fighters make tremendous sacrifices to entertain us.

He was not cutting from 290 to 265 the day before the fight. Impossible for the body to do that
despite anything you may have against brock, his number one concern is always his family into that anyone should beable to relate to him.
@muchohumpty To be fair, he suffered a broken hand and broken foot fighting Mirko which made it very hard for him to go for the kill when he had the chance. You could be right, though. Hopefully they give him more stylistically favorable match-ups so he can catch up in the ground game. He's charismatic and exciting. With time and development, he could make an excellent gatekeeper. Someone to put fans in the seats and keep putting on good fights.
Like him or not.. you gotta respect Brock for what he has done, and for what he has also overcome.
thanks karyn, always on top of things!
brock"s face and hair and the way he walk like a lion even his eyes
Great video,and listen wether Brock wins or loses there will always be those anti Brock fans or haters it's the way it is but thats what we have as fans cheer for who we want and boo who we want btw I didn't even know who Miguel Torres was until like a day ago but I'll still by the ppvs
I wish Brock well -- overcoming that kind of disease is something that few can really appreciate. Takes some major introspection and inner character to get back in there.
Man, looking at this i can't really understand why everyone hates this guy. This interview really shows he's more humble than ever so seriously the fuck? Hating him for his time in the WWE is like hating an actor himself for being a different character in a movie.
he seems like just a nice down to earth bloke
Brock Lesnar is my hero he is a true man he loves his family and appreciates life, he lives off the land and would be fine if the world ended tomorrow with all his money he makes sure his family is safe secure and would be ok if he wasnt there and still keeps it real
"for fuck sakes what do I gotta do to prove I wanna be here" I hope Brock wins. This dude has been through hell the last couple years with his illness and fighting all the Heavy weight monsters the UFC can throw at him. Brock deserves to be champ again.
Karyn b great comedic timing at the end there with ''Do more interview'' I tell you, your personality is just great
There needs to be a second way of measuring history (AD/BC) being the first and AL/BL. The later based on Brock Lesnar.
i dont think im ever gonna be his biggest fan, but he seems like a decent guy
He seems very relaxed and confident, i think he is gonna win Friday night
@himsheha How does he look scared?
well said. i have been saying the same thing on my channel for quite some time.
I'd love to have Him come out to our farm to check it out.

@lamaquina570 Yeah I get your point, I guess we as fans tend to go based on accomplishments and Overeem has clearly been more successful. But I totally agree about Pats head movement and footwork, although he's a smaller (shorter) guy so he had to be strong in those areas to compete, Look at any big guy, most dont have great footwork because they've rarely been forced to use it. I met Pat Berry earlier this year, as nice as advertised.
man he is nice i used 2 hate him cuase i thought everyone would think ufc was just like wwe when he came but i liked him after he took a beating in the carwin fight and still won even tho i was rooting 4 carwin
Yes my opinion is that Brock is a great champion. I would pay to train with him at his Farm. The level of wrestling he has is amazing and after all the bad experiences he had to live he has become more humble and respectful. Brock with a little more jujitsu and stand up would be more dangerous.
It's cool how hes so rich but still lives the quiet simple life
Anything yet? Any Yaki Yak running around you like lightning or "valaca rapter"? Just curious. :)
He is actually a humble guy in reality ,except in WWE That he show up .
Yeah, I read more of his comments and it's SO chopped up it was giving me a headache trying to decifer what he was saying. I mean even typing like that on purpouse is hard. Ha ha ha ha, "legendary powers".........I kind of feel like Don in Napoleon Dynamite.
Brock is such a good guy..
Karyn. You. Are. Awesome. Thanks. Seriously. :D
@dieselcoc There are lots of differences, height included. Their styles of striking are very different. It'd be like having Quinton Jackson as your primary sparring partner in preparation for Jon Jones.
we differ in opinion, but if you look at it realisticly, brock without a doubt needs atleat 3 years of hardcore mma training and of course not getting serioulsy injured during this time to really be the best or one of the best. Alistair has been all over the place he has so much more experience. Now when brock came into mma he was expected to just be teh best flat out without any real hardcore mma experience, give him some time and without a doubt he can be the best.
@JustForMN people just want him to be scared because they want him too lose, personally i don't think lesnar has looked this calm and confident since ufc 100, this is a dangerous brock lesnar in my opinion.
2:48
@lamaquina570 Well, maybe some get caught up with Overeems look but Ive been watching this guy for 10 years, he won the K1 tourney, that says alot. Hey Im not saying Berry isnt good or thier skill isnt somewhat close but Overeem has proven over the years how good his stand up is.
Brock vs Soandso would be awesome!
does anyone think Tom Hardy used Brock as inspiration for his character in warrior? im just seeing this interview and some similarities are surprising.
@muchohumpty He's got great skills imo. I just think it was too soon for him to enter into mma without more wrestling/grappling experience. He's so worried about it, it gets in the way of his striking.
@SadisticNerd Physicly fight random guys, or what do you mean?
i love brock . his a legend. but i think hes in for a good fight wid overeem ;) lookin forward to it
He's not nervous, he's trying to keep eye contact with all the interviewers.
Dude, Brock said he was done fighting, he wanted to go back to being a farmer or something. Dana White talked about it, it's on KZread somewhere. I think a similar thing happened to him as with Fedor; they get past their prime, start losing a lot and want to stop fighting, settle down. Brock was awesome, but certainly not the best. Valesquez and Overeem tore through him with little trouble. Why are you so stuck on Brock? I say let the man retire, he's had a great run.

What a pity that Lesnar got sick and have surgey...i really liked him, all determination!
He broke down alastairs technique he says hmmm well didn't learn much alastairs when from orthodox at the very second he changed to south paw he walked in the trick was actually slowly walked in its highly clever technique then straight in with a knee if he had if dine stance switch and came fast it's defensable easy but look at the fight its just a switch in stance slow walking and knee all in one doing it so chilled out is what throws opponents brain
Dude you can see the scar that Cain velasquez left on Brock lower left eye lol.
I have no idea why any "fight fan" would think Brock is afraid based on this video. Lol! Listen, in the fight game, a fighter who is afraid to fight another fighter will simply fake an injury and pull out of the event. I think if Brock was afraid, he wouldn't be in the UFC. There is much more money for him in the world of pro wrestling where the fights are choreographed. Afraid? No. Respect for his very dangerous opponent? Heck yeah! But hey, Brock is dangerous in that octagon also. Can't wait!
A legitimate champion to me is one who has attained a belt fairly and who has won over credible opponents. Randy Couture, Frank Mir, Shane Carwin and Heath Herring constitute a list that I believe meet that criteria.
@yeahthrowingdownroc Hey, you've got a point there. Well, we will definitely see if he comes out like a bull Friday night or not. He'd better if he wants to keep Overeem at bay.
they call thos wrestling ears for he did not get it fix when the blood prop got in there. many wrestling pplz have thos
"Somebody ribbed me" hahaha
this is because he suffered injuries in a fight with cain, he was trying everything to avoid injury.
Brock lesnar is a fucking TANK
OH MY GOD HE DOES!!
@Schatje79 im sorry but i dont see Barry sticking around in the top MMA promotions much longer He got submitted by Crocop.....wtf. He had the fight in the bag but let it go He doesnt have what it takes imo
@xSTONEYx187x yes i know,i certainly heard weed at first , and then when he said currency i heard canabis.. hahahah
I wanna see a tag team match with Brock Landers and Chest Rockwell.
I like Brock and will be rooting for him, but I just don't think he can take the punch, and that is what Overeem does best. He should have never left WWE, in my opinion. That was his true calling, but he chose to abandon it. I am betting he will quit UFC as well if he loses this fight.
gooo brock!
@legend2kill It's because many of the mma hardcore fans are snobs and ignorant....they initially spreaded the hate for this guy. You can see the same anger they hold for anyone that rises quickly or beats a former pride fighter. That's partly why Jon Jones is hated on. Fortunately, Alistair represents pretty much the linear champion of Pride, Strikeforce and Dream. So I expect this fight to really piss off these guys or make them happy....
COME ON BROCK! SHOW THE WORLD YOU ARE THE BIG THING!
I don't like brock, but the guy did fight. I don't know many people who would go out there and fight Overeem like that. People are so hard on this guy. I was too, but he was able to become world champion, with only wrestling. Good luck Brock. I would welcome you to eat at my dinner table any day.
@SpiritMolecule1 indeed, someone seriously needs to watch ufc 22....
Jeezzz, brock seems like a tamed lion here
Pat Barry is very underrated hes a fuckin wicked striker
What did he say at the end? "where were you at the press conference? I talked about the same stuff"
And a former UFC Heavyweight Champion. :)
@cujo905 im not saying that he sucks, he is a really good fighter but i think that pat head movement and foot work is out standing like i cant compare him to Pat..the reason why i say this is because reem said that his skills are beyond Pat skills and i strongly disagree
This is why they brock back farmer lesnar its what he loves
thank you, i'll give him a treat in your favor.
wrestling man, WRESTLING!
you can tell in the overeem and lesnar fight brock was scared of overeem he underestimated cain velasquez

@Schatje79 5'9 Pat Barry mimmicking alistar is fucking weird. I was kinda surprised when he said that is his big thing for training for alistar. Pat Barry is subpar fighter that loses to everyone even in the standup. Who knows maybe Pat Barry hit him hard enough to help him take punches easer
That surgery destroyed brock! He was never the same fighter! Like he had a fear of taking a blow to the stomach!! I don't if him not taking the peds slowed him down or what but you can see a big difference in his speed and drive after his surgery
Brock brought in more ppv buys..first wrestler to win a major mma belt.. hall of famer in my book..both wwe and ufc
@Jerkwadd562 He does that, cause people started first to hate him.
Props to Brock. even with this guys disease. he still fought.
@billalphonso79 i thought the same, he looks in different directions when he is ask about overeem and his mimi speaks a bit for itself.
Good, down to earth guy.
