This season of "The Ultimate Fighter" is going to be all about coaching the prospects, right? Those were the words of Brock Lesnar on Tuesday in Las Vegas. You get the feeling once the cameras are rolling and Lesnar is fed a few lines from Camp dos Santos, his singular focus may change.
Lesnar hasn't had to publicly answer many questions about his loss against Cain Velasquez. It was clear that night that the big guy doesn't like getting hit. Once Velasquez landed a few good punches, Lesnar was on his horse, nearly sprinting from a striking battle.
Dos Santos told the media during the Season 13 media day that Lesnar can't take a punch. From the Las Vegas Review-Journal:
"He doesn't accept punches well. I am from boxing, so I have no problem with punches. Guys can punch me and I feel nothing, just keep going. That doesn't happen with him," dos Santos said with a characteristic smile. "I don't know why, I guess he's got a weak chin."
It was surprising for the normally reserved dos Santos to state it so bluntly. He also believes Lesnar is going down again.
"I believe I can knock him out."
Dos Santos is 12-1, including 6-0 with the UFC. He's one of the better strikers in the heavyweight division with five of those UFC victories coming by TKO or KO. Lesnar (5-2 with UFC) has his work cut out for him and should get plenty of motivation if JDS continues to speak his mind.
