I think it would be too much to say the UFC's current success is 100% Lesnar. Still, he was a huge draw and his success drew a significant amount of people. I would say he sped the process up considerably.

He probably thinks he played a big role in the NFL's success too

i don't see what the big deal is. i think he helped the ufc and drew in a lot of people. even this site grew by mounds when lesnar started fighting. i've been watching the ufc since the nineties and they grown more in the last 5 years then they ever have before. so lesnar is a pro wrestler. who cares. why is everyone getting their panties in a bunch. it's not like you guys did anything to help the sport grow.

that's in a different context than what i was saying. brock actually fought and brought fans to the sport. the sport has grown because of what he did and who he is. i haven't helped the sport grow because of my contribution.

I think he exceeded everyone's expectations. You've got to give it to him, he did beat the odds and he sold the UFC more then any fighter has. 3 of his fights exceeded 1M PPV's out of only 7 which have passed the 1M mark

what he said was correct, at least what was quoted in the article is right. The ufc did make money off his blood, sweat and tears. You cannot say otherwise.

I agree with the above statement
I drank milk because it was supposed to make me stronger, but I pushed on the wall and could not move it. Then I drank a bottle of vodka. Now the wall moves and I didn't have to touch it!
