I'm torn on who I think I will win but I'm going with Brock. He can just overpower Randy on the ground and standing.

I'm torn too. Honestly, if this match goes the distance, I think it's going to be Lesnar winning because he's just so destructive. But I also wouldn't be surprised to see Couture pull out a submission or a punchers chance knockout. In other words I think Lesnar will win on points but if Couture wins he's going to do something similar to what Mir did

Lesnar wins TKO! I can't believe he's the new champ! Now we need Mir to win against Horueiga so we can see Lesnar/Mir 2 for the title

Lesnar IS the champ, champ
LAS VEGAS – Brock Lesnar won the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s heavyweight title in stunning fashion on Saturday at UFC 91 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, forcing a referee stoppage of legendary champion Randy Couture at 3:07 of the second round.
Lesnar, the former NCAA wrestling champion who became a superstar in World Wrestling Entertainment, vindicated himself as a mixed martial artist by defeating one of the sport’s greatest fighters.
Lesnar (3-1) landed a booming right hand that sent Couture tumbling backward and onto his back in the center of the ring. Lesnar pounced immediately and jumped on top of his 45-year-old foe, pummeling him with fists and elbows before referee Mario Yamasaki stopped it.
“They are some big-ass ham hocks coming at you,” Couture said.
The first round was an even and cautious battle, much of it spent with the two former collegiate wrestling stars battling for position along the cage.
Couture’s plan was to try to stand and move and wear Lesnar down, but Lesnar’s stand-up was significantly improved even from where it was when he met Heath Herring in his last out, in August at UFC 87.
“I believe in hard work and that it pays off, honest to God,” Lesnar said. “I may come across as a cocky SOB, but I’m confident. That’s what the Lord gave me, my body and my mind.”
He needed his mind to remain composed against Couture, a master game planner who was fighting for the first time in 15 months after a legal dispute with UFC. Lesnar, who appeared nervous at the beginning of the bout, never made the big mistake, like he did when he met ex-champion Frank Mir in his UFC debut in February, and he capitalized when he had his chance.

I know. I saw it lol I'm the one who posted that he won
It was actually a stalemate for a while and Brock even caught a shot to the eye and got busted open. Then Brock hooked Randy and dropped him and suddenly Brock jumped on him like an animal pounding Couture's face in any way he possibly could. He's sick. Brock's going to be one to contend with

I saw the match a while ago and it was an impressive win for Brock. 3 matches and he is champion already, that didn't take long.
