i agree fully with you. give him another handful of fights to get a feel for the ring and put a little experience behind him, keep at it with the training, and this guy is going to DOMINATE the heavyweight division. In one fight I see more potential in him than anyone else in UFC's heavyweight division than I have in a long time. He moves like lightning for a man of his size, and he when he learns how to harness the strength and power and avoid stupid mistakes a little better, he is going to start raining down some major asskickings....
Has the refs not stopped the fight, Mir would have got his ass pummeled right then and there, the fight would not have lasted another 10-15 seconds. And when he did wind up losing, it was only because he made a terrible rookie mistake and stepped into an obvious setup when he stepped over Mir's leg. it wasn't his fault, its just not something he was looking for and he was a little too gung ho to step in and pound him. He won't make that mistake again.
Lesner is still young, and his determination towards his training and becoming a champion in the ufc is evident. I would bet anything that he has the belt within 2 years.
