Nine months after they went toe-to-toe in one of the biggest fights in UFC history, Brock Lesnar and Randy Couture met again Saturday night in Portland, this time backstage before Couture fought Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira at UFC 102.
Check out the video below.
Although Lesnar is well known for taunting and trash talking, he has shown nothing but respect for Couture -- before, during and after their fight. It's good to see that on Saturday night, Lesnar and Couture were still respectful toward each other.
But more than that, it's amusing to see how little these guys actually have to say to each other. They respect each other as athletes, but they don't have a lot in common as people, and after a little bit of awkward small talk about Lesnar's upcoming fight and both of their upcoming hunting trips, they go their separate ways.

Doesn't seem particularly awkward to me ... ?
Brock is a force at heavyweight and isn't going anywhere, so I'm doing my best to like him. I just hope he shows some respect to his opponent (win or lose) after his next fight.

More likely, Shane Carwin will talk too much about the respecting the fans issue and end up pissing Brock off just like everyone else. Otherwise, I bet they'd get along famously.

Shane is a chump built to look like a champ, Brock never a chump built like a champ & will be a champ over the chump Shane. If your confused then just get on board cause Brock is riding all the way on this & any other fight they throw his way. Also he shows respect where respect is shown towards him. And last stop bitching about him being a WWE guy because he is proud of it, also his college wrestling years, & now his UFC domination!!! Brock is real & real hungry!

Why can't Brock act like that all the time? I know if he just acted like himself (as in the video) instead Mr. Macho cool guy then I would probably root for the guy. I know he is learning and hopefully his attitude has evolved like his fighting has since 100. I bet Lesnar destroys Carwin. No offense to Carwin but Gonzaga rocked him and I know Lesnar hits harder than Gonzaga.
