The Associated Press ran an article on Brock Lesnar's move into UFC today, which you can check out at USAToday.com. UFC has received a ton of press coverage for Lesnar's debut.

Randy Couture has weighed in on the Brock Lesnar hype and whether he thinks Brock is ready to face a former in his first UFC fight:

"Obviously I have a lot of respect for Brock Lesnar's wrestling ability. He was an NCAA champion, which is an elite group of individuals. I don't think it was a wise choice to jump in and fight a former heavyweight champion. He has the potential to be a legitimate MMA contender. But we won't know until he fights legitimate MMA competition."

Couture picked Frank Mir and Tim Silvia as winners for this weekend.
