So Bobby Lashley won his debut MMA fight, like Lesnar did. Will we see Lashley rise the ranks like Lesnar? Only time will tell. In wrestling there were many comparisons between the two and I can only assume the same will happen in MMA. Will Lesnar and Lashley go at it (or will Dana even ever sign Lashley supposing he continues his success, for that matter)?

The match got stopped like a minute in because his oppenent started bleeding above his eye. Lashley still pretty much dominated the opening minute, but I'd like to have seen what would have happened if the fight hadn't been stopped.

It was a quick stoppage but doesn't really tell us much about Bobby Lashley as a mixed martial artist. Just like we didn't see much about Lesnar as a mixed martial artist based on his loss against Mir.
I disagree on the last point Rob, we saw plenty of what Lesnar could become and what he needed to work on in the Mir fight. Since then the dude has busted his ass to become a better all around fighter and honestly I'm glad to see it. If he kept with the same meathead mentality like say Cro Cop, then he wouldn't be near as appealing but he figured out "hey I need to work on my ground game because there are guys like Mir and Nog out there who will twist my big ass into a pretzel if I don't"
The thing about that is, I still don't believe I've seen enough from Lesnar as a mixed martial artist. From what I do see, there's still some holes in his game. He got beat by Mir, a jiu-jitsu specialist but his next two wins were against a striker and a wrestler. Granted that the Herring was complete domination but I could hardly say that of the Couture fight.
Put Lesnar up against Minotauro and let's see him really get tested.
I still don't think I've seen enough. Then again, maybe that's a scary reflection of what's to come from him.
