Two of the most accomplished wrestlers to ever compete in MMA, both icons in the sport, who also have World Championships in pro wrestling. Who wins? Brock or Dan?

In 1997 Dan Severn.
In 2017 Brock.
Its like trying to compare Roger Staubach and Tom Brady. Different eras. MMA was not what it is now back when Severn competed. It was less regulated and more animalistic.

It was less regulated and more animalistic. More like comparing Red Grange with Emmitt Smith. I still picked Severn. Guy has won more championship titles than anybody. Does he still wrestle or just instruct? He looks like he can still go. |

Both guys in their primes? Probably Severn, but it's so close that I'm honestly not sure how confident I am in the answer.

I actually ran this and a few other "Dream Fights" on UFC: Undisputed 3, here's some results: Brock VS Severn: Brock, 2nd rd TKO Brock VS Gracie: Gracie 3rd round Guillotine Choke Brock Vs Liddel: Brock 30 second KO Rd 1 |

Severn lost to Mark Coleman doing exactly what Brock would do to him. I like Severn a lot and would be rooting for him though. If it was in their respective primes and Brock wasn't on steroids it'd be great.

I think prime vs prime, Dan has a great shot, he was crazy strong back in the day. |

It's no small coincidence that Brock got caught pissing hot the first time he fought in the USADA era, where the drug tests are more than just an intelligence test, unless you think he just happened to be roiding up for that one specific fight on a lark. |

Why do you think he was only using for the Mark Hunt fight? That's so silly. If he deemed it was worth using in an era with much stricter drug testing, I am absolutely certain he was sure it was worth doing back when it was comparatively the Wild West and guys were doing whatever they wanted, essentially with impunity. |

So... you have no actual proof? I don't believe Brock was on anything during his original reign on top of the UFC. I do think he used them in his Hunt fight, but not originally. You believe differently. Besides we're losing the point of the thread, which is Prime Dan VS Prime Brock, Who wins? |
