Here comes the... nerd? Brock Lesnar is better known as the beast of a man who forged a legendary reputation in the WWE and UFC. He's a legit tough guy and even just his stare brings an aura of a** kicker. Yet in his student days, Brock was a lot less intimidating. He was yet to develop the cocky attitude that carried him to unfathomable heights in the WWE and UFC. What he has always had is his size and toughness. He was dominant on the wrestling mat and his coaches could tell he was poised for greatness. He was a candidate for the US Olympic team, but instead opted to take the money and fame that WWE offered. This in turn gave him the public profile to jump to the UFC, where he became the biggest box office star in MMA history.
