On the face of it, Brock Lesnar has everything going for him as he returns to UFC, where he’ll fight journeyman Mark Hunt at UFC 200.

Lesnar is a former NCAA Division I freestyle wrestling champion, former WWE champion and former UFC heavyweight champion.

It’s quite the resume — unless you ask former UFC light heavyweight champion Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell.

“He was a good college wrestler, but he is afraid to get hit,” Liddell told HollywoodLife.com. “That makes things dangerous — when you have a guy that can punch, and if [Hunt] can stop Brock’s takedowns a little bit, then [Brock] is in a lot of trouble.

“I mean, he is tough and has heart because he will still fight and still keep coming and I will give him that. He has heart and he fights hard, but he is very afraid of the punch. So you just have to start punching him!”

Unluckily for Lesnar, he is set to face a fistful of extremely hard punches when he fights Hunt, who, despite his journeyman status, is a legendary knockout artist.

Whether Hunt can find Lesnar’s head before Lesnar takes him down remains to be seen, but Liddell is not alone in pointing out Lesnar’s fear of fists.

“He doesn’t like to be hit,” former two-time UFC heavyweight champion Frank Mir said of Lesnar on his Phone Booth Fighting podcast.

“Not that anybody likes to be hit, but Brock for whatever reason has shown much more of a dramatic response to the negativity of those shots. To the point where he’s not asleep, it isn’t like he got knocked out, he’s not getting dropped, but he just turns his face away from adversity. That’s a bad thing when fighting Mark Hunt, who again I think is one of the hardest punchers in the division.”

Mir has fought Lesnar twice, winning once, and in both fights Mir stopped Lesnar dead in his tracks with slick combinations of strikes even though Lesnar was still able to smother Mir to the ground.
