I'll give you Brock yes. But are you talking about BJ penn's first four fights ever or just in the UFC same as Couture. They have both been around the block way before coming to the UFC.Boxing is more believable in the fact that someone actually has to work their *** off for years and years working their way up the ladder to become champion. In MMA, you can come in with no experience in MMA and within a couple fights become champion.
B.J. Penn - Gets a title shot in just his 4th fight lol
Randy Couture - wins the UFC heavyweight title in his 4th fight lol
Brock Lesnar - Wins the UFC heavyweight title in his 4th fight lol
It's impossible to do that in a sport like boxing, no disrespect for MMA, just that I don't hold it to a higher regard.
Keep note it is a Business, the guy does want to make money. I would do the same fights if I was him, If it ment I was going to bring in some money.
