This has been a huge complaint since the first superfight between Shamrock and Gracie in that the submission part of the game is boring. People want this to be like a video game where you have two guys exchanging bombs. Its the old boxer versus wrestler question.

There were questions about Brocks recovery from his illness and losing a chunk of his intenstines. Also he'd been away from the game for a long period of time and hadn't been training for MMA. Also Hunt is a flat out knockout specialist, he's the rare guy that really only needs one opening to end a fight.
Of course Brock Lesnar is a freak of nature. He's the conqueror. His daily routine consists of eating, sleeping and destroying. People forget because of the wrestling thing that Lesnar is a serious athlete. He's also a very smart athlete, he knows his limitations, and he knows what his opponent is going to do, he's a pretty good game planner.
