GREAT ****ing card.

Btw, Brock totally won that through the roids. Oh yeah. You know it!
 
it's already been stated that the winner would face Cain Velasquesz, I think thats his name
 
I thought it was a stoppage in rd 1, Brock covered up. Oh well, props to him. I wanted a longer fight though. Carwin was gassed!
 
Ubereem would have ****ing finished him

and here we go..."Lesnar beat Carwin but he has to beat (insert other fighter name here) to be a REAL fighter"

seriously...does Lesnar have to beat God for the fans to really accept him??
 
Phew I got really scared from that first round, good thing Brock went back to his ground game and got a victory :up:
 
Outstanding main event & outstanding card altogether. Brock Lesnar with an outstanding champions performance. He showed great heart, determination & chin to comeback after Carwin's onslaught.. actually making it back to his feet & controlling Carwin for the last min or so.

First round was definatly Carwin's, Brock made one mistake & that was he threw a punch stood still & covered up. Carwin led in with an uppercut that wobbled him, which eventually led to him kinda slumbling down when Carwin was pressuring him.

He didn't actually take too many punches that landed cleanly, Carwin must have thrown about 60+ punches & 90% of them where on Lesnar's arms. I don't think he had hurt Lesnar as much as he perhaps thought he had & he ended up making himself very tired. Had the fight went to a decision the first round could have been crucial, could very well have been a 10 - 8 round on some of the judges scorecards.

2nd Round was short & sweet, Lesnar looked far fresher & Carwin looked like he had been starved of oxygen for a week. Lesnar took him down with a lovely little fient & he showed just how much his game is improving with an impressive arm triangle.

On the ground & in the clinch Lesnar is a beast, however his standup needs some fine tuning. Currently his standup isn't as bad as his haters like to think it is, he needs to work on his technique a little more so he doesn't make the same mistake he did against Carwin tonight that could have cost him the fight. Rule 1 of boxing is punch & move is it not. :D

Anyway great fight from Lesnar, his haters will now have to pin their hopes on Velasquez being able to stop him.

***** please! Don't put words in my mouth. My comment was about Carwin not being able to finish. You sure are edgy, take a ****ing pill.
 
I think Carwin threw everything he had at him, knew he did so, and probably realized he wasn't going to win

I don't know much about this Cain Velasquez guy, but he is probably Brocks next opponent
 
Ubereem would have ****ing finished him

Carwin is a far better finisher than Overeem. His average fight length until tonight was like 1 min 30 secs with almost every fight ending in a KO, TKO or submission to strikes.

I could agree more with BlackLantern on how this comment reads..
 
Great F'n fights last night.

Bonner like a man possessed trying to get the ko, Leben, wow.

And Lesnar, omg, I thought he wasn't going to make it past round one. He's not human.

Can't wait for Lesnar/Velasquez, it should be interesting.
 
Yeah, in what world can someone make an intelligent statement about how Overeem would have finished when Carwin couldn't?

At some point, you know, everybody just has to agree on what the **** reality is.
 
He ran like a little girl after getting one good punch to the face. lol
Yeah, that make much less sense than standing in front of the guy and letting him finish you.

Cain is looking like a monster right now but I actually think by finishing Carwin and taking that punishment is probably what Brock needed to prove himself to everyone now. The only thing beating Cain would do is reinforce that. Even if he loses to Cain, at least he'll keep the respect.

from a casual fan POV, the reality seems to be that Lesnar has beaten everyone put in front of him and until someone does beat him, he is the champ

So what, Overeem has 13 TKO's and over 20 first round wins, he knows how to finish fights.

It has to do with his background as a "fake" wrestler in the WWE. Die hard MMA fans are upset that he came from fake such as pro wrestling and ends up dominating in the UFC.

That's why you see other former pro wrestlers like Dave Batista and Bobby Lashley in MMA, hoping that they can duplicate the success Brock's had going from pro wrestling to the real stuff in Mixed Martial Arts.
 
Can I ask a question with a couple of stipulations? 1. I didn't watch the fight because I didn't feel like paying $60 plus taxes and fees and 2. I'm really not trying to start trouble, I need someone to explain this to me.

So Lesnar beat Carwin by submission. Ok, it seems it played out differently, but how is this any different than when Mir made Lesnar tap and everyone was like "It's not a real victory because Mir caught him by surprise and it wasn't a KO" that all the Lesnar fans were chanting?
