Besides Lesnar. Thats his thing, remarkable stamina and speed. not only for a big guy, but for any guy.People are saying Carwin has no gas tank after 116, I really have to laugh at this. He fought at a batshit pace, there isn't a heavyweight in the world who could keep that up for two rounds.
Umm, seriously? He obviously took the beating and was coherent enough to continue guarding himself. In most fights unless they feel they can no longer take the beating, they will let it go on. Within reason of course.i think they should have stopped it in the first. since when is lieing in the fetal position with your arms over your face taking elbow after elbow and punch after punch intelligently defending yourself in the UFC? ive seen 100 other UFC fights with that exact situation and the fight was stopped.
I think he knew it was his only hope. Lesnar is too smart to box it out, so he knew he had to get hit done quick or end up as he did. Carwin did a good job of neutralizing Lesnar's first "charge"/takedown attempt. That was when I knew it would be a good fight. Or at least not a one sided beatdown. Brock has really been working on other aspects of fighting not just his ground game. That is said to be why he switched to a more south paw stance to take him out of his comfort zone and force him to try new things. Its also another reason he didnt just pummel Carwin on the ground once he got him down. Evolve, or be conquered. Just as he said.Carwin should have been smart enough to not gass out in the first round - he gassed a minute or so before the round ended - then Lesnar spun out.

that was an epic fight card. one of the best fights of the night was on spike. harris rocked branch. that was an INSANE slam.
carwin had a great game plan. it's called try to knock lesnar out as fast as possible. and it almost worked. lesnar is a fucking stud. i'm glad he didn't act like a super douche after the fight. i was really impressed.
He definitely needed a little grooming and polish - looks like he's getting it - sounded much better on this post fight interview. Nobody wants to hear a trash talking foul mouth.This is key. It seems that White was pretty pissed about Lesnar slamming a primary sponser and talking trash in general. He is after all the champ and he needs to live up to that standard.
I doubt it was Dana who influenced this. What humbled him was almost dying of Mono...This is key. It seems that White was pretty pissed about Lesnar slamming a primary sponser and talking trash in general. He is after all the champ and he needs to live up to that standard.
