Hah, Brock just completed the classic heel/face turn, straight out of the WWE playbook, with extra points for having Stone Cold/Rock in the building; even thanked the family, and had Carwin raise his hand!
Hell of a fight. I think Cain will be a tougher opponent for Brock, but man can that man take a pounding. Cat is truly an athletic freak.
It was like the Super Friends of Pro Wrestling out there. The Rock, Stone Cold, Goldberg, Brock Lesnar
Brock had Shane in the same position he had Frank Mir in on their second fight, and I thought he was going to use the same tactics....but he jumped over and put the choke on instead.. crafty.
Agreed. Just think if he hadn't gone through all of the crap he went through this past year and actually had some fight time. This guy is the MAN! BIG FAN!!!
I like Cain a whole lot but he does not stand a chance.... Carwin was a real threat... Poor Cain... He will get rag dolled....
Name one heavyweight outside the UFC better than their top3 heavies. Yeah, that's what I thought. Werdum is a UFC reject who got destroyed by Junior Dos Santos. Yes, the same Werdum that beat Fedor (and Alistair). So yeah, it says nothing about the UFC, only that there are very few good heavyweights in MMA, period.
I was a little surprised the fight wasn't stopped when Lesnar was getting pounded. So many other fights you see that and it's always stopped. But good call not to. Not much for Brock, think he is kind of a dick, but oh well......on to ufc 17 to watch Anderson Silva fight another scrub.
Props to the ref for not stopping that fight in the first, a ****ty ref would have stopped it, preventing the come back. Brock is a monster. One of the questions surrounding Brock was whether or not he had a chin... well he just took a good 10-20 shots from the hardest puncher in the HW division. Awesome night of fights.
Dude, for realz? Carwin was really the only legit guy in the heavy weight division that had a chance. Cain will get ownd, especially now that Brock is healthy and will have more training and cage time.
That was an awesome fight. Sad thing is, Brock is winning these fights off of pure size and strength. If he actually picks up an above average striking game, he may hold the belt for a LONG LONG time. Carwin wins that fight if he doesnt punch himself out. Rematch.....
