Didn't see a UFC 116 thread yet and figured it's never too early.

Saturday July 3rd

Lesnar vs. Carwin

Who ya got?

It seems most are picking Carwin seeing that Lesnar finally has someone as gigantic as himself to fight. Plus this is Lesnar's first fight back from illness. Logic would point to Carwin but I just can't pick against Lesnar.

Lesnar by stoppage.

Lesnar has what 7 months of training and built up fustration having given up his belt due to illness. I'm thinking lesnar will win but it will be a good fight, I sure was wrong about the Liddell fight but i cant see Lesnar k.o. in the first round .

Carwin is no where near Lesnar's size, even though he is a large dude....Lesnar is freakishly big.

I'm a fan of both guys, but I keep seeing Lesnar knocked out in my head. Good battle no matter what! :headbang

From what I read (which is a LOT on a daily basis) Carwin's 'everyday' weight of 280-285 is nearly identical to the 'new and improved' Lesnar's. Lesnar has Carwin by 1" in both height and reach but Carwin's hands are larger.....:D

Either way I have Carwin by T(KO) in the second round.....:banana1:

Read all you want, did you see the dudes next to each other after the Carwin vs Mir fight? Not even close!

Lesnar was wearing cowboy boats with a heal on them and Carwin was barefoot.

In addition to the 2-3" heels Lesnar was wearing a suit which adds to his size appearance.....

Carwin by stoppage! The dude is a beast. Lesnar has always used his size advantage, and while he is entertaining, I don't feel he is technically as proficient. Carwin is a fighter...not an ex-wrestler, ex-football player, ex-Coors Light pitchman. I just feel he is a better all around fighter. Either way, it will be a SHORT fight and quite explosive to watch me thinks.

Indeed.

I don't see it making it past the 1st round... or early 2nd at the longest.

Tyler I was wrong, just listened to the conference call again between Lesnar and Carwin. With the new diet Lesnar said he currently weighs 265, Carwin is at 285.....

I think its gonna end in the 2nd round with a sloppy k.o. but I won't pick sides. I can see lesnar getting gassed going into the second, and dropping guard long enough for Carwin to nail him with one of those canned-ham fists.
OR
Carwin tires out due to trying to fight off lesnars size (lets face it, Carwin hasn't been fighting guys of that avg size either) and the fight ends on the ground from stoppage.

I don't think Lesnar will gas out like you think he will in the 2nd. Not sure who to pick. Should be a good fight regardless.

On a side note, where is everyone watching the fight

Not sure yet; if nobody hosts I will pay the piper and go to Champps or Hooters in Brookfield. Buffalo Wild Wings is literally one mile from me in Oak Creek but their food is okay at best and the TV arrangement is terrible. Romine’s on 27th and College also shows the fight but I was told the place is a zoo during any PPV event.....

Ill be at the BW's on Howell. It's a easy walk back home for me. Might want to get ther around 7 to get a decent seat if you have more than 5 people.

Weigh-in's on Spike right now!

Yeah...so after watching the weigh-ins Lesnar is in fact a bit bigger than Carwin. I think Carwin has the bigger arm's but Lesnar's torso is just fricken semi truck.

Nice shots by Carwin though, but obviously they really had very little impact as Lesnar was fully alert by the end of the round.

Lesnar DWARFED Carwin in size. Can't believe how huge he actually is until you put him next to another extremely large heavyweight.

When lesnar first went down I was worried. Rosenthal did a great job of not stopping a title fight to fast. You could see carwin slowing down with each punch. Lesnar is one tough guy to weather that and you could see carwin was tired when he came out. I thought when lesnar took him down so easy that lesnar was going to be able to pound on carwin now but I dam never shit when he tapped him and he did it so right and patiently that I was suprised he was so smart about it.

Carin definetly hits like a truck but I guess it takes more than that to take out lesnar hahahaha

I was also very happy to see lesnar more respectful now! I think maybe he won some of the people back that turned on him after the mir fight!

Please.
Lesnar isn't THAT much bigger to use words like 'dwarfed'.
And I can gaurantee that those first few shots by Carwin were closer than you think to putting Lesner out.


As soon as Carwin landed on his back I knew he was fucked after how gased he was. There's now way Cain is beating Brock. This dude might hold the belt until he retires.

Seems pretty easy to make that case AFTER the fght. Care to make your predictions BEFORE the fight next time? :punch:

Am so glad the ref didn't stop it. Brock was taking a pounding but hung in there. For a massive guy Carwin is a powerful and fast striker. Brock is a very tough fighter. Brock deserved to win. I think with his health issue it made him more humble. Good fights tonight.

hrsp
07-04-2010, 02:56 AM
cant lie i was worried in the first but i think the ref did a great job of not jumping in to stop it to soon...alot of times when i guy is throwing alot of punches at the head they stop it regardless if a HUGE percent are htiing the gloves or the arms of the fighter...

happy for the guy...he almost died and is still a tough SOB...he used the word humble which was nice to hear...

also nice that he earned 400k for a nights work!

Well I was definitely surprised that Brock used a submission to win a fight, kind of shows he is evolving his game which will be dangerous for years to come.

I thought Lesnar was in trouble when he was scrambling away and didn't want to get hit anymore. Carwin looked like he was going after a wounded deer :).

Also nice change of pace to see Lesnar respectful to his opponent nad even complementing Shane. Definitely a changed man

So where was your pre-fight prediction? It's MMA, anything can happen. Easy to talk crap AFTER the fight.
