[GEORGIA DOMER]

tough as nails

tough as nails

yea love this. i like lesner too. the man is just bad. i'll take brown in te other fight.

i also like brown in that one. would love to see 15 min of none stop action because i dont think the main makes it half way thru the second

 

[cincy gold]

carwin will knock lesner out early, guarentee it. carwin is being overlooked and it will be a quick fight. mark it down. CARWIN IN THE FIRST

 

[mick2]

wow i dunno about carwin in the first but, i like carwin. brock is a beast tho. i think i'll name my first born brock

 

[nd1]

don't know about that can't really so for sure because who really knows but don't see brock getting knocked out at all.

 

[GEORGIA DOMER]

brock might get rocked but i see him taking shane to the ground. brock is to smart to stand and lets face it if he is not afraid to shoot on frank mir he is not afraid to go to the ground with anyone! brock by stoppage mid way through the 2nd!!!!!!!!!!

 

[NeuteredDoomer]

I can't watch this stuff.

Kirkhams don't hold opponent responsible | kirkham, beardstown, fighter - News - Jacksonville Illinois News and Information Jacksonville Journal Courier

Guess I'd rather dream of knocking some guys head off and stop him for a loss rather than kill him.

I want ice cream. Mint Chocolate Chip. Happy place. And Michael Vick is a nice guy. Leave the dogs alone and just kill each other for sport.

Unreal.

 

[Axl Rose]

WAR BROCK LESNAR!!!!!


Carwin scares me though.

 

[GEORGIA DOMER]

very tragic but the dad said it best"he wnt out doing what he loved"

 

[OchoShayneO]

cock chestner and his ugly tat are goin down!

 

[Axl Rose]

very tragic but the dad said it best"he wnt out doing what he loved"

They said he was 6-9 and 155 pounds, thats sounds very unhealthy and I think had something to do with it. I don't know if he was naturally that thin or cut to that weight but someone that frail probably shouldn't be fighting.

sad story. atleast the dad isn't trying to sue anyone or anything like that.

 

[TerryTate]

The lower circuit MMA venues do not have the best refereeing. However, the UFC is very good about stopping the fight. There is no 10 second count in MMA. Once you go out, the fight is over. This "should" reduce the amount of brain trauma that a fighter endures during a fight.

Now UFC 116 will be good. I don't think it will be great. These heavyweight fights are so hyped up, they're almost always a letdown.

I hope Bonnar can get himself back on track, that 1st fight with Forrest was awesome, and I thought he had won it.

Matt Brown is a tough dude, and Lytle is a scrapper. Chris beat Paul Daley and lost a decision to Koscheck and Marcus Davis. This should be the action fight of the night

Sotiropoulos and Pellegrino will be duking it out on the ground, both are legit grapplers.

Akiyama and Leben will be siiiiiiiiiiiiiick. Huge test for Akiyama. Chris's gigantic head will win I think.

Carwin vs. Lesnar will be a slug fest that probably won't make it out of the first round regardless of who has their hand raised. I'm pulling for Carwin

 

[IrishSLC]

I'm pulling for a great fight and hopefully Carwin comes out on top. The guy is a full-time engineer and a part-time MMA fighter. Hopefully he is strong enough to handle Lesners charge. Lesner is a brute. Should be a good one.

Carwin!!!

People simplify this match too much. You have to remember that Brock has never faced anyone with Carwin's power and unlike preveeious matches Carwin is not dwarfed by Lesnar. Also Brock had that stomach thing and there is no way of knowing how that could affect him in the ring. I still thing Brock in the 2nd round because NOBODY can hang with him on the ground. the question is can Brock take a punch because Carwin can end it with one hit.

Brock Wins: 2nd round TKO

Brock 2nd round TKO

This is true. Carwin made Frank Mir wilt. He also put away Gabriel Gonzaga in 1 minute.
Carwin is no slouch on the ground. Here's what wiki had:

Carwin wrestled in college, becoming a two-time NCAA Division II Wrestling National Runner-Up Heavyweight in 1996–97 and the NCAA II Wrestling Heavyweight National Champion in 1999. He was also a two-time All-American in football for Western State.

He's not nearly as good as Lesnar who was 106-5 in college, but Carwin can do enough to get off the ground. This fight deserves to be hyped.

Finally, someone with some sense minus the hate Brock attitude.

Brock made Mir his bitch. Yes Mir handed Lesnar his only loss but Brock is light years better than he was in that fight.

Carwin im sure is a great wrestler but Brock is one of the best ever. If Carwin doesnt win by KO in the 1st i don't think he stands a chance. With that said, there is no reason to think Carwin can't win by 1st round KO. The guy has serious power
