Title: Fedor was right...
Post by: MindSpin on July 04, 2010, 11:53:18 AM
After losing for the first time in some 10 years, Fedor Emelianenko famously said "The man who doesn’t fall, doesn’t stand up."

On Saturday night, Brock Lesnar fell and he fell hard. Shane Carwin’s freakish punching power looked like it was too much for the supposedly unstoppable South Dakotan freight train. Both standing and on the mat, Lesnar ate everything Carwin had to offer for nearly five full minutes.

It was near the five minute mark that Lesnar did what no one had done after taking Carwin’s best shot -- he stood up. Now that this most unlikely of UFC heavyweight champions has secured his place atop the division, there is a certain poetic justice to him living up the words of his predecessor.

I was very suprised they didn't stop it in the 1st round.  I was also surprised that brock won by a submission!  wow!  and his humility after the fact.  Not his biggest fan but impressed.

I definitely gained some respect for Brock on this fight.  If we're all honest, the guy is cocky and is at the top of the heap not because he has great skill and technique, but because he is a beast with crazy cardio and a hell of a chin.  The guy will only get better from here, and he'll not face anyone who hits as hard as Carwin for a long time.  He's only going to get better.  I don't see him losing for a while.

lesnar got embarrassed, he's lucky he fought a one dimentional slug with no cardio

apollo creed said it best "it doesn't take a man to take a beating"
