We learned 3 things tonight...
« on: July 04, 2010, 12:07:00 AM »
1. As much as I hate to admit it, Lesnar is a true badass.  He took everything that the most heavy handed MMA fighter in the world had, and still persevered.  He then managed to take him out in the 2nd round.  This beast will only get better from here  :o

2. Carwin is a monster, but he has questionable cardio.  Maybe it was the adrenalin dump of such a high profile fight, but I bet it's likely all the muscle he is carrying.  Either way, he is still one of the top 5 heavyweights today.  :D

3. The UFC has a legitimate heavyweight division with real talent and lots of interesting match-ups to come.  ;)

The three things I learned tonight

1. UFC refs call it as they want to, or paid to. We've all seen hundreds of UFC fights and we've all seen acts like last night end in the first round. Brock's face was being turned into hamburger and the ref didn't stop it like so many have in the past. If all the refs call it like this from now on then I'll be fine with it, but we'll see if a few weeks a fights get called the second a fighter curls up. Like what should have happened last night.

2. Brock can take a punch to save his life. He can only rely on bodyweight NOT strength to win. When he was on his back he was useless, and when he was standing he was useless. Brock can only win being on top where his weight can help.

3. The UFC is all about money. (already knew that a little) Read message boards all over and everyone is saying the same thing. Fight should have or shouldn't have been called. This will end up leaning to a Lesnar/Carwin 2 where Carwin will win and then a number 3.

You took the words right out of my mouth.  How many fights have we seen in the past where the ref had stopped this?  UFC=Joke

The UFC heavyweight division is a joke.  how can you say anything else.  I really lkike Lesnar but he is far far away from being a real MMA fighter.  he has NO standup and NO BJJ.  His saving grace is his strength, size and wrestling skills.  You can see where his wrestling skills are overpowering when he gets on top,  His first reaction is to pin the guy down and keep him down.  He then goes into the GNP mode.  What surprised me most is the choke out. 

By the way I bet you hate it when you are wrong so much.  I love how you back peddle though

We learned 3 things last night

1.  Mindlesspin cried himself to sleep after Carwin lost
2.  Mindlesspin called Fudgepacker right after the fight to comfort him and assure them both they will still be able to jack off to Dana White's poster without feeling guilty
3.  Mindlesspin pretends to be an expert and know it all, but fails.

1. Lol @ you for wishing the fight should be stopped prematurely. LOL @ at all Brock haters who wanted the fight to be stopped prematurely. Maybe that was Carwin's only chance to win, a premature stoppage. ;D

2. LOL @ you who think Brocks bodyweight made him win. Jay Cutler is heavier than Brock and he would not even stand a chance against a lightweight.  ;D

3. LOL @ you for relying on UFC conspiracy theories cooked up by teenagers on the internet ;D

Brock's gameplan= Let Shane beat me within an inch of my life and hope he gasses paid off.  His stand up is so atrocious I was embarrased for him, he was reduced to turtling up with his back turned running before anything really landed.  Poor way to represent the HW belt and pathetic display of cowardice.  So in closing I learned 2 things,  Out of the UFC's top 2 HW's - Brock is deathly afraid of getting hit and still has zero offensive striking abilities to add to his phobia of being hit, and Shane Carwin has piss poor cardio.
Predictions
 40/61

1. True badasses run away like scared children with no standup AT ALL?



2. Carwin is legit but got a nice pay to tap. Were's the leg defense in the sub?

3. Ufc is finally rigging fights to get the most money out and we can look forward to JDS and Cain being layed and prayed upon because Lesnar is a better DIV1 wrestler lolllllllll.

We learned 3 things yes:

1. Lesnar has a monster chin

2. Lesnar has zero striking skills on his feet

3. Carwin will never be a champion because he has zero cardio. He trains a lot of heavy weights and olympic lifts. If he changes his tranining much of his power will be gone....and his cardio will still not be great

For a man with a monster chin he was sure doing the running man, I don't think ben johnson would have caught up to him.
