Once

a wrestling fanboy, always a wrestling fanboy.

Actually I think KOS is a better heel. He doesn’t come off looking like a redneck, unrefined idiot.

Just a dick.

Kos is a MUCH better heel

And is the subject of one of my next posts about the best post-fight promos cut in the UFC.

I’m going to go with Carwin in this. However, you pretty much have two giant bulls fighting in the cage with similar strengths (in my opinion), so it really could go either way.

by chrisbboy82 on Jul 1, 2010 12:08 AM EDT up reply actions  

I want Lesnar to win

Not only because Im a fan of his but because Carwin would be the most boring champion ever.

by AHutch on Jun 30, 2010 5:02 PM EDT reply actions  

however I am scared for Lesnar lol. dont have a good feeling about this one

by AHutch on Jun 30, 2010 5:02 PM EDT up reply actions  

He's boring outside the ring

But if he keeps knocking dudes out in the first round, I don’t need him to be telegenic.

Tatum: I think he's a good man. I like him. I got nothing against him, but I'm definitely gonna make orphans of his children.

by Dave Strummer on Jun 30, 2010 5:29 PM EDT up reply actions  

7 for Carwin
4 for Lesnar
1 didn’t specify (Randy)

I want Kim Winslow or Tan Dan to ref Tito Ortiz' next fight.

I thought Randy picked Carwin

No, all he did was say Carwin has “that one punch capability.”

Carwin has shown 1-punch KO power, but not against Mir...it was the 29th shot that KHTFO, and of those 17 were ILLEGAL shots (3 i couldn't see).

17 of 29 were illegal, back of the head shots, including the one that knocked him out which straight on the base of the skull…

9-17-3 (legal strikes-back of the head strikes-unable to determine strikes) including KO shot at 1:15, then followed by 4-0-0 after he was out.

by BigDNotDallas on Jun 30, 2010 7:10 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

He also didn't KO Wellisch

Wellisch was conscious and had his hands up on the ground, getting right back up when the ref stepped in. If people count that as a KO then they have to count Randy for Brock.

Lesnar has been out for a year and ring rust is real but Carwin is not a great fighter. He does not kick, does not elbow, or knee and his boxing sux, he just hits hard. He has no head movement, no foot work ,no submissions and his cardio is a ? because he has never been out of one round. He beat Mir so did Brock. Who else? Gonzaga after Gabe broke Carwin’s nose and dropped him, Carwin got up and KO’d hime with an arm punch. Carwin not Brock is the one who has walked through people because he is bigger. He has not showed any real skill at fighting the only thing he has done is show he can punch hard. I gotta go with Brock.

He DOES have Submission victory’s.

Hatteras

Did you know Brock is walking around at 265 now and when he fought Randy he cut from around 280? I think you’ll be surprised how much weight the difference will be at the weighins. Also they did a study of explosive power once and they had Olympians ect and outta 500 people Carwin was found to be the 3rd most explosive out of the group. Carwin may not be as fast as Lesnar, but he generates way more power. When I’m off work I’ll try and find the article for you. Carwin also trains with wrestlers who are better than him and Brock. Brock does not. Brocks only wrestling move is his double leg. And when he was wrestling collegiate he lost to people who could only stop his double. Don’t forget his gameplan will be through Greg Jackson. And there is no way in all of hades that Brock will keep Shane Carwin on his back.

by Pain on Jun 30, 2010 6:27 PM EDT via mobile reply actions  

Are you serious?

Who does Carwin train with that’s better than Cole Konrad or Tuchscherer that are also big guys?

Please name those wrestler and find that study that compared Carwin to olympians. Carwin isn’t as big, strong, explosive, or powerful as Lesnar.

by Hardcharger on Jun 30, 2010 7:18 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

Who are these wrestlers in Carwin’s camp that are better, because last I heard he had to resort to bringing in Ron Waterman to mimic Brock’s size.

Meanwhile Brock has serious high level wrestlers that train with him day in and day out.

LMAO!!!

Even Randy cant outright pick Lesnar! Its on suckaz!

I'm almost positive Randy was rambling

as he is want to do and had points about Brock as well, but they edited that.

Randy picked Rogers over Ubereem

Brock should want that endorsement as far away from him as possible.

Lesnar, TKO in the first.

Forrest wasn't the champion

Rashad was. Actually, I think Machida was champ when the game came out. And Rashad had already beaten Forrest when the cover was released.

Upsets come in groups of 2-3

Hate to say it, but I’m going for Carwin here. Really want Brock to smash him and hop onto his high horse.
