| Anyone watch the fight lastnight? Carwin was so close. Each fight was entertaining. I was great to see that that meat head Brock turned humble after his health scare. |

Damn Carwin punched himself out...
I guess he got a little emotional and stopped thinking...
Did anybody notice that Lesnar seemed a little more reserve in his post fight comments?? |

| Carwin totally punched himself out. Consider Brock a different man; thank the lord because his grandiloquent speeches + demeanor in the past was hideous. |

| Dana White should definitely be a happy man after the high entertainment value in last night's event. Bonnar was fortunate, in the sense that he was losing up until that point, and was struggling in the stand-up. However, I am glad he won. I was gutted about Carwin, but once the opportunity presented itself, there was nothing else that he could have done than just go for it. I think most fighters, and especially heavyweights, would struggle to recover from that amount of exertion in the 1st round. |

What are you talking about? When Lesnar came to the UFC the HW title was vacant since Randy Couture was in contract disputes with Zuffa. In addition to that the division was poor at best consisting of an unmotivated Frank Mir, Big Nog, Heath Herring and Congo. There was no Cane, Carwin or Junior Dos Santos - a competitive UFC HW division is actually a very recent development. So that coupled with the WWE name recognition, 100+ fights as a division 1 wrestler and freak athleticism you can see why he got the fast road to the title.

not to mention it's a bit lopsided. i mean, should someone have like 50lb advantage over an opponent? |
Carwin actually weighed in more than Brock for this fight. But that being said...yes, the rest of the guys in the division, especially Lesnar's next match (Cain Vasquez) are going up against a huge weight disadvantage. The only dude who can truly test Brock at this point in my humble opinion is a dynamic strong striker who's got a good sprawl - and that's Alistair Overeem. |

Yes it was one of the best over-all UFC events that I've seen...
But Silva's is next so I'm sure it'll be boring as usual... |

The UFC's heavy weight division is and has been sub par for ages. The first opponent that Brock faces that is even remotely close to him in size and strength he beats with a submission hold. I'm not a brock lesnar fan but there just isn't anyone in the heavy weight division who can stand up to lesnar. |
