You know it poses an interesting match up. Shane has more experience on his side but even Shane is somewhat new into the MMA world just having his 1st professional fight back at the end of 2005. Out of his 9 fights he has won them all and finished them all. 5 via submission and 4 via KO. That is pretty impressive. I think he makes a dangerous opponent for Lesnar. I think he's capable of both rocking Lesnar as well as submitting Lesnar.

agreed.. Carwin has a decent chin as well, and he is very powerful.. Brock has the advantage in wrestling obviously but I feel if eh decided to stand and trade with him Carwin would knock him out and Brock would find himself as a rather nice .gif on someones signature

I believe that the only advantage Lesnar has over most of the heavyweight division is strength and size, but when it comes to Carwin he really doesn't have that advantage. I mean he probably weighs in at the night of the fight around 285, but im sure Carwin is only around 10 pounds shy of that at most during the fight. I think if Carwin would work on that sloppy striking, into a more crisp and accurate combination of punches, Lesnar wouldn't have shit on Carwin.
I think Carwin should fight either Antoni Hardonk or Cain Velasquez. I think he'll end up fighting Hardonk because I think ufc want Cain to rack up wins so they can build him up to be a star.

this is a hard fight to call at this point, to many unanswered questions by both fighters.
i do however beleive its only a matter of time before carwin cracks the top 10.

Carwin TKO rd 2
I thyink Cain beats them both.
...But I think Cain is the future champ... once Nog is gone. Nog dominates the UFC for a while me thinks.

This will be a great fight someday. Well, maybe not great but exciting.
No idea on this one yet.

I just hope Randy silences Brock a little bit he was so boastful after beating Herring you'd think he just won the belt off Randy lol maybe Im bitter because im opposed of how he is being thrust into a title shot with a 2-1 record and having beat Heath herring..
Back to the poll lol Ill say Carwin for now but he has yet to be really tested on the ground (Lesnar's strength)
