Fedor went for a kill that wasn't there. I mean we all know he loves to finish fights and not lay and pray, he even said before the fight he wants to put on a good show for the fans, and he dived in looking to finish.

However people don't understand how sick Werdums ground game is, I mean he is a two time ADCC world champion. You make a mistake and you'll instantly be punished and thats what happened.

By losing to the guy that beat him, but thanks for playing

And way to bring up a 4 year old fight. Oh wait you're a Fedor fan, so that's probably standard

I honestly don't think Fedor would duck anybody, his management on the other hand...

From what I've seen Miguel Torres seems to avoid being politically correct, he had a back and forth with Ochocinco a couple months back.

I want Carwin to win but I think it will be Lesnar. I'm not sure how Carwin can keep Lesnar off of him. Now if Lesnar decides to stand up with him, Carwin has a very good chance of winning.

I really don't know and that's why I'm super excited for this fight. If Lesnar is able to take him down within the first minute of the fight I think he'll win, if not, Carwin will KO him at some point.

Lesnar is only coming in at 265 (he will not cut any weight).

Carwin will probably outweigh him by 10 pounds or so. Interesting.

Most people thought Brock would come in around 290.

The more I think about it the less I like Carwin's chances, people just automatically assume Carwin has better standup, but his boxing isn't crisp at all he just hits really hard and if he makes contact you're going down. Not that Brock's boxing is crisp either but he's a bit more of a diversed striker and he also posses the power that if he lands you're going down, he's dropped everybody he's fought with a standing punch in the UFC.

However I don't think Brock will keep this fight standing too long, I think he's just so much more comfortable on the ground, and I don't think Carwin will have much of an answer and will get pounded out in the 2nd or 3rd round.
