What if TOney hits him on the chin?

I'm sure he will, but I wonder if he's been practicing getting the same kind of power on it from laying flat on his back. Or trying to throw bombs after 14 minutes pressed against the cage.

He's definitely going to be put in positions he doesnt normally fight from and he'll probably be finished before he can get out of there.
 
I feel like throwing up. fecking hell.

Brilliant stuff from Werdum though
 
So now if he sticks to his word, Werdum Vs. Brock coming up. If Brock survives Carwin, Velasquez and Dos Santos that is...
 
At least it wasn't a prolonged beating or something that would suggest he's shot. Just a mistake that he'll probably rectify if there's a rematch. When you think of the number of near-impossible situations he's recovered from in fights, I guess one was always going to come that he couldn't get out of.
 
I suppose Overeem is next for Werdum, unless Fedor gets an instant rematch.

Otherwise I think Fedor - Barnett is on the horizon.

I feel like crying. But, silver lining, perhaps this has postponed a potential retirement for Fedor.

Just hope Carwin smashes Brock.
 
Just a careless and complacent performance from Fedor.
 
Very careless by Fedor, as if he didn't prepare for his opponents strengths.

Mind you this will create a lot of buzz now with Fedor on a revenge mission.
 
Apparently Fedor vs Werdum II could be in the works. Werdum doesn't seem bothered about Overeem and wants to give Fedor a rematch, and Fedor may have an instant rematch clause in his contract anyway. Two been really classy following the fight, no excuses from Fedor, nothing but respect from Werdum. Hopefully the fight happens.

Hopefully Carwin wrecks Lesnar's shit tomorrow :D I'm looking forward to Leben - Akiyama as well
 
I actually like Lesnar, I think he's entertaining and obviously he's just playing up to the cameras. However, his title run was feeble, the belt was handed to him on a plate and he's insanely overrated. I do hope he stays in the sport a while, I just want to see him lose the title asap and have to earn his way back to it. At the moment, with his record, having him at the top of the division is a joke.

Although I suppose if he loses he'll instantly be #1 contender and get whoever wins Carwin - Cain
 
I wouldnt be surprised if Brock shocks a few people tonight and over the next few years in terms of what progress he's made and will make in the future. Having said that, just because he adds some new things to his game and looks good tonight despite the ring rust, doesnt mean he wont get knocked out. One things for sure, its a fight thats going to end with a finish not go to decision.
 
Yeah just go to justin.tv when its time and type in ufc for the search. With a few tries I'm sure you'll find something. As well it'll have links on myp2p.eu in the other sports sections. I could link a few channels that have had mma events on before, but I find that usually when a link is posted on here it goes down very soon. So best to find your own using the methods above, else lots of people will be missing it.
 
Thanks, but I meant tomorrow afternoon. I usually record it then watch it sunday afternoon/evening, but have no facilities to do that this weekend.

Well some of the pirate sites out there were taken down on the first of this month, including the ones I would usually use. So we'll see what pops up I guess...

Just download off Torrentz.com

I got the Strikeforce event last week no probs off that at about 10am Sunday Morning
 
Nice armbar by Ricardo Romero there.

Tuscherer knocked out by Schaub very quickly.

Great slam K.O from Gerald Harris.
 
Been a great card, lots of great fights. Leben - Akiyama is pretty awesome, both completely gassed but slugging it out in slow motion
 
Great resilliancy from Brock to be honest. How he's still in it, nobody else would be. Round 2 for the first time for Carwin.
 
Carwin annihilated Brock, but he's gassed now. Hope he can finish it 2nd round
 
Not bad from Brock, took a massive beating and subbed him whilst he gassed. Kind of feeble ending from Carwin considering he was destroying Brock.

What a great event though! One the best UFC's in a while

Brock vs Cain will interesting
 
Carwin put a beating on him in the first round, but Brock is superhuman. And he's someone with so much potential, this is just the start.
 
Damn. Carwin nearly finished him in the first. Good comeback from Brock.

Brock v Cain should be a good fight. Not sure where Carwin goes from here.
 
His potential capped with his gastank. Difficult to take these super heavyweights seriously with their cardio problems. Carwin was like a newborn baby after his barrage, Brock was on his last legs as well.

If Brock can't finish Cain early he's going to have to spend 4 rounds convincing the ref he's defending himself. Impressive he survived that devastating torrent from Carwin but if Carwin had any kind of endurance he'd have won that fight by murder.

Great event though, best UFC I've seen in a while. Every fight was great viewing.

Brock will take Cain down and control him. Nothing Cain can throw at him will hurt half as much as he was tonight and he'll be pounded out. Thats if Brock doesnt go for another suprise submission.

You think Brock can hold Cain down for 5 rounds? Cain may not have the power of Carwin but he has insane endurance, he also has serious wrestling credentials of his own. If it didn't finish in the first round Brock would end up a heap on the floor with Cain raining punches into his head, and he'd lose by ref stoppage or decision.

Lesnar looked pretty pathetic tbh, he had absolutely nothing for Carwin until he gassed. It was a Homer Simpson boxing performance, reminded me of that Russow-Duffee fight. He's the new Fujita.

He had nothing because his head was getting sqaushed like a melon under two asteroids. Something that will only happen to Brock Lesnar in a fight with Shane Carwin. None of Cain's striking is going to stop him, although he could obviously win a decision with technical striking on his feet. If he can weather the storm from Carwin then all Cain has to offer is a slightly nippy breeze.

Its not going to go the distance though. Cain will be taken down at some point, he will be finished.
