Brock Lesner verse shane carwin

Straight Cash · 06-21-10, 04:51 AM

Should be the toughest fight each have had so far in their career. Tough to say what will happen...

sirchadwick1 · 06-21-10, 05:55 AM

Shane's hands scare me away in this fight. Normally I'd be all over Lesnar at -165, but coming into a fight after being on his near deathbed and a layoff against some big bombs makes me think Shane is the best bet.... if you believe in him.

agreed! people are going to pound lesner.. but look for the underdog shane carwin to win this outright with a KO!!!

Vrakas · 06-21-10, 06:43 AM

car-win will win.

Reload · 06-21-10, 07:34 AM

Can't wait for this one.

I think the -750 I've been seeing on the fight not going the distance is another gift. Seems like it has a less than 1% chance of happening.

Be careful with that one. Lesnar may take this one to the ground and may look a lot like the Heath Herring fight, which went the distance. Lesnar is by far the better wrestler and will croud Carwin on the ground.

BOL Everyone!

yeah not sure i like that one also... carwin said he wants to go to the 2nd round and show people that he has the cardio and endurance to take it there!.. also this is a huge fight and they will probably start off a little slower

JohnnyD4916 · 06-21-10, 06:06 PM

I will put a small bet on Shane Carwin.

JuicedUp · 06-21-10, 06:16 PM

Brock is not going to stand with this dude. He's going ro bull rush his ass, take him down at will, and put a beating on him.

jin2daj · 06-21-10, 06:29 PM

yeah if i had to bet, i would bet on carwin too, but i really think this fight is like 5050

beanbag · 06-21-10, 08:21 PM

yeah i love this play...

vassman86 · 06-21-10, 09:00 PM

Public perception puts Lesnar as a favourite. But he's got ring rust, and Carwin is quite possibly one of the most under-rated fighters in the UFC's HW division. Plenty of value on Carwin.

GunShard · 06-21-10, 11:14 PM

Carwin has heavy hands.

Carwin wins by either KO or Decision.

Lesnar poor at Submissions. I have no idea Carwin if just as bad. Both are wrestlers.

GoldRush7 · 06-22-10, 12:25 AM

It's going to be very hard for me to bet against a man who hasn't had a single fight go out of the first round and has ended every fight decisively... With that being said, I think he finally will come down to earth in this one. Brock is a bad motherfuker

SweatySombrero · 06-22-10, 01:08 AM

[COLOR=#000000 ! important]Take Shane Carwin +150

Shane carwin has won 12 fights ALL in the first round!

This is a gift from the sportsbook gods!

don't think about it too much!

naw. brock lesnar . all the time

Straight Cash · 06-22-10, 04:52 AM

It'd be interesting to see how they both fare if it hits the 4th and 5th...

36mafia · 06-22-10, 12:02 PM

great opportunity to arb

sundin4prez · 06-22-10, 12:10 PM

going with lesnar... again i cant go against the better wrestler.... theres a big difference between d1 and d2 level wrestling.... also seeing this going all 5 rounds....

vassman86 · 06-22-10, 03:35 PM

Well said. I think Lesnar will be less of a favourite once the fight nears. Carwin shouldn't be such a big ML underdog

playa420 · 06-22-10, 04:19 PM

i dont see how carwin is gonna be able to stop brock from taken him down and pounding on him.Brock at -165 seems like a pretty good deal

Tree Rollins · 06-22-10, 05:06 PM

The big question is obivouslyif Brock will be able to get the takedowns and control Carwin physically. If he does, clearly, he has a great shot. If he can't take Carwin down, he'll probably end up taking a nap.

Eccocide · 06-22-10, 05:10 PM

Gonzaga was able to take him down (albeit Carwin might have been a little dazed), I don't see how Brock won't be able to do it. Keeping him there might be a little different of a story, but I wouldn't bank on it.

Chairib · 06-22-10, 05:19 PM

Brock's got to turn it into a grappling match, he's got the advantage there. Limit the situations where Carwin can throw strikes and get him focused on defending the takedown or pin him up against the fence in the clinch.

Kaladarus · 06-22-10, 05:49 PM

No ones tested Carwin the way Lesnar is going too. You can also say the same thing for Lesnar though. Lesnar hasn't been finishing his opponents very fast. Decision with Heath Herring who isn't that great a fighter, 2 round TKO to Randy Couture (a guy who is 70lbs lighter than Lesnar) and a 2 round TKO to Frank Mir. Also Frank Mir almost KO'd Lesnar and was only half the fighter he was when he fought Carwin. Couture had a successful takedown in the Lesnar fight. Lesnar has proven not to have much finishing power. As far as cardio goes, I think Carwin will have better cardio, due to Lesnar's illness. KO power and striking advantage goes to Carwin also. Lesnar will have a small speed advantage in the start. Even as a grappling match, Carwin is strong and the fight starts standing. If Lesnar comes out like he has in the past and doesn't finish fast, I think Carwin will have plenty of opportunities to take him out. Lesnar not only needs to use his wrestling immediately, but do enough damage to stop the fight.

sportsfanatic · 06-22-10, 06:11 PM

carwin is a beast and i think he would knock out lesnar in a stand up but brock is going to take him down the first chance he gets and go for the ground and pound.

jin2daj · 06-22-10, 06:46 PM

lesnar says he wont have to cut weight to make 265 this fight. sounds like he lost a little weight

Chairib · 06-22-10, 06:49 PM

Carwin's got to get this fight over early if he's going to win, the longer it goes the more it helps Lesnar.

yep he's on a new diet incoperating fruits and veggies.... can you believe this guy before his illness he said 6 out 7 days he manly ate meat?.... lesnar should roll in this fight, sadly the only type of fighter thats going to beat brock is a fast fighter with a granite jaw and good ground skills..... ie. not necessarily fedor but some of that ilk

Handjuice · 06-22-10, 07:51 PM

I see Brock taking Carwin down and grinding out a decision. I've included him in a long term parlay.

Tree Rollins · 06-22-10, 08:36 PM

I'm betting Brock in this fight.

What's the odds on this fight to go to decision?
