Rooting for Carwin

Recommended Posts

I hope for the sake of wanting the Lesnar v. Carwin fight to happen that Carwin beats Mir. I for one do not want a Mir v. Lesnar III because watching another mauling like the first two fights is not appealing to me (I know Lesnar lost the first fight). But I am ready to see some new threats posed against the beast they call Lesnar. I know Lesnar could get caught in a submission against Mir but I think we all saw at UFC 100 that Brock learnt from his mistakes in his first fight and neutralized Mir's BJJ at 100. Now with Carwin on the other hand, he is a great wrestler, maybe not as good as Lesnar, but still is a great wrestler and should be able to neutralize Lesnar for the most part in that aspect. So, with that said, the fight could be forced to be a stand up war, where Carwin, I believe, has the upper hand. Man I was extremely excited for Lesnar v. Carwin, and like I said hope Carwin can beat Mir for the sake of making that match up happen. I'm stoked for Mir v. Carwin as well. Man that’s gonna be awesome fight. Awww damn Dude!, all I can say is "Let's go Carwin!"

Hoping for MIR, and I think he's got the better chance. Carwin could end this easily though with all the power he possesses in his hands. I constantly hear that MIR is in trouble is he tries to stand with Carwin, but Carwin's size and wrestling means he probably dictates where the fight takes place. MIR has to be creative with the takedowns!!!!!!

Im not that bothered about this fight tbh! if Mir looses he will still fantisize about a rubber mach with Brock n the whole mir v lesnar circus will contine till i happens! Carwin imo is over rated if he beats Mir then il start believing some of the hype but beating 10 cans n getting lucky with GG is all he's done ! Mir i cant stand him and his stupid chin wig! so as a fan its either mir wins n the circus gets put to bed with a ruber match or carwin wins and mir v lesnar circus continues for another year! n no i dont like lesnar either b 4 u ask

I think mir has a good chance agaisnt carwin, his boxing technique is better and he certainly has a chance of dropping carwin with a few hits. Carwin however is likely to KO mir in 1 hit but lacks the technique that mir has. Its gonig to be an interesting fight. I think it will go into the second ronud and carwin will tire out quickly getting subbed by mir or something along those lines.

 

I dont think this will be a first ronud finish.

 

Hoipe carwin wins though sicne he has a better chance against brock, albiet a fight with brock will likely go into the championship ronuds were carwin would loose due to cardio.

I'm a big Mir fan, but I'm either pulling for Carwin in this fight, or for it to be such a war Mir can't be ready for July and Cain gets the shot.. Just because I want to see Lesner against someone new. Its not time for Mir vs Lesner III. I mean come on, of Lesners 4 fights in the UFC 2 have already been against Frank.

Carwin hasn't even been tested yet. The biggest name he has fought is Gonzaga who hasn't been to impressive lately. Also the longest fight Carwin has been in is 2:11 of the first round although he has a wrestling background(usually good conditioning) if this goes 3-5 rounds conditioning may be a factor. At least if he somehow finds a way to beat Mir he will legitimately deserve his title fight with Lesnar unlike the last one he didn't end up getting anyways. This fight could go either way and should be very a interesting striker vs grappler match up.

Read the sig. If I am proven wrong, you can throw it in my face. So all you Carwin guys go ahead and save it. Ill be here right after the fight to say I told you so. Just like I was when Jones beat Vera. I thought Vera had it, I was right here takin the shots from the Jones train. It is what it is.

-I was pretty sure I was talking about Carwin/Mir and not Lesnar Mir. Carwin is not the same calliber wrestler as Lesnar, nor do I think he's as much of a genetic freak. If you want to have a valid debate write something other that are you crazy???

He is blinded by the shiny Carwin Hype train.

Yep, one of the reasons I want Carwin to win as well, is that Mir and Lesner will have fought in 3 out of 4 of Lesner's UFC fights if he was to win against Carwin this Sat.

first, mir is a new beast. better and bigger then ever.

carwin would be a good match up with brock and i would like to see them at it along with a lot of interesting match ups... but in mir/lesner3, you have instant fireworks with mir prepared for the fight in more ways then one. not to mention the biggest rivalry in ufc with hate and insanity in the air.

i believe there weigh ins and ring face off before the fight is going to be more exiting then some of fights we see this year.

predictions------mir second round win via tap out.

i believe mir is going to stand with him and make carwin chase him. mir will use his boxing to keep carwin at bay for the first round and use his experience in the second round to take it to the ground and a win by submission...
