Lesnar weathers early storm to submit Carwin in 2nd round


Brock Lesnar is one tough S.O.B. Tonight, Lesnar proved that he is more then just a freakish athlete. He is a tough, durable, and rapidly improving champion with a vast array of weapons at his disposal. Despite getting dropped to the canvas and severely hurt early in the first round by a vicious uppercut, Lesnar managed to somehow survive a brutal ground and pound beating. Shane Carwin appeared to have victory secured as he mercilessly pounded Lesnar's gigantic head into the mat. Yet, almost miraculously, Lesnar persevered. And as Carwin's punches rapidly lost steam, it quickly became apparent that Carwin had punched himself out. Reminiscent of the infamous Ali v. Foreman heavyweight championship fight, Carwin battered Lesnar, throwing all of his power behind each shot. However, the longer the champion survived, the more tired Carwin became. By the time the bell rang signaling the end of round one Carwin had nothing left. As he sat on his stool, Carwin's shook his head in disbelief. Lesnar had taken his best shots and was still standing strong across the octagon. At that point, Carwin must have known he was in deep trouble. When round two began Lesnar leap to the attack, gaining the early take-down. Once Lesnar achieved mount position the fight was virtually over. Unable to defend himself, Carwin succumbed to a beautifully timed arm triangle.
