Shane Carwin has been pulled out of his fight at UFC 104 against Cain Velasquez, and is now scheduled to fight Brock Lesnar at UFC 106. Poor guy. He goes from fighting a guy he should be able to beat to fighting a guy he will never be able to beat. He's going to be destoyed... and I'm going to enjoy the hell out of it! Tito vs. Coleman, that's going to be a joke. The UFC just wants to make sure Tito doesn't lose in his first fight back.
What's wrong with Carwin? I mean, why don't you like him? Hopefully this will be the end of Coleman in the UFC. I just have no interest in watching him stagger around the ring. The guy can only go about 2 minutes before he becomes that drunk guy outside the bar looking for a friend. Tito will smash him.
Since when is a title shot a bad thing? Especially in one of the most unpredictable sports out there. Don't feel too bad for Carwin.
I don't like Carwin because he took it upon himself to go around talking smack about Brock after UFC 100, and the man is NOBODY. IMO, if you're nobody, you shouldn't be running your mouth about the champion of the world. Other than that, I just don't buy the hype about this guy. I haven't seen anything special from him. He beat Gonzaga, I say big whoop. Gonzaga, to me, is always going to be this guy - 1/2 of the WORST fight I've EVER seen in MMA (his fight with Kevin Jordan). I don't care how many times you show me the head kick against the joke they call Cro Cop, Gonzaga's a bum.
I don't feel bad for Carwin. I was being facetious when I said "poor guy". I can't wait to see him take an ***-whoopin'.
Only the UFC really really wants him to run his mouth about the Champion as that nobody is getting a tittle shot. Getting mad at UFC fighters for talking smack is silly. The UFC edits interviews to make it look like it's fighters are talking smack. They take quotes out of context and try to get responces. There is a reason that all of that booze is always avaliable on TUF.
Is he? I know Dana said he was next, but I last heard that wasn't set in stone. There was another fight that supposedly was to produce the next challenger. What we do know for sure is that Silva isn't interested in that fight.
Sorry guys, I was wrong. It isn't set in stone, like Muck, said, it's just a possibility. I thought I read it was for sure, but I was wrong. Sorry slickj101. And Muck, you are right. Silva does not want to fight Henderson.
Can't blame him. He's looking for the next thing after MMA since he'll be out of the UFC before long.
The UFC edits Carwin's personal blog and ESPN's live TV interviews now? Sorry pal, that isn't the least bit true. Nobody made it LOOK like Carwin was talking smack. He just was. If Carwin would've said, "Brock Lesnar needs to be taught a lesson, and I'm the guy to do it.", I'd have been fine with it. But he was going around like he's the morality police of the UFC, and I think the guy needs to STFU.
