Fighting out of the blue corner, the UFC Heavy-fake champion of the world ...

... Shane Carwin?

Fake-carwin_medium

"Beating Brock does not make you Brock. I will still need to insult most of the fighters in my division, flip off the fans, insult the biggest sponsors the UFC has and then and only then will I renegotiate with Zuffa. Dana and Lorenzo have taken good care of my family and I. They have given us more than they are obligated to and we are happy. My manager always says it is not about making money when you fight but to make money when you are not fighting. We really do not have our hands out for anything more – if it comes we will take it and smile. I love fighting for the UFC and for me I choose to do this, I do not have to fight to survive. I am honored to be working for the UFC and representing them in the 'fake' champions category."

UFC Interim Heavyweight Champion, a title deemed "fake" by returning division kingpin Brock Lesnar, is a label that Shane Carwin is honored to have according to his interview with MMA Fighting. The butt-kicking brute will finally get his hands on the former WWE wrestler after months of waiting for Lesnar to heal from his bout with diverticulitis. In the "interim," he's pushed his record to 12-0 by smashing the pants off Frank Mir at UFC 111 last March. Is he the "real" deal? Or will Lesnar send him to the scrap heap right alongside the phony-bologna belt Shane brings to the cage at UFC 116 on July 3?

yea that is pretty intense for having just won a fight

"The other shape,
If shape it might be call'd, that shape had none,
Distinguishable in member, joint, or limb;
Or substance might be call'd that shadow seem'd;
For each seem'd either; black it stood as night,
Fierce as ten furies, terrible as Hell,
And shook a dreadful dart; what seem'd his head
The likeness of a kingly crown had on.
Satan was now at hand; and from his seat
The monster, moving onward, came as fast
With horrid strides; Hell trembled as he strode."

He can compete with any MMA HW and be a threat guaranteed win no but would have a good chance of winning against anyone

 His experience is his biggest question mark but with his strength and grappling ability that looks as good as a prime roided Barnett and like BArnett(255) those tools won him many of fights against great fighters.

 You really think a fighter telling people not to fight in the street is being a hypocrite becasue they do it in a cage with medical staff & trained ref making sure when to stop the action, not to mention with rules and great training is hypocrtical!?

 Loops C’mon man nothing you said makes sense. I do understandt that there are guys that are hypocrites but those usually are the guys I don’t like. Like I said as a fighter I like Shane as a person outside the octagon he bugs me because he is a hypocrite. Just becasue there is a lot of it doesn’t mean we have to like it. There is a lot of rapist in this world as well that I happen to hate, so you think I shouldn’t becasue it happens all the time? Give your head a shake bud.

I can see your point, Charlie, but your examples were not too good. The “bad boys” like Brock, for example, seem to get away with these accusations because they’re nice enough to let us all know they’re pricks.

Carwin gets criticized for it because he seems to have taken the high road, like he’s above it. So in correlation with his “nice guy” image, it’s a double standard.

Moral of the story: Act like an asshole. Be a prick. Criticisms of being a hypocrite or of having double standards won’t matter, because your “prick” status overrides it.

That's what I don't get...why is feigning being nice worse than blatant disrespect?

Because you’re “being real”? Bullshit. I don’t think Brock or Kos act like assholes all the time. They do it when it’s time to get paid. I’d rather root for a guy that is respectful most of the time, and only bashes someone he doesn’t like, then a guy playing the heel just to line his pockets. Obviously this is all a matter of personal opinion, but that’s my take on it.

I know plenty of people that are nice and respectful to pretty much everyone, but if they think someone’s a prick, they’ll say so. I don’t think that’s being fake or a hypocrite.

Mir mocked Brock before their fight, Brock said nothing. Brock whipped his ass and then made fun of him.

Randy publically respected the threat Brock posed, Brock said nothing. Brock whipped his ass and showed the same respect in return after the fight.

the brockness monster grinds up teenagers and puts them in his protein shakes..and uses razor blades to chop toddlers up into lines to snort like meth...the reason no one can find bigfoot is because the brockness monster found him years ago and now has him in numerous ziplock bags in the back of his freezer...

He wanted to make a stand. Be different. He told the media about he didnt want to entertain the media for this fight. He said he wasnt like Brock. he didnt like how Brock acted, etc. Then he does the opposite

In regard to Carwin criticizing Brock, big deal, the guy has acted like a heel which warrants criticism.

But getting attention by saying “no media this month,” and then talking to the media, is just silly. He should have said he’ll limit his dealings with the media in the first place, rather than say he’ll do none at all.

I don't think you can give Carwin any conditioning edge at this point.

The guy hasn’t fought past the first round and Brock has shown that he can maintain a fast pace throughout 3 rounds. Not saying you’re not right, but there’s not really any evidence to suggest that outcome at this point.

For Sure

Also Glad you here Yan. Just to throw some info out there. People have been saying that Brock has huge training partners and Carwin doesnt. I was talking to one of the guys up there and they said that not only are all the LHW and HW from albuquerque up there which is why 10:30 classes were so damn empty but also that Coach Whittman had gotten alot of collegiate wrestlers of course of big size to train with Shane as well.

But what i am most scared of is that he is training with smaller guys… Rashad, GSP, etc to train for the speed of their TDs. BUT not only is Brock going to bring freakish speed in his shot but he has so much more power in his shot then any of those guys. you see what im saying?

by AintNoSunshine on Jun 29, 2010 9:20 PM EDT up reply actions  

I like that a lot!

GSP training with Carwin. It will do wonders for GSP. I think Carwin is focusing on his stand up and TD defense because you don’t want to be under Brock. Ever. Who better placed than St-Pierre to teach a little TD defense? It can’t be bad.

im actually picking Carwin in this fight tho. Mir made some stupid mistakes against Lesnar, which made it easier for Lesnar to get the takedown. I dont think Carwins stupid enough to through knees or kicks, just bombs, he’ll catch him. I remember seeing Brock kinda buckle to one of Randys punches. I think Shane will put him down.

is how perfectly Brock stifled Mirs JJ. He kept Mirs hips and wrists in his control which is basically disabling jiu jitsu. Carwins bottom game is nothing in comparison to Mir and if Brock gets him down before he lands these bombs it may already be over

As he tries to avoid the right cross he’s gonna eat a left uppercut a la Paulo Thiago. Brock is gonna fall like a ton of brick. It will be very dramatic.

I think they'll stand for a while.

Shane’s gonna wanna keep it standing and Brock will use the takedown if he gets into trouble or just to mix it up.

If Brock got rocked by Randy imagine what one of Shane’s bombs will do to him!!!

And you know I actually respect Brock's skills but I still think he has a lot to prove before he is crowned the best in the world.

I’m actually starting to not dislike as much as I used too but i really can’t wait for Saturday night!

He's a fun guy to have around.

Everyone hates him but he’s alright. He isn’t as bad as you guys pretend. You guys refuse to see both sides of what was happening. It doesn’t matter, Saturday is vindication, baby.

Brock keeps the REAL belt and marches right into the top spot in HW rankings. You guys are going to be even worse when Brock is above Fedor in the rankings.

Sunday morning is going to feel sweet on this side, so take your invite, crumple it into a tiny ball and shove it straight up your candy ass.

You Know....

I agree but sometimes its just attention craving. I know when I was in highschool it was like that all the time with people. Even now at clubs, bars, fight events, etc people still get drunk or get over confident and start calling people gay, fags, etc and really its sad to see people act that way. I pretty much hate attending fights and sitting in the public sections because people get way too out of hand. Even during the walk ins and all that its pretty sad.

Dana's got the best seat in the house...and half the time he's lookin into a 16inch monitor.
