Wow...great find Ponch

Fedor invented a language that incorporates Sambo and Kimuras.

So next time FEDOR is kicking your ass, don't be offended or hurt, he may be just trying to tell you he likes your hat.

Not a confirmation.

I should have said: it reinforces what I already thought. Is that better?

Yeah Because Ron

Basically hyped both. Saying great things about both. It was a great interview but already knew what he was talking about. Hits Hard = Carwin. Superior Wrestler = Brock.

Haha!

Very true.

But a true champion, face to face with his darkest hour, will do whatever it takes to rise above. A man fights, and fights, and then fights some more. Because surrender is death, and death is for pussies. - Kenny Powers

I was under the impression that no one in their right mind should ever want to wrestle Lesnar, Carwin included.

I was also under the impression that Carwin could bring a stand up game that Lesnar is not ready for.

Carwin needed to work on TD defense and his stand up. Can you confirm that he did just that in his camp? Don’t tell me, I want to see it with my own eyes Saturday night.

That needs to happen already.

I believe Carwin mostly trains at Grudge so ANS probably wouldn’t be able to answer that for you anyway.

by stak on Jul 2, 2010 4:07 PM EDT up reply actions  

Partly True.

yes he does train mostly at grudge. But so does pretty much everyone from Gregs at some point. Its a sister gym a very close one. And Shane has spent a good amount of time in Albuquerque.

You go out to Grudge much?

Good Read

I want Carwin to win, so i’m glad to read that he is training defense off his back. Discouraging but not suprising to see that Waterman says he WILL get taken down at some point.

by Gogo121 on Jul 2, 2010 5:42 PM EDT reply actions  

It boils down to this:

Carwin must knock him out before he gets taken down.

Yahoo is blocked, WTF?

This is one of the very few sites not blocked by my company. I tried going to Yahoo and got the same message I would if I tried to watch porn. At least they don’t know what MMAMania is.

just read that for the first time..

and that was a good read!

“He said Carwin has no issues with cardio in the gym, and he can do five rounds or more training in the thin Colorado air, but said that in a fight, he can say from personal experience that it’s a different game and that Carwin is untested because of all his quick victories.”

he was spot on there!!

why did the condom cross the road? it got pissed off...
