In the Carwin weighed in at 265 at his last fight as does Lesnar. When Lesnar walked inside the octagon to speak to Carwin he looked huge and Carwin is a big guy. I think Lesnar will have a size advantage. I think Carwin has the edge on the feet as well. His standup is impressive, biggest hands in the UFC and he has a lot of power in those shots. Lesnar will get ko'd if he's not careful but that's why I think he'll be going straight for the take after he stands for a bit.

Also thought the Aldo v Faber fight was huge. His leg kicks to the knee took Faber out a few times. Faber looked in poor form after the fight. I thought the whole card was pretty good.

I had 5th row seats at the Aldo/Faber fight...but the REAL show (and fight of the decade!) was watching Leonard Garcia vs. Chan Sung Jung!!!

BTW, I am SO happy that Dana White threw Paul Daley out of the UFC for his cheap-a$$ shot at Josh Koscheck after the fight was over tonight! Koscheck is definitely a man of class for walking away from that!!!

Check it out...and Dan Miragliotta rocks!

Cheapshot for sure. But in a way, I felt Koscheck deserved it for his acting jobs in the last 2 fights.

+ 1 I had 6th row at 112 and it was unreal. I agree with you that Dana white did the right thing in kicking out Daley.

I don't endorse Paul Daley's actions at all. He was out-beaten and outclassed during the fight. To pretend to congratulate him and then take a cheap shot after the fight is very unsportsman like across all codes of competition.

Koscheck is def a bordeline doucher but if you gotta problem w/ the man, punch him in the face while he's expecting it. Like Joe Rogan said, it was the best shot he landed all night.

It does suck he's out of the UFC, he was an exciting fighter. What a dumb ass though

as much as I like Machida, it was nice to see Shogun win, since he def won the first fight.

Now, lets get ready for Rampage and Rashard, they better not let us down after all the hype

[Buschy]

Yeah not a fan of Koscheck, but defenatly dont like that bullshit that Delay pulled.. I am glad that he is out, no matter what talent he had. UFC is already borderline WWE with Lesners nonsense interviews.
UFC is the best and it needs to stay professional..

[BMW86]

I still can't believe Machida got KO'd in such devastating fashion. His perfect record is gone. Shogun sent a message out to the LHW division. I hope Silva finally decides to step up and take on some new fighters including Shogun. Shogun is the real deal. He has all the weapons and tools to be a champion for a long time even though the LHW division is stacked at the moment.

+1000 on that! Come on, he got called out by numerous replays of his acting like he got kneed in the face! I thought I was watching the NBA with that kind of acting going on.

yea, i agree. he def paul pierced it and would have made a soccer player proud

but either way, if you dont like the move, punch him during the fight not after, just a weak ass move

[CSMRX7]

I hate Koscheck, think he is a douche, especially when he said he would trade with Dailey but then just laid on top of him when he got the take down. Awesome take downs but then really didn't do anything impressive with it.

But regardless of the Dailey was an idiot for the cheap shot and deserves what he gets, however I think Koscheck isn't much better. He is a cheat. First faking the eye poke in the last fight and now the knee. I hope GSP steamrolls him.

[BMW86]

I actually think Koschek is the best matchup for GSP in the Welterweight division. He's got a solid ground game and his stand up is really good now. It'll be interesting to see if GSP takes the fight to the ground or not. It could well end up being a wrestling match.

Rashad or Rampage?

I love how shogun stopped before it was even called. lol that class

it will be an interesting fight to say the least. GSP out wrestled Koscheck in the first fight and GSP take downs have gotten way better since. While Koschecks wrestling is the same as before but has really stepped up his stand up

im hoping for rampage to get knocked out, he ran his mouth way too much

[Hedges]

I want to see Lesnor back in action!

The only reason GSP out wrestled him is cause Koscheck tried to box him. Josh never expected the GSP to shoot so it was just a bad gameplan on his part. I think it will be the other way around this fight. Not saying that Koscheck will even win, but I think he will definitely win the wrestling part of it.

good point but as good as Koschecks wrestling is dont you think he could have stopped a couple?

This is the part of the fight that intreagues me, very interested to see if now that koscheck knows if he will be able to stop them. but judging from GSPs previous fights, i dont see anyone who can stop them. he is too fast and covers distance way too quickly for most to react

[SpmnE9zero]

Drew you know Josh better than any of us, I think you are right about one thing, Josh is one hell of a wrestler, but GSP is just so well rounded and good at everything and also great at defense against anything you can throw at him. He is very collected in the octagon and nothing really seems to phase him. I think this will help him in his victory over Kos.

I agree 100%. Josh is a great wrestler, and I really dont think there is a better wrestler in the UFC than him! But at the same time its not all wrestling when you have to try to wrestle and box at the same time it is a whole different story. Koscheck is getting better at it, and I think he will keep growing. GSP on the other hand is the best all around guy hands down. He may not be the best boxer, or the best wrestler, but he is the best when you combine the two.

In the last fight GSP really didnt do that much damage to Koscheck and I believe one or two judges even gave Josh a round. I think both fighters have grown since that point, we will just have to see who puts it all together on that night!! Should be a good one

I agree, the best thing about both of them is their character, they are both really good dudes and respect each other as it should be. I think Kos's hands are def getting better!
