Brock Lesnar before UFC 116 practicing the choke that submitted Shane Carwin

Brock Lesnar perfecting this choke led to his victory against Shane Carwin at UFC 116 in Las Vegas on July 3, 2010.

UFC's Dana White discusses Lesnar vs Carwin

UFC 116 Carwin beats up Lesnar in Round 1 but can't finish him in the ref's opinion

Carwin traps Lesnar's right jab and throws a flurry of punches starting with a left jab and a right uppercut. This forces Lesnar to retreat quickly and cover up while Carwin continues to throw three left uppercuts that land to Lesnar's head. At the end of the round, Lesnar's cornerman tells him "you don't want to throw down with someone like him...you need to regroup."  While Carwin's cornerman tells him to "stay in the center of the ring. Relax."

Carwin predicts No Man Can Take My Punch When He Connects and Wants "To Trade" Blows with Lesnar

Shane Carwin has degrees in environmental technology and mechanical engineering with a minor in business and economics. Brock Lesnar was a wrestler in the WWE before fighting in MMA. Carwin was a Division 2 wrestler and Lesnar a Division 1 wrestler. Carwin is like "the Hulk" with Dr. Bruce Banner's brain and Lesnar is more like the savage Hulk. Whom do you like and whom are you picking to win tonight and why? (without bashing either talented athlete).
