I am glad to see you changed your reference or comparison to explain your info... Because Chuck has taken so many blows through the years and STILL! has a pretty solid chin... IMO.
1 win out of Chucks last 6 fights, two losses being knocked out(one by a one armed man), two more being tko'd, and a split decision.......Chucks done. Even Dana admitted he would not fight again in the UFC.

...True, But IMO its time for him to retire. I believe his time was last year. There comes a time where heart and passion just doesn't get it done anymore when you reaching a certain age... Some peoples age frame are higher then other, performance wise.

Also, I am definitely NOT disagreeing with ROOKIE. The human body os the #1 healer but at the same time, it can only take so much. And these guys really put their bodies through the very edge of the beaking point. LESNER: What a gentle giant! Showing so much humilty regard to his performance, Carvin, coaches and everyone else but himself. IMO just as a true CHAMPION should represent on a professional level of any kind. BTW, does anyone know when they will show the fight again? I missed this event entirely! I was pissed...

Carwin gassed after the first round. Had he been able to go further, it would have been the other way around. With that being said, Lesnar is a completely DIFFERENT fighter now than he was a year ago.

^ Agree... Never been passed a 1st round EVER...IDK if I agree so much about the other way around. But also agree on LESNER maturing as a fighter and ante up'n his all around skills.

That's why I said a boxer would of beat him....Carwin was throwing hands when he knocked Lesner down, but wasnt doing ANY damage. A boxer, take a little time and calculate the punches thrown and make them count instead of blowin his load on worthless fury he threw

a boxer cant calculate his punches VS a MMA fighter cause the boxer has so many more things to worry about in a fight then a boxing match.in a boxing match you worry about a fist hitting your face.in a MMA you have about 5 more things to worry about.just watch couture vs james fight old ass couture will kill james....look at kimbo he was a good street fighter but as for MMA he sucked ass cause he could not longer stand there to throw punches.hell look at what matt Mitrione did to kimbo.kicked the shit out of his legs and he could not longer stand and fight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPtQm1-WqkI

Please do no ever compare Kimbo to a real boxer again. Place him toe to toe with any heavy weight boxer that is worth a damn and he'd wash up just like he did in the UFC. I used to tell people they were giving Kimbo cake walk fights, ie. "Tank I can't even walk to the ring wheres my walker" Abbot. The world needs to wash Kimbos name away from anything associated with MMA.
