They say he didn't train much...But thats a lie. I can tell just by his newly modified stance and how comfortable he was in it, that he trained a shit load for this fight.

If Carwin can get his stamina up to last all three rounds, then he can beat Brock. Otherwise, we're in for another quick match. I've never seen Brock get all bloodied up like that before. That was AWESOME! He looks much better with blood all over and a fat lip.

As for a boxer vs. mma fighter......Well, this has been done time and time again. If you pit a stand up fighter of ANY kind...karate, tae kwon do, boxer, krav maga, ANY kind.....against a decent grappler, the stand up guy usually looses. Case in point: Ron Van Clief vs. Royce Gracie. Classic fight when EVERYTHING was legal. Eye gouges, groin shots, EVERYTHING was legal. This was when it was a "real" fight without any rules. Royce gracie beat RVC pretty quickly by forcing the tap. Took the stand up MASTER down to the ground and out of his element. Granted, VC was like 50+ when he took the fight. But he should have been able to do more than he did. The result? RVC has been training in BJJ ever since, so he can add it to his arsenal. I realized about a year and a half ago that I needed ground work. So, I started doing ground work. Now, I compete in amateur MMA events every now and then. (Up in Louisiana and Alabama) But my point is that a determined grappler WILL take a striker down, and pwn them on the ground.
