Ultimate Fighting championship? heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar returns to defend his heavyweight championship against interim title holder Shane Carwin as Bud Light Presents UFC? 116: LESNAR vs CARWIN, live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Saturday, July 3.

I think Shane Carwin is going to win. Brock Lesnar has the brute strenght but Carwin is more experienced and has good technique. Lesnar hasn't fought in a long time also and after the last Carwin fight, plowing trough Frank Mir seems like much less of an achievement.

my money is on Brock, it should be illegal for a guy of his size to move as quick as he does.

But who knows how his sickness affected him and still continues to affect him. I don't see him winning if the fight lasts longer than a round or two.

And then there is the fact that Carwins fights don't make it to a second round.

I used to like Lesnar in his WWE days but MMA has brought out a different side in him. An arrogant and cocky one. Nothing to be so cocky about, he lost his first fight in UFC!

How is that different from his time on the WWE? :shifty:

I never really liked early WWE Lesnar not until late on...the shooting star press was sick though! definitely a high spot for him!

Didn't he get a bad concussion from that?

Yes, he suffered a severe concussion from that move.

Only a few days until 116. Thing is nobody even talks about the other main card matches. They could probably sell this on the Lesnar - Carwin fight alone.

He could turn face at any time. He was a pretty good face as well.

Amazing a guy his size doing that. Very agile.

      All good features. But it is not an actual Windows app. I’d rather use the PWA. Meanwhile but versions - Classic and Modern - are full of bugs and inconsistencies. Yuck.

    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      By AndrewSteel · Posted

      Had one user who switched to new Outlook, could not send an email he sends weekly due to file size to large error, works fine in classic Outlook. Issue just today, user received a meeting invite, when she went to add the meeting to the calendar it opened up New Outlook (she has classic open) and we could not add the invite to her calendar, We had her switch to New Outlook, it crashed when we tried to add the invite. Still hot garbage.
