Liddell is done for sure. Shame though, he looked in excellent shape coming into the fight.

The emperor has fallen
Lesnar v Carwin is now even more significant, if that is possible. I hope Brock steamrollers him.

Was always going to happen fairly sooner IMO
I always liked Carwin but his persona has annoyed me in the build up to saturday so now I'm just hoping for a decent fight
Brock by GnP in the 2nd IMO

Actually looking forward to watching Lesnar, at first I thought he was a bit of a chump but the guy has serious talent. I think he will win quite easily, once he's on top it's game over.

I love everything about the guy. He's possibly the most red blooded male walking the face of the planet. He only ate steak and potatoes, he only has a tv to watch hunting documentaries and he kills animals to eat them before shagging his playboy model wife on his ranch.
Add to that he is a 300lb monster that is as quick as a lightweight, he works harder than any MMA athlete and he is 100% box office draw with his comments both pre fight and post fight. Absolute legend

Fancy the man Paul? But you're correct, he is bordering on unnatural. I'll be staying up for this shiznit!

Not sure I'd agree with that but everything else is right
The scary thing is he's still getting better

There's certain American sports journalists that reckon he's the hardest working athlete period. He was supposedly in the gym 9 hours plus per day in the run up to the first Mir fight.

I've been watching the fights of lesnar and carwin, and if anyone has the chance to knock lesnar out it's carwin, i'm going to go for that as a result
No bets on it for me though, far too difficult, one thing i hope is that chris leben gets his faced smashed in, horrible cunt that he is

Leben will get knocked out early on I think, I stil lthink Lesnar will win. Carwin has big KO power but so does Lesnar, he is relentless, he will go in all guns blazing and try to take him down and finish it straight off.

Lesnar and Akiyama win for me, others are too close to call IMO
I'm really looking forward to Soszynski vs Bonnar though. Hopefully it carries on where it left off in Australia

I reckon Leben will get battered but he has a punchers chance as well.
I hope Lesnar just takes him to the mat in the first round and pounds his face same as he did to Mir second time round, if he stands and tries to prove he can box with Carwin he's a sitting duck.
The strangest thing about Carwin is his knockouts all come from short, sharp hooks or jabs there's no looping punches or upper cuts you'd normally see from a knockout artist. You'd suspect Lesnar's gameplan will be not to get into a dirty boxing match with him.

Is there any question about Lesnars health though after everythign that has happened?

If you listen to him and his camp nah but common sense would say if you've not fought for a year and spent a fortnight being fed intravenously with your life on the line then it must take some toll.
I hope not right enough.

Yeah I's be disapointed if he didnt come out with the same charisma/stamina and must win attitude that he always has, it will be interesting to see if he takes it easy for a round or 2.
