UFC 131

Pictures say a thousand words. In the case of the above picture of Shane Carwin, I'm sure most of the words involve references to the need for pain pills. Shane, who has beaten all his opponents by KO or submission in the first round, got beat. Got beat badly. Junior Dos Santos broke his nose. Broke his nose, put gashes underneath both of his eyes, and tore apart his reputation. A thousand words. But actions speak louder.
If you remember one of my last blogs about Brock Lesnar coming down with Diverticulitis, you might remember that he was supposed to take on Dos Santos for this title contender bout. But Brock got sick, pulled out, Shane stepped in, stepped up, got knocked down. I'm sure Brock is laying in his recovery bed right now, after getting a foot of his intestines removed, feeling a hell of a lot better than Carwin does. After seeing this fight he might pretend to have another Diverticulitis flare up in order to avoid stepping into the ring with Dos Santos. I would. Who knows? After looking at Carwin's face he might be in the hospital laying on the recovery bed right next to Lesnar.
