They prolly dont wanna take the chance of him losing, this fight will be a huge money grabber for them and prolly the most hyped fight in maybe UFC history
TUF is done twice a year not three and Carwin is supposed to return on UFC 131 in Vancouver. He doesn't have an opponent yet though.
Kenny Florian might be fighting at UFC 131 also, so it looks like a stacked card.
Lesnar vs Dos Santos
Guida vs Pettis
Carwin vs TBA
Florian vs TBA
Sylvia just sucks, he stopped a Nogueira who is well past his prime, and Kongo is seriously overrated.
I'll give him the Lesnar stoppage but that was just more Lesnar not knowing what he was doing than Mir being that good.
He looked just god awful the other day, and White is questioning cutting him.

Nobody knew who Koschek,Griffin,and Sanchez were in TUF 1 when it originally aired.
And Mir is always running his mouth, hasn't faced the reality he's not all that good and isnt getting better
Hey agree with you but Vitor was told by the UFC he would face the winner of Silva vs Sonnen and Vitor was actually supposed to fight Silva after the Maia fight but he had an injury.
I can't believe people are really questioning who gonna fight Silva next. I don't think Sonnen is gonna get an immediate rematch but he will be back.
Vitor is obviously gonna be Silva's next opponent since he was told before the fight he would face the winner of it. The only reason their are questions now is cause Sonnen shocked the world.
But does anybody agree that if GSP was able to put on enough weight and fight Silva at 185 he might just walk through him?
I was watching the post fight conference and apparently Josh Rosenthal came to Lesnar before the fight and said that if one you is in a bad situation, you have to show me something that tells me your still alive and able to defend yourself; otherwise I'm gonna have to stop the fight.
Rosenthal told Brock (and prolly Carwin) exactly what he needed and obviously Brock did what he had too. So stop B****in bout it.
Also Carwin wasn't at the post fight conference, he was at the hospital because he was hyperventilating
I though this guy trained at altitude??
Not if 5-1 means 3-0 in championship bouts and 12-1 mean 0-1 in championship bouts
I'm thinking everybody would rather be 5-1 as the champion than 12-1 as a contendor
Or Brock will win once again by learning from his own mistakes
But yeh Brock still clearly needs to work on his stricking. But I think the biggest problem was that Brock intimidated by Carwin's punching power, he was covering up and running back even before he got rocked, which might have alot to do with ring rust.
But guy's tons of heart and a granite chin only JDS can break
