Shane Carwin Has Some Issues With Brock Lesnar's UFC 100 Antics
Our Twitter buddy Shane Carwin let some of his true feelings about Brock Lesnar be known after last night's showing at UFC 100. While "Darwin" Carwin had been trying to play things pretty close to the vest about potential future heavyweight match-ups, it seems like Lesnar's complete lack of respect for everyone within the range of his vision during last night's main event rubbed him the wrong way. He went into greater detail on his website:
The flipping off of the fans that just lined your pocket with millions of dollars is just LAME. He may be a Champion but he has a long ways to go before he earns the respect of a Champion. The fans are why we do this Brock, this sport is not about fat paychecks and drama it is about hard work and sacrifice for a shot to do what you did last night. It doesn't matter how much money you make if you can't earn your peers respect and the respect and love of the greatest sporting fans in the world. We have no scripts in this sport, no pre-determined earning amount and no pre-determined outcomes. It doesn't matter if you win or loose it matters how you win or loose.
Every autograph I give, every hand I shake I am thankful that you give me the opportunity to be a part of your world. This is the greatest sport int he world and most of the athletes in it deserve the love and respect they get and some just dont get it.
From leaving the venue all the way to the Airport I have had fans of the sport ask me to take out Brock Lesnar for them. The thing is I have a very tough fight ahead of me that IMO is every bit as tough and talented as Brock. Cain is no joke and he may have had a tough fight against Kongo but I got rocked against Gonzaga. Fact is we are at the top of the HWT division and anyone we fight moving forward is going to be a real test. Cain is nothing short of a super athlete with amazing wrestling and he trains with one of the best camps in the country. I am sure Joe Silva told Cain the same thing he told us, winner gets the title shot. Cain is not looking past me he is looking right at me as the person that is in his way from potentially one of the greatest opportunities of his life and mine.
Wow, apparently you can be a top UFC heavyweight while still being a humble, down-to-earth guy. Who knew?
What's interesting about the challenge Carwin could offer Lesnar is that he's someone who is just as big, just as strong, and just as athletic, while also having the same basic skill-set as a wrestler who hits hard. In other words, he could be the perfect test to determine whether Lesnar is really winning based purely on genetics and wrestling ability, or whether it's something more.
But, as Carwin points out, he's still got to get past Cain Velazquez, who he seems to have genuine respect for as a fellow fighter. How 'bout that?

"Classy" Shane Carwin
That should be his nickname.
eelcozy Says:
I can't believe how disliked Brock Lesnar is, it's kind of amazing. You think he could pull his head out of his own ass and be respectful. He's like horribly strong giant baby.
hotsaucemonster Says:
"loose"? really?
Gamecock Says:
They were booing the hell out of him. I woulda flipped em off too.
Kicker of Elves Says:
"win or loose"
Casa de los pan... Says:
People love to hate the best. Brock is going to be whipping alot of ass in the future to come.
portland mma Says:
I just became an even bigger Carwin fan, a figher that gets it...its refreshing. Really looking forward to Shane and Cain and the winner embarassing Brock.
Poopchute Boxing Says:
Carwin would get owned in a fight with Brock. Brock is a much bigger and better skilled wrestler than Carwin. If this fight happens im calling Brock by Douchefists in the 2nd round. I do think this match would be a snoozer though, alotta lay n pray.
NomadRip Says:
Good words. Zuffa has done much to differentiate the UFC from the WWE. Lesnar just un-did a lot of that with his antics last night. He's no champion so far. He's just a big dude that can overpower a lot of other people right now. We'll see if that changes, but he's still just a guy with a big cock on his chest for now.
hows taste my p... Says:
Shane, you are going to get KTFO by Brock soon enough...be patient and work on your sprawl.
His antics were over the top, but I don't see anyone beating him anytime soon.
Sneaky Pete Says:
Carwin 'The Engineer' will Knock 'Lunchbox' Lesnar out cold.
Weee! Can't wait.
HAL_13 Says:
SHANE CARWIN WOULD GET SMASHED BY BROCK LESNAR PLAIN AND SIMPLE. AS LONG AS BROCK KEEPS TRAINING, AND LEARNING AT THE RATE HE IS GOING TODAY THEN I REALLY DON'T SEE ANYONE BEATING HIM ANYTIME SOON. YES HE CAN BE BEAT, AND WE ALL KNOW THAT BUT I JUST DON'T SEE IT HAPPENING FOR A LONG TIME TO COME. I DO AGREE THAT HE REALLY NEEDS TO STOP BEING SUCH AN DUMB ASSHOLE, AND HE DOES NEED TO GROW UP ALOT. I AM A HUGE BROCK LESNAR NUT HUGGER BUT THE MOTHER FUCKER REALLY NEEDS TO GROW UP. IF HE CAN DO THAT THEN HE WILL BE THE FACE OF THE UFC AS WAS CHUCK LIDDELL FOR MANY YEARS.
HAL_13 Says:
13TH AGAIN.
b2tharad Says:
shane "the can eater" carwin. lesnar has had tougher competition in his 1st 4 fights than carwin has had period.
Fucklord Says:
Shane "High Horse" Carwin
AkilleeZ Says:
I really hope Fedor is signed soon. I want someone to kick Lesnar's ass. And the UFC's heavyweight division is pretty pathetic. Nogueira might stand a chance...but based on his loss to Mir he looks like he is over the hill.
Lets get Arlovski back in the UFC.
Gamecock Says:
Every sports needs a crazy guy. I didn't like Lesnar before but I do now. I like him for the same reason I liked Dennis Rodman. He was a great player and was batshit crazy.
AkilleeZ Says:
@ Gamecock...thats what War Machine is for!
Justin Says:
If anybody in the UFC can beat Lesnar right now.....it's Carwin. That's an IF. I like both of them, but I think I'd put money on Carwin.
Fedor Says:
Hal I'm sorry but Carwin is going to SMASH bitchass ass Chestner! He's just as strong and athletic as Cock Chestner so he won't be able to just lay his fatass on Carwin like he does to everyone else
Nikloai Says:
And here we see Shane struggling to understand the intricacies of Lesnar's ability to draw large crowds
i don't see why lesnar should follow shane's belief/value system of "earning respect" through his personality. I thought we were watching MMA, not some fucking reality tv show
I have respect for lesnar, he doesn't get caught up with what others think of him, he does his own thing. And if someone like frank comes a long and talks a ton of shit about him, he's gonna react (and then all of a sudden lesnar is the bad guy)
HAL_13 Says:
MAYBE ONE DAY LESNAR AND I WILL GET TO PROVE YOU WRONG (AGAIN). MIR IS NO SLOUCH AND SIMPLY GOT MAN HANDLED BY LESNAR AS IF IT WAS NOTHING. CARWIN WILL NEED AN IMPRESSIVE WIN OR 2 MORE TO CONVINCE ME THAT HE IS ABLE TO BEAT LESNAR AS EASILY AS YOU, AND SEVERAL OTHERS SAY HE CAN. NO I TAKE THAT BACK. HE WILL HAVE TO ACTUALLY DO IT BEFORE I BELIEVE IT. I THINK THAT CARWIN SHOULD FIGHT FRANK MIR NEXT, AND THEN THE WINNER OF THAT FIGHT SHOULD GET THE NEXT SHOT AT LESNAR. LORD KNOWS IT WILL NOT BE FEDOR NEXT CAUSE HE'S TO BIG OF A FUCKING COWARD TO SIGN, AND FIGHT A REAL HEAVYWEIGHT FROM THE UFC.
Nikloai Says:
He's laughing at herring b/c
heath was badmouthing lesnar to dana white before their fight, saying he should be fighting top talent not up and comers with no talent. and like the true gentleman dana is, dana told brock right before he went to the cage
again, it was retaliation
and what, so you paid money, that entitles you to boo a guy like crazy and there just suppose to stand there like a fucking idiot?
Cuntalope Says:
Shane "Krazee Eyes" Carwin..."How you going to flip off the great fans, mutha fucka, how you going to flip off the great fans, you aint got no etiquette mutha fucka."
reddog Says:
Ha, I thought of a high horse too. Carwin actually sounds like a tool in this post.
"just as big, just as strong, and just as athletic"
Do any of you actually believe this, whichever Ben wrote it?
you must be talking about someone else. while carwin is up there, he is only 259, not 295. BIG difference. And no way he is as strong. Just as athletic? maybe, i dont have stats for that. and i havent seen them training. so...maybe one out of three of those is true. He also is no way the same class of wrestler. Carwin could not have pulled off the open headlock cradle Brock did.
beanball Says:
The great fans of the UFC booed Lesnar for beating their hometown hero. Mir is from Las Vegas. They booed him the instant he had won.
They didn't even give Lesnar a chance to act "classy" before writing him off as a tool.
The thing I don't get the most is how Mir isn't coming off as more of a tool. The guy talked just as much trash as Lesnar did and couldn't even come through. He layed on his back for almost 2 rounds and got punched in the face. Lesnar may be a tool, but at least he does what he says he's going to do. I have more respect for someone like that than a big fat guy with a horrible hair cut that runs his mouth.
TheSoftMachine Says:
I don't like Brock Lesnar but I don't think Shane Carwin can beat him. Sure, he's as big and strong as Lesnar, but gets hit really easy, and Lesnar has more power than Gonzaga, Wellisch or whoever he's fought before. Also, he doesn't seem as quick on his feet as that goddamn gorilla. Cain Velasquez could be a better choice, IMHO, but he need to work on his striking and focus on the GnP, but since he's with AKA and considering he is gonna face Carwin, I think we're gonna see a better Cain.
Cro Cop? Great fighter, but he's over the hill. I think Big Nog could be a better choice to fight Lesnar, if his awful fight against Mir was just because illness or injury. Cheick Kongo would get smoked... What about Randy? He's the master of upsets and he is still learning -despite being like a hundred years old-, so I think a second fight could be a great one and give us another Natural Moment.
JTho Says:
Puh-lease. If Lesnar fights Carwin -- we all know what's going to happen. More of the same, GnP.
If you Brock haters are so sure he'll lose, why don't we put a friendly, internet, wager on it? (That is, of course, assuming the fight actually happens.)
Cuntalope Says:
Carwin is such a fake faggot. Lesnar is a moron but at least he keeps it real and says what he wants. The fans booed him and he reacted, big deal, I thought it was pretty funny. If he just flipped them off for no reason than yeah he's a dick but the fans started shit and got shit back, all fair.
Also Lesnar has a ton of fans, even the people who love to hate him will be buying the ppv's he's on. Carwin has to do bitch moves like this and try and capitalise on things Lesnar does to try and get new fans ahahaha what a bitch.
Keep running your mouth Carwin and being a bitch, because Lesnar is going to sock you in that mouth and rape your soul.
And word to the wise, might be best to spend less time on the internet and twitter and perhaps try training. Or do you know deep down that no matter what you do Lesnar has your number and you're going to get destroyed either way and have given up on training. What a giant cocksucker you are.

@ JTho
I'll bet all the Space Cash you want...
elmattador Says:
In other news, Shane Carwin doesn't fucking get it.
Chri534. Says:
@Cuntalope
I'm guessing you're a big angry moron wrestler like he is. If Lesnar acts so immaturely, how can you expect that the fans will react in any different manner? This sport is supposed to be about respect above all else.
spladle Says:
Well said cunta! fuck all the brock haters. Shane will go to sleep when brock "lays on him" too. This is a carwin advertisement to know-nothings and females. Aka his fans.
spladle Says:
btw lesnar's jiu jitzu looked better then mir's. yeah i said it.
Chri534. Says:
What jiu jitsu did you see displayed by Brock?
Cock Chestner Says:
thats not too bad.. then you could also say Shane 'Classy' Carwin, which seems to have a decent ring to it.
Nikloai Says:
the fans can cheer or boo fighters as they wish, I just find it ridiculous when people start telling the fighters how they should or shouldn't act
lol, and no brock doesn't have any jiu jitsu, but he did a real good job neutralizing mir's jiu jitsu
LukeTheDuke Says:
Cain/Shane are the probably my top 2 UFC HWs
Shane, as the man who started your nickname contest, I apologize for any sort of discontent it caused you. You're a class act.
-LtD
Savageleto Says:
Pffsh..
Shane will beat Brock...
And he will do it with a punch... or a nice heel kick to the head.
Trust me when I tell you...Lesnar's weak spot is his chin... and Carwin will have the heaviest hands he has ever faced.
I know many of you do not want to see your man meat fantasies that Brock invokes in your loins to be shattered... but they will.
And Shane Carwin will do it.
10 billion internet bucks on it.
Juice Says:
@beanball
I totally support this.
Bloodlust Says:
There's no way Carwin is atheltic as Lesnar. I would say Carwin's got a puncher's chance against him but if it becomes a wrestling match Brock will dominate him.
ihateemo Says:
"Lets get Arlovski back in the UFC."
Indeed, and have him bring a broom so that they can sweep up his glass jaw after the fight.
Lesnar's antics last night were pretty pathetic. Obviously he was caught up in the moment - dissing the sponsors and talking about fucking his wife are one thing (and I admit, I thought it was funny), but flipping off the crowd is another one entirely. It's not pro-wrestling where people love to see villains for entertainment; 99% of fighters leave it in the cage, win or lose. Even Serra and Hughes got it out of their system, so why can't Lesnar? He really is an overgrown child.
I was very disappointed with Mir and for Mir last night too. I wonder how much they drilled him dealing with a giant sack of potatoes wielding polo mallets for fists and laying on top of him. I hope to see him come back stronger and better - Mir needs two or three wins in a consistent and convincing fashion, then we can see the rubber match. Couture and Liddell did it three times - so did Shamrock and Ortiz. So why not Mir vs. Lesnar III? I know for a fact Frank will want another crack at him just to prove a point.
/essay over
ihateemo Says:
Oh, and isn't Carwin an engineer? I'd have thought his spelling would be better. (Awesome dude though.)
Dubbayoo Says:
Work that twitter Shane. It's all about the matchmaking. Carwin keeps on winning, a loss puts you down a rung and puts someone else up a rung. Gonzaga goes down a rung. Couture goes down a rung, Mir goes down run...today. Carwin's turn to fight for the title. Every fight done in the within the first half of the first round. Does he really need to do the same to Mur, Cohtoorre, Nogerra and BJ Penn to prove that he was the top contender all along? No. And he hasn't disgraced MMA yet. Just minds his business, flatlines you in seconds... not minutes, or rounds. Lesnar vs Carwin. In the Mandalay parking lot bitches!
HAL_13 Says:
I'D SAY THAT MIR WANTS NOTHING ELSE TO DO WITH LESNAR FROM NOW ON. HE HAS TO REALIZE THAT HE SIMPLY CAN'T BEAT LESNAR ANYMORE. MIRS TALK OF HIM BEATING LESNAR 99 OUT OF 100 TIMES IS MORE THEN LIKELY OUT OF HIS THOUGHTS AT THIS POINT. I'D SAY HE REALLY FEELS LIKE SHIT RIGHT ABOUT NOW FOR TALKING ALL THAT SMACK ABOUT LESNAR, AND HIM AND HIS LITTLE BUDDY FUCKING AROUND MAKING FUN OF LESNAR BEING FROM WWE IN THAT EPISODE ON TV THE OTHER DAY, AND NOT BEING ABLE TO EVEN COME CLOSE TO BACKING IT UP. THATS JUST FREAKISHLY FUCKING FUNNY. MIR WILL BE LICKING HIS SCARS FOR A VERY LONG TIME ON THIS ONE. IT'S PLAIN AND SIMPLE FUCKING FUNNY AS IT GETS.
Lysol Says:
Why is Lesnar so pissed? You would be angry too if you had a gigantic cock on your chest.
Biffmiester Says:
Carwin or Velasquez are not ready for the beast Lesnar... they'd get manhandled. As for Mir, I think his next match should be against Kongo or Gonzaga. Something to that extent. But, the heavyweight division's is Brock's for a while to come (unless UFC picks up Fedor... then let hypemania begin!).
