OK, so maybe that’s not exactly how Brock Lesnar‘s team drew it up. Odds are they didn’t plan to have their fighter take a beating for the entire first round just to tire Shane Carwin out. If they did, Lesnar should fire his trainers and hire people with a little more regard for keeping his blood on the inside of his body.
But despite the rough start at UFC 116 on Saturday night, Lesnar showed a lot of grit in lasting through the early trouble to submit Carwin with a second-round arm triangle to retain the UFC heavyweight championship.
Beyond just providing a frantic few minutes worth of entertainment, the fight also gave us the chance to learn a little bit more about the man who may be one of the best fighters we’ve seen the least of in the cage. Below, five of the most valuable lessons gleaned from Lesnar’s latest title defense.

After the start that Shane Carwin got off to at UFC 116 on Saturday night, it almost didn’t seem possible for him to lose. He had Brock Lesnar bloodied and hurt, cowering against the fence with his arms covering his face as Carwin kept the punches coming in a steady stream.
Then the stream slowed, and finally came to a stop. When it did, Carwin started to seem as though he’d spent everything he had for a finish that didn’t materialize.
“When I had him in trouble the ref keep saying he was going to stop it and then towards the end of the 1st my body began to seize up,” Carwin wrote on his official website. “In between rounds I could not move my legs and had what felt like a whole body cramp. My cardio was fine but my body was not. What can you do? You have to stand up and face your opponent.”

Brock Lesnar already has a date with Cain Velasquez — potentially at UFC 119 in September — but the fates of all the other winners and losers from Saturday night are still up in the air. So let’s run down a few of the notables and try to determine who they should take on next. You’re really gonna have to start paying us, Joe.
Shane Carwin: Word on the street is that the winner of Junior Dos Santos vs. Roy Nelson at UFC 117 will receive the next heavyweight title shot after Velasquez, which means the loser could be a good opponent for Carwin’s return fight. Cigano and Big Country are both skilled enough to drag Carwin into round 2, where he’ll either crumble again, or prove to everyone that cardio is not his achilles heel.
Chris Leben: He called out Wanderlei Silva following his unbelievable submission victory over Yoshihiro Akiyama, and the Axe Murderer is down with it. Seems like a no-brainer to us. Who wouldn’t want to see two of the UFC’s most beloved brawlers beat the stuffing out of each other? Dana White says he wants to have Leben fight again soon rather than have him sit out the rest of the year while Silva’s knee heals up. But after two fights in two weeks (and $100,000 in bonus money), we think Leben could use a nice vacation.

This week’s episode of the MMA Wrap-Up looks back on UFC 116 in an attempt to calm down a little bit after a fantastic night of fights and ask ourselves a very serious question: really, Brock Lesnar is now the world’s best heavyweight? The guy who has only six pro fights on his record? One of which was against Min Soo Kim? Really? Okay.
Since it does indeed appear to be the case that Lesnar occupies the top spot, and since that does seem a little weird to me, the next goal is to figure out why it should be any stranger for Lesnar to be #1 than it was for Fedor Emelianenko, who suddenly seems like a puppy that the MMA world loved intensely until he chewed their shoes and was summarily stuck in the backyard and then forgotten about it. I promise this analogy did not make it into the video.
Check out this week’s episode below to see which flawed attempts at logic and humor did find their way to the internet.
