I think that Carwin vs. JDS was the fight that should have happened anyway. Lesnar came off of a narrow victory against Carwin to retain his belt. Both men were champions at the same time and Carwin was one thunder fist away from putting Lesnar into a very real very confusing state of sleep. Not one person watching that fight could have said that Lesnar won hands down. Carwin took a 10-8 or 10-7 round against Lesnar and won every second of that fight except the last 10. I`m not trying to take credit from Brock in that fight. It was an amazing dispay of heart and in the end he won and deservedly so had his hand raised in the end. However he was not the undisputed champion.The dispute came in the form of Carwin dominating him and a rematch was and still is in order if Lesnar is going to remain in title contention. Velasquez is the undisputed champion because he won the fight from start to finish. There was no question in the end that he bested the former champion for the entire round. JDS has earned his title shot, and Carwin hasn`t lost his place among the top. The two of them are deseevedly fighting fand the winner will be the undisputed contender.or a title shot

Brock will never hold the belt in my honest opinion if he has to face Carwin/JDS/Cain. I was getting flack for my opinion awhile back about Brocks resume being mediocre and once he faced Carwin he'd lose. If Carwin didn't gas he would have lost but I gave Brock props...we can't say if so and so had a full gas tank or if they landed one more clean punch it would have been over. Because we could do this to countless fights that have happened in the past.
Carwin/JDS is a fight I'm anticipated for.

Carwin could have taken a 10-0 round, but it wouldn't matter because Brock finished him. Carwin was stopped and Brock walked away the winner.

While we may see fighters who "deserve" a title shot get shafted over someone who's perhaps dosen't, it's because the UFC is looking at it in a business sense. Otherwise Jon Fitch would possibly be fighting for the title again by now.
Dana likes guys who win but he'd rather you fight with all your might (basically put on an exciting preformance) and lose then lay and pray (or dance) to a victory.

I can understand it but I don't agree with it.

@bodymodifier i like good grappling as much as stand up but jon fitch just blankets.......going for subs,improving positions and trying to finish on the ground are all things i appreciate but doing next to nothing and aiming for a decision is something i dont.....

So I try to not to be so vocal about him. I do however think he's deserving since he's stringed wins together.

I'm not saying woulda and coulda. If Brock beat JDS hes still getting dummied by Cain. If Carwin beats JDS he's also getting beat by Cain but sooner. Brock finished him yes but I think Carwin also deserves a rematch against Brock. Let's face it the UFC heavy weight division has the same problem as Strike Force's middle weight division. Its a small circle of talent that can sell a ppv. The top 4 are the only fighters anyone wants to see a title match for in the next year or so. We've seen Brock vs. Cain and it was a one sided beating. We've also seen Brock vs. Carwin which was one sided and one sided. If Lesnar beat Cain in the same fashion as he beat Carwin I would say rematch. If Lesnar beat Cain in the same fashion Cain beat him I would say Carwin JDS for contenders. But with Lesnar's lopsided loss to Cain I think he needs 2 wins to have his next shot. It is just money and thats understandable its business but business and logic almost never go hand in hand.
