OMG, do you people want Baruto to die?  I mean, I honestly think that be a slaughter.  Baruto, can barely throw a punch.  He lucky he so dam big.  Carwin would murder him, honestly it should not even be sanctioned, that how bad of a mismatch it is.

It's Japanese MMA, why wouldn't there be a horrible mismatch that shouldn't be sanctioned?

i don't get why most people want that fight at all

I want the most competitive fights possible. and that would be Baruto/Amir. Which is a very logical an interesting matchup. Baruto/Carwin makes no sense unless it's the Final/Semi-final.

If he's in shape and hasn't lost it I think he has what it takes to win the tourney. One of the hardest hitters in MMA history. 

If you weren't already pumped for the NYE card get pumped, Carwin's going to murder someone.

Shane Carwin was my first favourite fighter 8 years ago when I started watching MMA. Bless his soul.
