Lesnar, considered as UFC’s biggest pay-per-view star, has won his first fight in a year. It was a bit unexpected, since he seemed the weaker in the opening minutes compared to the previously undefeated interim champion, Shane Carwin.
But in the second round, Lesnar took down Carwin and got him in an arm triangle choke. “I knew he was getting tired. Each shot was less dramatic than the other . . . I stand before you a humble champion, and I’m still the toughest (guy) around,” Lesnar said.
Lesnar previously canceled two bouts with Carwin because he developed an intestinal illness–a disease which almost killed him.
