just watch the fight and it look like couture took a dive. he took a big knee then about 6seconds later lesner unloaded on him but missed, then next thing you know coutures on the floor. so was he still fucked after the knee or did he take a dive??

Lesnar caught Randy with a punch it just didnt land clean, I think the wind of one of Lesnars punches would flatten most guys, his hands are like anvils, no way a dive imo.

Missed? Lesnar hit Couture behind the ear. That is one of the worst places to take a punch.

I have heard this nonsense before. I don't buy it. They are also saying that BJ took a dive against Edgar. I don't buy that bullshit neither.

I don't think they are as heavy as most people think, he hasn't KOed anyone yet, sure he has tko's but he hasn't laid anyone out yet no one punch ko's. I actually think they are weak for a man his size. Carwin on the otherhand he KO's people!

Carwin's boxing is much more refined.

Lesnar stopped his first opponent with short range shots.
He dropped Mir with a right hand before being subbed.
He dropped Herring with a right hand.
He dropped and stopped Couture with punches.
He completed busted Mir up with blows.

I think in every fight he has had he has shown heavy hands. His boxing simply isn't refined yet.

Carwin can let 5 left uppercuts go in a fight. Lesnar probably doesn't even practice that on the pads.

Well its pretty obvious BJ didnt take a dive considering he was still standing :yep

He still hasn't dropped anybody to end a fight. Pretty much anyfighter can/does that. Heavy hands means knock OUT power NOT knock DOWN power.

He isn't an out and out striker though. Every time he puts a right hand on them he turns it into GnP or wrestling. Plus he can do it early or late in a fight.

It is not easy to punch like Carwin does. Knocking people OUT is hard and can be rare.

couture wouldn't throw a fight imo. much more prestige to be champion than doing that, he's already made enough money.

I think there have been some high profile fixes, but this doesn't strike me as one. Couture has been hittin gthe deck every time he gets hit for a while now. A combination of Chuck and age ruined his chin.
