November 15, 2008, Brock Lesnar won the UFC World Weight Championship dethroning Randy Couture by the technical knockout route in the second assault in UFC 91. He would do the same and at the same time of the fight with Frank Mir to defend for the first time the title on July 11, 2009 in UFC 100. “The Beast Incarnate” would only make one more defense before falling at the hands of Cain Velásquez in the first assault on Tko on October 23, 2010 121.
► Shane Carwin tried to “kill” Brock Lesnar
At this third and last time defending the belt we leave now. He went against Shane Carwin on July 3, 2010 at UFC 116 and Lesnar won the victory for surrender in the second assault. Carwin was the interim champion – providing that the WWE icon was also absent from health problems – and Brock unified the two scepters.
Brock Lesnar's forgotten debut in the MMA before UFC
Shane Carwin completely dominated the first assault, so much that he had no strength for the second and then Brock Lesnar came out with his. Precisely the story that concerns us is this, how Carwin tried to “kill” Lesnar during those first five minutes and fell into the following, as he remembered a while ago in SiriusXM:
“My body simply began to go out. Basically I was just waiting for him to die, and he didn't die. So, you know, I spent all my energy and everything I had trying to end him in the first assault.
I just remember that my body slowed down, and I think I was simply trying to recover oxygen. I went back to my corner and told my coach: 'Yes, I have no legs.'
Of course, he did his job trying to encourage me, but There is no way to cheat when you are sitting there and you know what is happening.”
This would also be Brock Lesnar's last victory As a fighter of MMA since he would later lose with Velásquez, later before Alistair Overeem for Technical knockout on December 30, 2011 at UFC 141 and finally his victory over Mark Hunt by decision on July 9, 2016 in UFC 200 would be reversed to “without result” by giving positive by doping.
