After Brock Lesnar emerged victorious at UFC 116, many people wondered whether or not the heavyweight champion could be beaten. With the image of Lesnar securing an arm triangle choke against the man viewed as his closest rival fresh in their minds, fans and critics alike speculated that perhaps Lesnar had no equal; that the ever-improving athletic specimen would reign supreme for the foreseeable future.

The man who shared the spotlight with the undisputed champion last Saturday would like to offer an answer to the question Who – if anyone – can beat Brock Lesnar?

That is an easy question to answer – I am the guy that can beat Brock Lesnar, Shane Carwin stated, adding an analogy to the current champion’s initial encounter inside the Octagon to bolster his belief.

This is not a lot different than his first fight with Mir when he was pretty dominant and got caught. I had my body fail me, but I know I can win that fight if I ever get a second chance. Brock has the heart of a champion and he won’t break or quit easily. But everyone can be beaten.
