Carwin's boxing is only better because he uses that more these days than his wrestling.  Now carwin started out as a wrestler but these quick-powerful wrestlers that primarily do wrestling (like randleman) never make it in the UFC so he switched to become a sprawl and brawl type of fighter that uses wrestling only defensively.  If brock can take him down, he'll win the fight I guarantee.             

Anyway, 20 lbs will be more than enough to give brock an edge.  Ever fought someone bigger?  It's hard, and it will be more than enough for brock to tire Carwin out and take carwin into the later rounds to hopefully punch him through the canvas.                                                                      

Randleman was ufc champ, how do you get of saying he did not make it.

And unliek all of you just talking iv actually  fought in the ring, and a les then 10% differancein weight means nothing.  Height and reach are far bigger advantages/disadvantages.   

Sorry, but randleman sucked.  He had a 17-15 record.  That isn't exactly good.......He's lost to light-heavyweights,  fighters like sakuraba that weighed 170 lbs (he'd be a welter-weight in the UFC), the list goes on I'm afraid. Most opponents fighting randleman realized that if they lasted longer than 3-4 minutes then they'd have a pretty good chance of winning.  Now randleman took a lot of roids and buffed up like crazy, he's been doing that since high school.  But too many roids and whatever kills your cardio which is  why randleman was never that big of a story.

 

And, Hus, weight matters a lot.  Look at all of the fighters that move up a weight class to fight somebody only 15lbs which actually is less than 10% with the UFC their min weight is 155; Now these fighters that move up and fight a larger opponent usually lose. 

 

Either way hus, enjoy the fight Saturday.
