Better than ever? HA! Brock was rocked beyond comprehension in the First Round. He was given a gift by not having that fight stopped. Carwin beat himself because of horrible cardio. That arm triangle wasn't even that tight.

I know it goes back to the gladiators and beyond, but I just don’t see the attraction of watching people fight in such a brutal way. I wish Brock’s NFL career would have happened.

Doesn't surprise me. I sucked at it, but wrestled in high school. Boxers/hitters rely on their legs/footwork for power, but the wrestler is shooting underneath for their legs, away from their power, which takes away their power. They must always be worried the wrestler will get them that way.

And it would always surprise me that someone could shoot underneath that fast and get to my legs, it's the blink of an eye for a good wrestler. Nearly as fast as throwing a punch. Come up underneath, and then, the easy downward pull on the opponent's leg, and he's flipped on his back. It's very fast for a good wrestler.
