Shane Carwin confirmed what most us already knew. In a one-sided beatdown, he ate a lot of punches from Junior dos Santos at UFC 131.The scary part is Carwin says he doesn't recall parts of the fight.
"I have had a lot of time to reflect on the fight, and while I have not seen it and due to the damage I incurred, I can't recall much of the fight. What I do know is this I am a guy learning how to fight at the elite level," Carwin wrote on his blog. "My heart can't be questioned, I think I showed that I have the cardio to fight at this level and I just need to work on my technique."
Carwin said he knew he was in trouble early in the fight.
"As the fight started, I just did not feel like myself," Carwin said. "I wasn't able to get my feet moving and Junior capitalized quickly. As he was pummeling me I kept trying to find a way to defend myself so [referee Herb Dean] would not stop the fight. Junior was landing solid shots and that is where probably he broke my nose."
Carwin did all he could to make it through the final round and take the fight to a decision.
"After the second round I knew I was in trouble. My nose made it impossible to breathe, my eyes were full of blood and Junior was still coming at me."
