This is an interesting little situation here
because Carwin has to kind of pace himself.

that big man has reversed the position, Joe, and
now it's Lesnar, as Marty Morgan talked about, on top of Shane Carwin.

Now watch him hop out of it,
and right in, squeezes it tight.
As soon as he started turning the corner, see how he's turning there?
That's when he tightened it up.
Before that, Shane had a little bit of air,
but as soon as he started turning that corner,
he just locked it up tight, and that's it.
And he has battled through so many things the last year.
Ladies and gentlemen, referee Josh Rosenthal is called to stop
for this contest at two minutes, 19 seconds of round number two.
