Shane Carwin Responds To Frank Mir’s Comments About Wanting To Kill Brock Lesnar.

Shane Carwin ii

Despite a tight lipped approach “suggested” by UFC president Dana White, UFC heavyweight number one contender Shane Carwin recently commented on fellow heavyweight Frank Mir’s comments about “wanting to kill Brock Lesnar in the ring.”





“I can tell you that ANY athlete wishing death upon a competitor is either a terrible human being or mentally unfit to fight,” Carwin told the U.K.’s MMABay. “That type of talk and if it ever happened will take this sport backwards. Frank has been a part of the stone ages of MMA and it makes no sense why he would want or make comments that might damage a lot of the good HE has participated in adding to this sport over the years.”

While Mir’s comments were certainly harsh, Lesnar himself has said in the past that he wanted to “murder” Mir before UFC 100. Could this be a case of a double standard in the UFC? Let us know what you think.

    Come on now! MMA News are you that out of touch with reality that you can compare a general statement ” I want to murder him” or “I want to punch my fist through his head” in the ring which is a general comment just like “kicking his ass” in the ring, he is not really going to kick him in the ass. Vs. describing how Mir wants to kill Brock in the cage and how he wants him to be the first death? You cannot see the drastic difference in clairity? You need help MMA News.

    It is a double standard. but i think its a case of to men full of emotion wanting to fight each other very badly, and the killing comments are just being blown out of proportion…think about it how many people a day say ” oh id kill that guy” or Dude you’re dead!” its a passing comment thats had little or no meaning to what they would actually want to happen.
