Brock Lesnar withstood the on-slaught of UFC's stoppage artist and bounced back with a triangle arm choke to push Shane Carwin to submission and defend his undisputed heavyweight title in UFC 116.

Brock Lesnar survived a bloddied face, and powerful pummeling from interim champion Shane Carwin in the first round. Carwin landed powerful punches but kinda tapered off a little in attack. Lesnar successfully held on to the end of the first round.

Carwin who has yet to made past first round (except today), and punch himself out is not the same in the second round. Lesnar capitilize and initiated a take down. After which, Lesnar was able to secure an arm triangle choke that led to Carwin's tap out.

Sidenotes:
Carwin is the favorite and has more fans inside the sold-out MGM Grand.
