Shane Carwin's impressive performance against Frank Mir earns him a shot at Brock Lesnar.Shane Carwin still has never seen the second roundThe monstrous Coloradan smashed through Frank Mir in 3 minutes, 48 seconds to win the UFC interim heavyweight championship in the co-main event. Carwin, unbeaten as a professional, has finished all 12 of his opponents inside one round. His latest conquest puts him in position to challenge recovering UFC heavyweight king Brock Lesnar this summer.
"That fight's been canceled two times," Carwin said. "It's destiny that we meet."
Carwin wiped out Mir in the clinch, where he landed a series of left uppercuts against the cage that crumpled the former champion in his tracks. Mir fought valiantly to survive, but Carwin proved relentless in his pursuit of victory. He hammered Mir with heavy punches from behind until he lay prone and motionless, forcing the referee to intervene.
"It's a lifetime of work right here," Carwin said. "I'm speechless. I don't know what to say."
