5 Greatest UFC Heavyweight Championship Fights

#4 Brock Lesnar (c) vs Shane Carwin (ic) - UFC 116

Say whatever you will about Brock Lesnar. Was he the very best in the Heavyweight division? Probably not. He was undeniably a box office draw, but he was also a natural freak athlete, and Lesnar in his prime was a wonder to watch.

He first defeated Interim Champion Frank Mir to unify the titles at UFC 100, and he would then have to face interim Champion Shane Carwin. Throughout the first round, Lesnar got absolutely dominated, with many moments looking as though he was going to lose. However, Lesnar would drastically turn things around, and by round 2, he managed to submit Carwin with an arm triangle choke. Lesnar had to dig deep for this victory.

It's incredible to think that any man could possibly take a beating like that and still come through. But then again, Brock Lesnar has proven that he is no ordinary human.
