Who can beat Brock Lesnar? Read first!?

I've got my money on Carwin in UFC 106, but I can't help but wonder: What if he doesn't do that? Who would beat Brock then?

Fedor is supposed to be the best MMA fighter at the moment, but he won't be fighting Brock anytime soon it seems. So again, who can humble the Big Bad Brock/Brock "The C0ck" Lesnar? lol

I'd appreciate if you back up your statements with some stats or records etc.

Update:

---I'm a man

Thanks for your answer, but that's not the question I asked.

In my view, Brock has only been dominant because of his weight advantage, which he won't have against Carwin. His match against Herring was a let down. He threw what I believe the most powerful punch he could throw, and it still didn't KO him. Later, you see him panting with his arms hanging down, lifeless, and even the commentator mentioned that. Carwin, on the contrary, knocked out Gonzaga with his own version of "Phantom Punch".

Brock has been fast though, I admit, and I'm not saying he won't win. I just think Carwin has better chances.

Update 2:

---by I'm a man

Truth be told, I'm not sure. I got into MMA just recently (when Brock joined UFC). I don't think it's impossible for Lesnar to knock him out. He has the power, and all he needs is a little accuracy. I also don't think either of them would manhandle the other. It would probably end up in a TKO after a long fought battle on the ground (Which, for me, Carwin has more chances of scoring).

You, sir, have earned the best answer.

    I defenitly agree that Brock has been dominant mostly because of his weight advantage. I'm not saying that he can't fight, because he can! I think Carwin can beat him though. Like you said, Brock won't have his size advantage, and also, Shane Carwin has a lot of wrestling experience as well. I think if Shane can land one of his trademark punches on Lesnar, it's over. I really want to see how well he can wrestle though. Anyways, it should be an exciting fight.

    Other than Carwin, I think Noguera has a good shot. He has been doing this for a long time and is pretty well-rounded. I'm pretty sure if he didn't beat Lesnar, he would for sure put up an excellent fight. This is likely to happen sometime, since Noguera just beat Randy Couture not too long ago.

    I'm not even going to bother about Fedor. Everything that could be said about this fight has already been said lol. I do think that he could beat Lesnar, though. Due to his tons of experience. Have you seen his fight against Hong Man Choi? Yes, Fedor defenitly knows how to take on a much bigger opponent. I would love to see how he would handle with Brock Lesnar.

    How about Bobby Lashley? Yeah he's not in the UFC right now, but sooner or later he will be, I'm sure. Obviously, he has great wrestling skill and (like Brock) is very big in size. He also holds a professional MMA record of 4-0 right now. I think this would be a good one. I think anyone who Brock won't have a massive size advantage over would be a good fight. This one would be a great showcase of wrestling skill. Two huge guys going at it!

    Those are the guys I think would give Lesnar a definite run for his money!!

    Shane Carwin has proven himself less than Brock Lesnar, as hard as that is to believe. He has 1 good win over Gonzaga but Brocks last 3 wins were against better competition than Gonzaga (Mir, Couture, Herring) Carwin has never faced anyone as fast, strong, and as solid of a wrestler as Brock Lesnar. I wouldn't take that bet with Carwin.

    yeah, I respect that opinion although I feel otherwise. Well to answer your question I think Fedor could beat Brock. Yet I also believe Brock could beat Fedor. I would love to see this fight.

    are you betting on Carwin to win straight up? or that Lesnar won't knock him out? or what?
