Imagine if the roles were reversed, would brock say something like that to carwin? Hell no, he'd probably talk shit.
The brock hugging MMA newcomers from the WWE forums never cease to amaze me with their ignorance. If there is ONE decent thing about shitdog, it's that the few brock huggers get verbal beatdowns for acting so stupid.

It's nice, but it doesn't make up for the whole douchy "I'd fight sick if I were Brock" crap that he pulled earlier. I mean of course this is the kinda thing you'd expect from any human being not a complete turd. You don't make fun of a man who might be on his deathbed or near disability. Whatever his alleged flaws, he is a human being first.
What Carwin shouldn't have done is posted that stuff in the first place. Honestly, this guy's self-righteousness pisses me off, when he comes off as fake and publicity hungry more than compassionate. If he wanted to be compassionate, all it takes is one word of true apology in this blog, saying "Brock, sorry I misjudged your illness man, get well soon and lets do this thing." Nope no apologies, just more arrogant self-righteous, "I am a baby faced angel" crap.
All he ever does is berate fans and fighters for not measuring up to his standards ... well Mr. Carwin, what you did was bad too, jumping to conclusions about Brock and his illness and essentially calling him a ***** for something that might kill Brock or end his career. No, this hypocritical lecture will not make me like you more either, I think you've been a fake hero since the day you started calling out Brock like some kind of spoilt child trying to play kinight in shining armor. If you want to be a truly "good" guy fighter, learn some true humility and compassion from Fedor or GSP.
Oh and as for those people trying to justify Carwin's earlier comments as "trying to hype the fight", that is and always was a horrible excuse for personal attacks. Of course marketing idiots and all will tell you to do that kind of thing for cheap publicity... there is always a cheap and short term reason in life to take the low road. That doesn't justify it, no one is putting a gun to your head and making you do it ... the likes of Fedor/GSP/Anderson never talk shit about their opponents (well except for the whole Matt Hughes thing, but that was provoked), no matter what it does to "hype" their fights. In fact, they'll be the other extreme and actually praise their opponents skills, even when they know deep down that most of the fools they face don't stand a snowball's chance in hell. In the long run, people respect them even more, and their fights sell themselves. Look what Tito's repetitive "hyping" of fights got him ... the man is a joke now.

The title of this thread is so disappointing... you would think Carwin said Brock is faking or he hopes he dies... what is shocking about wishing him a recovery?? He should just keep his mouth shut and not try to gain popularity off Brock again, this time using his illness and his "nice guy" blogs to gain more fans... still exploiting Brock and the silly baby face, bully beating, disabled kid loving, all american hero...

Brock is only popular now because of the UFC hype train. Dana white wanted to bridge a gap between you WWE fans and MMA so he brought brock into the mix. He has no "fame" and no worthy MMA credentials. Carwin has been fighting MMA before brock even knew what it was.
Also, it was BROCK who started to talk trash first. I like how when carwin sticks up for himself hes all of the sudden the bad guy. Its a shame brock didnt abuse roids so much or else they would be fighting this weekend and we could finally put an end to this brock nuthugging fest.

Carwin only started training full time recently.... Brock was/is a better wrestler then him and only didnt come to MMA because there was no $ compared to WWE. I love ppl that think he didnt train whatsoever while with WWE tho... yea, he hasnt proved a thing by beating the Champion then the Interim Champion... but Carwin proved alot more getting taken down by a smaller guy, getting his nose smashed and landing a lucky punch....
Brock has barely said a thing about Carwin. Carwin blogs BS weekly. You figure it out.

It's not worth replying to him tbh mate. I was going to reply, but then read the phrase 'no worthy mma credentials' from a Carwin nuthugger and wrote the entire post off as inane drivel.

Don't get me wrong, it's a nice thing to say, but this is a case of "Do as I say, not as I do" and I don't really know what to think about Carwin.

I think what it comes down to is Shane Carwin understands how to seperate his job, from personal life. You think if Sean Sherk and BJ Penn met at a restaurant they'd hate eachother and shoot dirty looks? There's no reason for us to to diss sick fighters because we don't like their fight-persona. It'd be like if Rashad got sick, and people said "good, I hate the way he showboats during fights."
Hell I bet if Lesnar and Mir met at a walmart or something they'd share a few laughs. IMO this is Carwin trying to help the fans seperate reality from fiction so we can feel sympathy for the big guy.
