Did JDS retire Shane Carwin?

[KrPlud]

Nope, not even close.

 

[Spycho]

LOL, no. JDS was saved by the bell.

LOL Carwin actually believes he almost won by that half assed choke in the last 2 seconds.He wrote it on Twitter like "yeah I finish people in training all the time like that" . lmfao. All those dudes trained by Whitman are delusional sore losers. Schaub has the same bug.

He shouldn't have quit. Now he's stuck working a 9-5 job which fucking sucks

Last I checked engineers make very good money. He could possibly be making more and doesn't have to damage his body anymore.

He NEVER stopped working as an Engineer.

Think so. Read a Buzzfeed with a bunch of old gifs redone with the same person.

 

[kuromusha]

I hope he does this when he's an old man.

They should have also included his signature at the end of the new one. Would have put it over the top. (I initially thought it was Colin Quinn spoofing the meme.)

He made it to the pinnacle of the sport (HW championship match) only to make $50,000. Not like he is going to retire of that.

I have a hard time believing carwin is retired for good. He is too talented and if he came back would be fighting for the belt in two fights. Cain's worst nightmare.

You sir are crazy cain would maul shane carwin. Nobody at hw has proven to have the gas tank to handle cains pace

This. A lot of people don't like to bring it up but he got was on a list of athletes that were buying steroids from a doctor. After coming into the fight against JDS much lighter (presumably from stopping use) and then getting badly beaten, he decided it was better to retire.

I loved watching the guy but he left under shady circumstances much like Wandy and Sonnen.

No. That's not why he came in lighter vs JDS.

It was because of how badly he gassed against Lesnar, so, he focused more on conditioning for that fight.

 

[ManyJudgesGuess]

Carwin's spine retired him not losing a decision.

 

[bluesnoopz]

LOL, no. JDS was saved by the bell.

omg not this again. :icon_lol:

 

[hhero]

Nah man making 16 k per fight retired him he went back to accounting

 

[Mikeyz]

omg not this again. :icon_lol:

I am assuming people are talking about that "choke" Carwin had on JDS towards the end of the 3rd? lol.

He made 40K each for his fights with Lesnar and JDS, plus I am assuming PPV profits from the Lesnar fight.
