This was A LOT closer than I thought. The first 3 rounds of this one were dead even. Then JDS sort of took an edge, then he busted that edge wide open and dominated for the next full round and a bit. Carwin is a TOUGH, TOUGH bastard, absorbing about 2-3xs what usually KOs a fella. Just kinda shows me that with some tweaks, Carwin could have a beefy career here. If tweaked slightly. #CampaignStopFighterNeglect

This was A LOT closer than I thought. The first 3 rounds of this one were dead even. Then JDS sort of took an edge, then he busted that edge wide open and dominated for the next full round and a bit. Carwin is a TOUGH, TOUGH bastard, absorbing about 2-3xs what usually KOs a fella. Just kinda shows me that with some tweaks, Carwin could have a beefy career here. If tweaked slightly. #CampaignStopFighterNeglect
