Should the fight have been stopped?
While most people agree, the ref for the Brock Lesnar vs. Shane Carwin fight, Josh Rosenthal, did an excellent job in not stopping the fight too early, some people still disagree. Some may argue that given that this fight has been hyped and talked about for so long, that the ref was 'encouraged' to keep the fight going, while in a lesser scrutinized fight it would have been stopped. However, to the ref's credit, Brock covered up very quickly after getting hit repeatedly and covered well on the ground. Yes, for much of the time in round 1 spent on the ground, Brock wasn't gaining any position or escape, but after the initial barrage of punches, it didn't look like the later punches were doing anywhere as much damage.
