Raj Giri: Speaking of Lesnar's recent comments, he recently also said that he considers you 1-0 because he feels that Gabriel Gonzaga is the only real fighter you've faced. Yet Lesnar was really only 1-1 (not counting his win over Min-Soo Kim) when he received a UFC title shot. What do you think about Lesnar's comments?

Shane Carwin: I totally agree that Gabe is an elite fighter. I, however, do not have the ability to dictate who I fight or when. I am not a WWE superstar who sells millions of pay-per-views. I am just a fighter who trains hard and is finally getting his shot at the title. I do not feel as if I have been handed anything. I consider Brock a tough fight and I look forward to having my hand raised that night.

Make sure to check back tomorrow for part two of Carwin's interview, where he talks about the bad blood between he and Lesnar, their similarities, his comments and feelings towards Fedor Emelianenko, who he feels would win a bout between Fedor and Lesnar and more.
