As far as Carwin goes he made a classic mistake in going for the stoppage rather than pick his shots and he gassed. As far as Cain goes I don't think Brock will stand with him at all and probably look for the takedown right away. Cain is too small for Brock and his striking is not as dynamic or powerful as Carwin's. As for Fedor, Overeem, and Werdum it's a toss up. These match ups are all about style I think if the fight goes to the ground Werdum can beat anyone, but standing its a different story. Overeem can take anyone standing, but the other two would probably take him on the ground. Fedor can beat anyone anywhere, but like Liddell he got caught being overly aggressive. Out of those 3 I say any of them can beat Lesnar, although I would say Overeem and Fedor have the best chances. Werdum would have to get the right moment and Lesnar might not give it to him. Fedor and Overeem can hang on the ground and take him standing. Of course that is not saying Brock can't demolish either anything is possible in MMA.

There are a lot of guys who think he got caught and he's still the best in the world. That's one of things that will have to be settled in the coming months. You’re not alone in that.
