The following is an excerpt from an interview with Shane Carwin from FightLine.com:

Raj Giri: You've caught some flack from the internet community for your comments directed to Fedor Emelianenko, saying that he has been fed opponents. Do you feel that's why he didn't sign with the UFC? What are your overall thoughts on Fedor?

Shane Carwin: I didn't say that Fedor was fed opponents. What I said was his handlers are putting him in risky situations. You would be hard pressed to find any MMA fighter that would not have Fedor as their number 1 or 2 best fighters EVER in MMA. When you put the best fighter in the world on shows that draw a lot less then the UFC, you risk the legacy that Fedor has built if and when he loses. We are all beatable and sometimes you can have clearly won and still lost on the judges scorecard. It's not too different then putting Hagler in with Sugar Ray, it wasn't like Sugar Ray could have finished Hagler and the risk was the guy with all the hype could dazzle the crowd and get the win. I am not disrespecting Fedor, I am just saying the elite heavyweights are in the UFC.

My comments were in response to Strikeforce's comments that the UFC does not have any good heavyweights. Guys like Brock, Nog, Couture, Mir, Dos Santos and Kongo says they are incorrect in those statements.

Raj Giri: While we're talking about Fedor, one fight that Dana White was trying to make was Fedor vs. Lesnar, before Fedor ended up signing with Strikeforce. How do you think a fight between the two would have went?

Shane Carwin: I think that Fedor would beat Brock.

Yeah, right, because you can beat Fedor, can't you Shane? Which means you can beat Brock, right?

Just kidding, I know you'd smash Brock. Don't dissapoint me, now!

Carwin does seem to be a good guy with both his feet on the ground. I would rather go on a roadtrip with Carwin then Fedor or Brock. As a matter of fact i wouldnt go on a roadtrip with brock ven if they payed me, sounds incredibly boring.
