Re: Brock Lesnar vs Cain Velasquez predictions??

I didn't get to see the fight but it sounds like Cain brought the heat. Congrats to him. Gotta love MMA where everyone loses at some point. Brock will get back. Like I said earlier I think in a very short amount of time the UFC's heavyweight division has become quite good. Just 3 years ago it was complete crap. Now it has multiple top-quality guys and is really interesting. So who does Cain get first? I'd bet Brock gets a second tier guy next and assuming he wins that then the loser of whoever loses the Cain-xxx fight or maybe the winner of a Carwin-xxx fight. Schaub will maybe get a shot at someone decent soon? Putting Gonzaga down moves him into the discussion for a top opponent.

I guess Dos Santos is next in line for Cain.

Cain will fight Dos Santos. Shane Carwin faces Roy Nelson in January, and the winner of that fight will fight the #1 contender. Lesnar's next fight is rumored to be the rubber match with Frank Mir, unless Brock leaves UFC to go back to the WWE, which is the rumor as of this morning.

UPDATE: The Undertaker was on hand for the PPV last night, and made allusion to Wrestlemania by "confronting" Brock on camera. As of my update, The WWE has offered Lesnar a very lucrative deal to come back to wrestling and face the Undertaker at wrestlemania 30.

Wow, just caught the fight. Brock got knocked around silly... He looked like a rag doll stumbling around the ring. I have to give it up to Velasquez- he just handled Brock.

Dos Santos is definitely his biggest threat.

Back in the day there was no weight classes and little shits kicked ass. They would just avoid the big punches until the big guy got tired then they would beat the crap out of them. Not sure if that would work in todays world.

Re: Brock Lesnar vs Cain Velasquez predictions??

Yeah back in the day UFC was totally different. Tank Abbott was a monster. He had no formal training, but kicked everyone's ass. I still remember when Abbott KTFO of John Matua, giving him a seizure and going into a "fighter's crucifix" from massive head trauma. Matua never fought again, true story...

I remember Royce Gracie having to just keep working his BJJ on huge dudes until they submitted... crazy times, back then.

Not to take the focus away from this thread but I honestly feel like the only fight that for me is really worth watching will be Paccy vs. Mayweather. Come on guys, stop the bitch-fest and just agree to terms. I can watch MMA/UFC and all that but Manny v. Mayweather is all I really want to see.
