thats a nasty cut on brock

 

[brainchild81]

Yeah!!!!! I knew it!!! I still like Brock, but I knew Cain wasn't gonna pull a Shane

 

[Lobo]

I got home just in time to see Velasquez whoop on Brock. Made my day happy as I picked Cain to win

 

[enterthemadness]

Lesnar got upset? 1st rd TKO I read.

Is Andrei the pitbull in ufc or strikeforce?

 

[E-Man]

There is plenty of room on the Cain Train guys. There's always enough room to witness a legend being made.

 

[BlackLantern]

always interesting to see title changes....Im more of a fan of the middleweight/welterweight divisions

 

[unknownuser]

hahaha...all aboard the cain train then.
Who will he fight first? Certainly not Brock. Should Carwin get another shot at the title, or is it too early?

 

[Paroxysm]

That crazy scramble Lesnar did across the cage after Cain rocked him will live on in gif form forever. lol

 

[BlackLantern]

too early....Carwin IMO should have to earn another title shot, considering how his fight with Brock went

 

[E-Man]

Cain will fight JDS next. He's been said to be in line for a while now. Cain should be the early favorite since JDS has cardio questions since the Roy fight, and we haven't seen how he works off his back.

 

[El Bastardo]

Carwin didn't land the number of clean shots that Cain landed.

Facts are facts.

[BlackLantern]

would the Shake Weight have helped Brock win?

Last I saw of Arlovski, he was with Strikeforce.

 

[Paroxysm]

Last I saw of Arlovski, he was with Strikeforce.

Yeah he's been getting his clock cleaned there.

Shane v. Roy is next. Gonna settle that 'net beef

 

[BlackLantern]

if he beats Roy, then yes...give him a shot

 

[E-Man]

I htink they should have Brock fight Kongo, then maybe Carwin again if he beats Nelson. Anything but a third Mir match right now.

 

[brainchild81]

Ditto.

Shields lost IMO. Did NO damage. I hope GSP beats the **** outta him. Tito might wanna consider retiring

 

[Paroxysm]

The evolution of the sport and the weight class always dictates the same process, very very biological in fact. A large predator comes in and forces evolution of the smaller prey. Soon, the prey are able to defend themselves, the hunter becomes the hunted, Cain > Brock.

Wow, what a performance from Cain. Lesnar looked friggin pumped for the fight until Velaquez caught him with that short punch that Lesnar completely leaned into while going for a takedown.. followed by his spinaroonie.

Didn't shock me to see Cain try & take Lesnar down, I had a feeling he'd try to stick him on his back if Cain became a little worried by Lesnar's either punching power or his ability to power a takedown.

The difference in this fight & the Shane Carwin fight was that when Lesnar was in trouble, Carwin was throwing fight ending bombs one after the other after the other.. he connected with about 6 of them and threw about 15..very inaccurate and energy consuming. Whereas in this fight, after Cain hurt him with that knee Cain threw mildly powerful punches that where more accurate than powerful, they where enough to get the fight stopped & keep Lesnar guessing and indeed wobbled.

Lesnar expended alot of energy not only in his first onslaught, but just trying to keep moving when Velasquez had him down. So unlike in the Carwin fight, when he did try to grab hold of a leg, Cain just pulled his leg out.. combined that with eating alot of punches he was wobbled & tired.. the cage held him up when he briefly got back up.

I had a feeling Velasquez might be a future champion.. I just didn't think he'd be the man to beat Lesnar.

Credit to Lesnar though, he came out like a freight train. He barrelled into Velasquez getting 2 takedowns & got some good solid shots landed in the clinch, including a flying knee of all things.. coming out like this I think kinda proved his downfall. When he got Velasquez down Cain had half a butterfly guard if there is such a position, Lesnar I think thought he was in some danger of being kicked off so he was very impatient & tried to advance position immediately without controlling Velasquez, which in turn allowed Velasquez to bounce back up.

Roy Nelson?
