This is what I thought would happen the first fight until I heard about the knee injury.
Cain started SO SLOW the first fight...as soon as he came jumping out of the gate this time I knew shit got real and that this was the Prime Cain that I thought before the fight could possibly be the greatest HW to ever compete.
Junior gassed in less than four minutes. When people aren't standing directly in front of him he isn't all that dangerous. Then again pressure does a lot to screw up a fighter's rhythm.
This just reminded me that i absolutely HATE Cain. I dont know why but he is easily my least favorite fighter of them all. I guess its his chubby look or sth i dont know. But i really ******* hate him. Hope Overeem will destroy him bad.
Totally not the way I expected this fight to go. Man...banked everything I had on JDS. 10mill credits on him, picked him in the Holiday UFC contest, and the GP.
To be fair it wasn't really a lucky punch in teh first fight. No such thing as a lucky punch. It was set up well, Cain stood directly in front of him and presented a target and lost for it. This time Cain refuses to allow JDS to get a target like Mir, Carwin, Nelson, and so many others have given him by standing face to face with JDS.
JDS looked slow & "off" right from the beginning. Cain looks like the beast I'm used to seeing. It's almost like the reverse of the first fight. Crazy stuff!
I really hope this isn't the excuse people are going to run with. Cain is simply the more well rounded fighter. Let's not forget he ran through pretty much everyone before getting clipped by a lucky shot in their first fight.
