I think being normal or yourself instead of acting or trying to be something you're not brushes of well with the public because more people can relate to it. Once they step in the ring the switch gets turned on and it's beast mode ala Fedor. People love that in my opinion, more so then anything else. |

That's true, really true but Fedor had no personality either.
I'm meaning when you here them talk etc. you never see Cain laughing or angry or show any real emotion when he speaks. I'm not saying he should act, I'm just saying he has very little personality and that's ok... Not everyone can be pat Barry. |

100%, all of the fighters we judge based on what we see in media, in the end we neither live or strike with them in the gym.
JDS, and Cain are as BOOM said, like Fedor. Their fights speak for themselves. Its not just the UFC that is luck, its us the FANS who can watch these top level HW compete, and one taking the belt from the other.

Do you mean that he needs to laugh or show emotions to have a personality? If thats what you say? I disagree.
Some don't show their true personality easily. Some are very illusional and hard to predict. I think they are the most ferious guys. You can't predict what they will do if you don't know how they will react!
Maybe I'm talking philosophy

Without showing emotion I don't see how you can show personality. I don't mean extremes, even something little like a grin in conversation or a frown or anything other thane a stone emotionless face. The only glimpse of emotion I have ever seen from Cain is when he raised his arms and fell to the floor after he beat JDS.
I dunno, maybe it's just me sees it like that? |

Fedor having no personality was/is a myth in my opinion, the truth is he was just your ordinary family guy that lived next door who would rather go for a walk with his wife and kids at the park (like Cain). Then he would walk into the ring, calm and collected, nothing flashy, not ripped like some of the juice heads (instead a little chubby) and just proceeded to slay everyone once the bell rang. |

The level of speach, the tone, all of that can show you a person's personality. Not just face microexpressions. The reason I say that is because if you judge based on microexpressions, then you can be twisted or in other words fooled. These can be trained to show something other than what is truely behind that face/person 
You can read about deception/deceivement, and stuff like that if your interested.

Cain is like a Mach 3 version of Randy Couture. Quicker, better cardio, and more power. Randy used to break people, and although Junior didnt quit, he looked broken after the first round. Similar to the syliva randy fight. The recent fight was like a mirror image of that couture fight only with latest and best mma fighters dueling it out.
A fully fit Cain could hold onto this title for years, junior may have met his match.

...I think in fairness JDS should take the route Cain had to take. Junior should face the winner of Reem vs. Bigfoot- and win in stunning fashion before getting Cain again. This Trilogy is going to fast. I hope there's some time before the rubbermatch...
...Anywho-- UFC 158 is shaping up to be the card of 2013 already! HUGE implications in the WW Division. Sick fights lined up so far. GSP vs.Diaz. Condit vs. MacDonald. Hendricks vs. Ellenberger. I hope all 6 stay healthy!...
