Cain could've/should've been a goat

Even if his body had held up, his poor striking defense was always an issue.

This ^ Caine was always held back by this lack of ability to defend against strikes big time.

Pre Usada Cain had a supernatural gas tank.

Cain vs JDS 2 where Cain was spamming takedowns for several rounds is the pinnacle of the HW cardio. I have seen manlets and female fighters like Esparza getting tired doing that after a minute or two.

Yeah, pretty crazy with all that fat on his body as well.

Cain is on the goat list of how not to train.

Yup.

Unsustainable approach at a time when dudes were still figuring out what worked.

He ran it in the red till the wheels fell off.
Turns out that is not a great way to achieve longevity.

GOAT - no. GOAT HW - maybe.

Found prime Cain quite overrated. Always felt DC was better than him and don't really care what is said about their training together.

Apparently at AKA, Khabib > Islam, and Cain > DC

Where's the gif of him quickly pumping those knee-destroying leg curls?
