I dont really know about that , I know though that you are gonna be remembered as one of the worst clickbaiters and posters in Sherdog History.

 

[ovbious]

He could only fight in very specific time periods

he only felt "safe" for these brief periods for some reason

 

[MMAProfessional]

Is Cain the longest? I don't think you should mention that if his length was due to injuries and not being stripped.

I will remember him for winning me $1000 well in Vegas for the Brock fight,

Then losing me $100 on a different trip to Vegas for the Jr. Fight ...

"the guy who lost to jds"? I remember him as the guy who destroyed JDS career

 

[cunglaowins]

His GNP was REALLY good

 

[Chubi]

I'll remember him as the one who could have been the greatest HW in MMA history. But didn't.

 

[faustian]

Highest peak along with Fed

100% this. As a Fedor nuthugger Cain is the only HW who imo ever posed a significant threat in a hypothetical prime h2h matchup

 

[Loiosh]

He fought so few times I barely remember him.

 

[Fwaming Dwagon]

Dude fought once in 2 years or something. Was getting injured just by waking up.

 

[Ivancho]

his body is made of glass but he was a beast

Despite never regaining the title jds's career has gone a lot better than Cain's post fight. Cain did more damage to himself than jds it appears. Jds also sports a better resume despite the 2 losses to cain. JDS > Cain
