Cain velazquez vs Alex pereira in his natural weight

[Ivancho]

First of all, I know that Pereira fights at LHW and Cain was a HW, but they both weigh the same. Alex weighed 109 kg (240lbs) a few weeks ago and in very good shape, which is exactly the same weight as Cain in his prime—240 lbs—with very little definition, looking like a plumber

In a hypothetical fight, Pereira would have no chance. Seeing how easily Ankalaev put him against the cage, Cain would have destroyed him.

Id pick Cain but theres a good chance Cain gets clipped coming in like his fight with Kongo.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

It might look like Cain vs JDS III or it might not.

 

[GreatSaintGuillotine]

My gut says Cain but that might be Nostalgia

 

[Mammothman]

Cain pressure, wrestling and strenght might give Alex issues but Cain tends to get hit too so Alex can catch him as well.

What's up with this extremely hypothetical fight between a long time retired hw and someone who's never had a fight at hw?

Well, except for the obvious: "Lol, Alex was never good. Let's figure out yet another way to put him down".

Pathetic. Weird.

We cant forget what he did to JDS who probably is the scariest striker we had.

only fight i ever wanted to see with cain was remach with denis stojnic. that firt fight he was fat while what he did to struve he would do to cain if he ws in shape

Pereira probably does worse than JDS if they had 3 matches. He could always catch him, but Cain may have been the best HW of all time in his small amount of prime he had. Alex would destroy later Cain that lost to Werdum.

Or JDS #1. But I'd pick prime Cain to win more times than he gets caught. His TDs and wrestling were levels better than Ank, and he had endless cardio for a HW. Poatan's 37-year old self would wilt to a younger Cain's pressure and cardio within a few rounds.

 

[Subline]

Cain smashes him in R1 like he did to Lesnar/Bigfoot

 

[koquerelle]

Cain by bullet to the gut.
