Hey RedHawks!When did I imply that's the entirety of the fight? The poster I was replying to said that Werdum was beating him when he was fresh which clearly wasn't the case.
For such 'domination', the significant strikes landed for each men was surprisingly close...
Hey RedHawks!
When will you issue an apology for belittling Werdum and his skills on this forum leading up to the fight? When will you admit to being dead wrong saying how great Cain is and how Werdum would be a cakewalk?
What happened to your HW GOAT?
Velasquez is an excellent fighter, but Werdum is just better. Werdum has always been underrated, and it's an easy thing to say in retrospect, but the truth is Werdum was always the best grappler in the heavyweight division, and showed incredible strides in his striking during the Travis Browne fight (where he also was the underdog). He's become the total mixed martial artist, and showed in his last fight that he's completely figured out Velasquez as well. Werdum was beating Velasquez before Velasquez gassed out.
Werdum will be to Velasquez, what Velasquez was to dos Santos.
you are clearly a cain fan, which is cool, but i have an honest question.
if we assume that you are correct in that the 2 year layoff had a detrimental impact and that the elevation had a detrimental impact on cain's performance, how can you so blindly make excuses for a professional fighter that failed to perform or apparently train to extent that was necessary?
i dont wish to sound unkind, but i have had this argument with penn fans for years. he lost because he doesnt train, or wasnt ready or whatever. how can a person respect and follow a fighter that doesnt respect the sport or the fans or the opponent enough to properly prepare.
The vegas bookies know what's up, not a single place offering Velasquez as the underdog. Cain fans seen this all before with the 1st JDS fight and it will be equally glorious when history repeats against Werdum.
