I just read this and decided to translate just the important parts, sorry if my english is bad :P


Junior admited that he knew what cain would do in the third fight, that he went there with a lesson learned from their second bout

"But I don't know what happend, I knew everything, but I wasn't able to impose my game, actually, I didn't do anything that I planned, I repeated the same mistakes. the first time I had some personal problems and overtraining. now I was fine and it happened like that. I don't know how to explain it."

"I have become a predictable fighter, everyone knows me, they know what I'm going to do. Cain had the antidote to every movement that I did, always pressuring me. I think I've stopped evolving, I need to go back to work, to study, look for new techniques"

"I have many proposals, I talked to a lot of people, but I still haven't decided on anything. I need to talk to my team and see what's best for everybody. but I think it's a good idea to go training with Bigfoot and Roan Juc
 
JDS just gave up his Brazilian citizenship with this line "now I was fine and it happened like that. I don't know how to explain it."

Come on man you can do better than that. You under trained or got a call from the girl you like in middle school. SOMETHING!
 
the Hunt KO was quite unpredictable.

No Schaub fight it seems. I hope he gets Travis Browne then.
 
good guy.. he showed mercy towards schuab, he didn't want to kill the poor guy after all and go for the easy payday.. he wants big fights

True although you could argue that tactically it was rather similar to his big looping shots.

Part of JDS's problem is I'd say that his opponants are becoming more aware of his weaknesses. When he first burst onto the scene with those KO's of Werdum and Struve I think he built up a fear factor that played into his game very well, everyone(including Cain first time round) was giving him the space he likes to have.

After the second Cain match he really should have avoided the third until he'd put a lot of work into building up more counters to forward movement.
 
Unfortunately for Junior there is no way his game is going to evolve to what it needs to be to beat Cain, he isn't going to gain that wrestling and pressure to his game at this age

He has a chance to be champ again, if someone else can beat Cain
 
He's only 29 and can evolve a good deal still, who knows how much, but I definitely think training at ATT with Bigfoot and Glover could only help him, even if it's just stepping outside his comfort zone.

I don't think he needs to pressure Cain to beat him, rather to devolp the ability to counter Cain's pressure. Still suddenly devolping a Crocop like straight this late into his career does seem like it maybe difficult.
 
I'm glad he recognizes he needs to expand beyond his comfort zone if he wants to beat Cain and that he needs to leave his gym, maybe not permanently but to train elsewhere. I'm interested to see what he changes and how he can evolve. What he really needs is footwork and cardio.

Training with Gustafsson would do him a world of good.
 
That's why I love JDS, just the plain truth.
Yeah, go to ATT or Alliance
 
JDS is cool but it doesn't matter how much he tries to evolve Cain will always beat him (If not for a KO from JDS's end but even then he will be losing the fight till that happens). JDS just can't deal with Cain's wrestling, no matter how hard he tries. The only way JDS would have had a chance was if he started wrestling at a young age.
 
It's good if he switch camps and try something different.
 
He needs to learn to mix up his striking as well get an improved ground game.

But then again Cain got knocked out by a forearm.

JDS' biggest problem is that he isn't as good of a fighter as Cain is. It's just how it is.
