And why do you think he wasn't able to keep his back off the cage? BECAUSE he's tired.
Always take the first 2 minutes of the fight to judge. In the first couple minutes, he was doing it right, circling, throwing bombs, defending takedowns, and getting back to the middle.
Its because his blood was flowing right, no cardio issues, so he was fully aware. That's the difference.
Once you start lacking oxygen, you're not fully aware anymore, you're doing the wrong things, soon you're folding and you're coasting through.
No shit sherlock.
He didn't circle at all the first two minutes the entire first round he got forced to the cage. He came out trying to throw bombs and Cain kept cutting off the cage and forced him to the cage and THATS WHAT TIRED HIM OUT. It TIRES OUT EVERY STRIKER WHEN FACING A SUPERIOR GRAPPLER. We did not see some revolutionary gameplan last night. It was BJ/GSP II all over again. Even if JDS had some god like cardio he fought Cain's fight WHICH LED TO HIS DOWNFALL. JDS cardion was fine in high output fights like JDS/R. Nelson, JDS/Cro-Cop, JDS/Carwin only difference in those fights than the ones with Cain, was he was ABLE TO DICTATE THE PACE.
Like someone already pointed out its harder being the nail than the hammer.
Done analyzing. Later
