velasquez vs werdum 2 is the fight to make.

[shortlefthook]

This is obviously the fight to make, with werdum losing his belt and wanting another crack at the title, a fight with cain would make perfect sense considering how he just dispatched of travis browne.
Cain gets a chance to avenge that loss and prove once and for all who the better fighter is.

The sea level cain that showed up last night wrecks werdum imo, largerly because he wont gas in one round from being 7000ft in the air.
Cain won that first round against werdum and started gassing fast very uncharacteristic and thats one i would like to see ran back.

Just like lennox lewis when he fought hamad in africa at 5k elevation, he trained at sea level he gassed and lost, then trained at altitude and spanked him in the rematch this is a very real factor.

 

[ortizgnp]

I'm up for it.

 

[AceCooch]

I'll take a prime Cain vs anybody, its bound to be good

 

[J0N0]

Nah, I'd rather watch fights I haven't seen unless it's completely necessary. Especially with Cain who fights the same few guys on rotation.

Ok play matchmaker then whos werdum the former champ going to fight that makes sense? Velasquez is litterally the only guy

He already has a fight booked against Rothwell in UFC 203.

 

[DetachedOrchid]

Agreed. If he avenges that title shot against stipe.

Fuckk i forgot, well there goes that.
Maybe cain takes another fight, and if werdum wins i would like to see them go at it again.
Shit even if he loses

^ this guy

With the lack of contenders at the moment I'd guess that Cain would fight the winner of Reem/Stipe - Although personally I'd like to see him fight Derek Lewis first to prove that he can stay healthy.

Black beast vs velasquez book it then werdum vs velasquez rematch.

 

[RafaelDosSantos]

Sea level Cain would mutilate Werdum

Would like to see

 

[RafaelDosSantos]

Cain by wheel kick

 

[Fight Professor]

Black beast vs velasquez book it then werdum vs velasquez rematch.

Why? Nelson was taking down Black Beast like a sack of potatoes. Black Beast should fight Hunt.

Cain vs Werdum 2 is the fight to make before Cain gets the title shot.

Smart man.

 

[SimonNova]

It should be mandatory to check if a fighter has a fight booked first prior to starting a topic about who he ''should'' fight next.

 

[Jopo]

Yeah just what Cains career needs. Another rematch.

Its always fun watching cain give a gassed opponent brain damage. Book it for 203 and then it sets up the werdum vs velasquez rematch, granted werdum gets through rothwell.

 

[runnpray]

Cain should get the next title shot.
