Who is a Threat to Cain?

So Cain takes out JDS in a solid dominant performance and I don't think anybody is demanding a rematch :dead

Question is WHO is the greatest potential threat to Cain in your opinion :think :bbb


I feel DC, but then DC says he is going to LW,,, but then I don't think he will make it successfully and last successfully. That's just me. I feel DC got under rated at HW when he came out saying he is going to LW,,,, we will see, So I personally see DC failing to make a smooth move to LW and I see him as the BEST potential threat to Cain if and when this may or may not happen.

Yes that Brazilian JJ dude is solid and skilled enough to catch Cain in a quick submission if Cain is not on his game. I just see that dude catching too many shots on the roll and having a hard time sinking a sub into Cain if I had to bet on it.

JJ I have not bought into his HW hype as of yet.

 

Yeah I didn't say it but it is sucking ass as of late. Yep good fighters but yeah I wouldn't bet on them.

 

Yes well said. Much is made of JJ at LHW as being one of the best. Overlooked is Cain in natural ways flying under the casual fans radars. His motor or stamina for days as you said, at HW that is such a FACTOR providing your tough and skilled enough to survive. Don't get me wrong I don't have Cain down as all time best HW at this stage as several years of success against a high level would be needed. Thus far I think JDS has already provided that for Cain. Yes it looks THIN right now. But its not as if Cains career has been created from DUCKING the top guys, the opposite all the way. He fights smart and powerful. With cardio for a big guy. He paces himself while fighting at a high pace. He is FAST, no not the FASTEST, however, he is fast plus his timing is great as he is willing to get CLIPPED and prepared to deal with it REALISTICALLY and clip back without creating fear from being clipped. He took this to its EDGE against JDS who thus acted coy for a split second and then unloaded upon Cain with handspeed/distance that is simply seldom EXPERIENCED at such a EXTREME rate. He went out. Did he come back gun shy like Brock Lesner seemed to do? No offense to Brock, he didn't really know how to STRIKE for real for most of his LIFE so its not as much as of a insult as many would perceive. He was gun shy for one reason. He became AWARE for the first time that there were STRIKERs that could strike him harder and faster than he could strike them if he could not immediately bum rush them. When he ran into dudes he could not so easily bum rush he ran into problems. He did what he could to win, he tried to buy time without quiting, that's good. Nevertheless, Cain went the other way, he got even better SPARRING and worked on high output levels of HEAVY SHOTs as per his teams guidences etc.

Ok enough of my rantings, I still say that JJ does not TRANSLATE to the PERFECT HW that most assume him to become. I could see the current crop of HW's giving him some problems in more than a few points other than just Cain, DC , JDS etc,,, well that's the point, I could see JJ being beaten solid by even a top 10 dude on the right night. Very different game with a skilled tough dude that already knows how to survive heavy punishment.

Well screw it, I will rant some more, I am not in a hurry currently, let me say this for GOSSIP, DC hates JJ and VICE VERSA, this is being left out for how intense it is EVEN when being hyped as it already has been as a RIVALRY,,,, my feelings is that DC hates JJ for REAL, in a REAL way that is UNDER DC's skin,,, JJ is trying HARD to pretend its NOTHING, the problem is DC has already MARKED JJ for death so to speak,, don't forget im being dramatic, I mean for VICTORY in the cage, RIGHT, so DC has JJ in his sights and I FEEL that this is THE REAL reason he is making such a CRAZY run to get down to LW,,, he simply hates JJ,,, badly,, why ? Because JJ tried to DIS DC in public one time saying DC had a long way to go CONCEALING implying not just in WEIGHT but in EXPERIENCE and SKILL and DC did not like it, they stared at each other and DC was like, "are you going to clarify what your saying dude or leave me hanging?" and JJ was like, "what you know that's the truth, I am the pound for pound champ of the world, be honest with yourself my friend" and then DC just kept staring and JJ looked away and ever since then DC has been looking into JJs eyes trying to REMIND him that even if he has to come down to a weight that will limit him he will do it to beat JJs ass.

Well that's that way that's fun for me to look at it at the very least.
