Damn it! This is one of those fights that you know is months out but want it to happen NOW! Someone call Doc Brown, I need a DeLorean.
Both bad men with all the skills in their prime, only one loss between them and some pretty good names on the CV. I think this is the best HW title fight in UFC history, maybe there has been bigger names square off in the past, but these two are legit.
Even though I'm a big JDS fan, I think that punch was not close to a full-force Carwin shot, Shane was tired and it was a pretty slow winged shot. JDS took better punches in the Nelson fight. But either way, I still think Cain had the ferocity to hurt Cigano. I just hope that Junior hurts him more.
JDS has good hands but I think Cain's kickboxing is better. Velazquez outworks Dos Santos to a decision.
Before Saturday night i favored Cain, But after saturday the way Cigano looked its almost a toss up for me.
I always went with JDS in the past but if the Cain that showed up against Brock fights the version thats fought the JDS version that beaten Nelson and Carwin....beleive Cain will win.
Right now I'm thinking JDS will use his height advantage over Cain and just keep Cain away with his jab/ catch Cain with uppercuts coming in, but Cain will be the aggressor. Controversial split descision for JDS. Both fighters are so technically good it should be more of a chess match than a throwdown. My opinion for now, probably change, 5 round fight is hard to call..
