    Which one is it?..

    Cain had Dos Santos hurt on multiple occasions but couldn't put him away. Dos Santos practically had the kitchen sink thrown at him and lasted the distance. Still not quite sure how he survived such a murderous onslaught for 5 rounds.

    Does Cain lack KO power? or does Dos Santos have a chin+heart made of steel?

    Give Cain 3 months of continuously punching JDS in the chin, and he still would not kod him :deal

    Cain has decent power you don't stop Nog with feather fists but JDS does have a good chin.

    Decent chin by JDS but at the same time how many punches did Cain land with full extension. I recall two right hands that landed with full extension and one of them really hurt JDS. Many punches were just short punches with not a lot behind them and he also was tired after 2 rds and gassed down the stretch.

    Cain just couldn't put those punches together, and was landing one at a time. Not sure if I saw a combination landed outside of the single collar tie.

    Typical, bar brawlers with little punching technique. Shocked it went the distance though

    Great chin and unbelievable heart by Junior

    Cain may have stole the belt, but Junior was the real wiinner last night

    The fact that this man JDS was hurt by a wrestlers punch says it all. Perhaps his chin is good in terms of UFC but nowhere else. And he ain't making it past round one with either Klitschko or any half decent heavyweight boxer.

    I think the beating Cain gave him was worse than a KO.

    I dont think not being able to finish a guy is worse than finishing him like JDS did to Cain
