    JDS is a bad, bad man, I think he stops Cain in the first again. What's great about him is that he is a genuinely cool guy outside of the cage as well.

    The only person I can see challenging JDS is Cormier, providing he has a good chin. His wrestling is on another level. Cains wrestling is good but JDS' take down defence is better and when he lands on that chin it's lights out.

    to cain's credit he had an acl injury right before the fight but never made an excuse or disclosed it. When the fight was about to begin i coul see a different look on cains face. I knew someting was not right. I know it affected his mobility and was their for the taking. I think he might pull this one off.

    Weak, Cain Velasquez was fighting six months later, and JDS was getting surgery a month later for an torn meniscus he suffered during that camp too.

    I find the whole situation laughable.

    i have to agree with this, it was actually quite common knowledge that Dos Santos had an injury going into their first fight, the rumours where huge, and in the end, proved correct.

    the first fight, imo was no fluke, i really dont see anything different happening this time around. Its very rare to see a rematch when the guy that got knocked out, comes back to win.

    first round knockout for Dos Santos is my bet

    JDS punches him out towards the end of the opening round.

    But, nothing surprises me when it comes to Mixed Martial Arts :good

    Oh btw... I wasn't trying to go hard on you bigdog, peace bro.

    Velasquez
    it will be stopped again in the first round
    but this time because after the takedown Cain will be pounding on JDS

    I like Cain to come back with a vengeance in this one. Steamrolls JDS for five rounds to reclaim his title and set up the rubber match in 2013.

    Well, he is a lighter man by nine pounds this time around. I wonder if that will make a difference.
