And Cain just ruined his knee again.  God damn it.  Still, Ngannou absolutely merked Cain.

Francis didn't really seem to land much of anything in that replay. Cain's knee is just ****** apparently.

Cain is just to small and too shopworn, and his guard is too porous to deal with a guy like Francis.

Sadly, I think that's the last we see of the great man.

***. So Cain's body is broken I guess. Talk about anti-climactic.

Should have known Cain never does well coming off long layoffs. Hopefully he didn't injure himself again.

The reason his knee broke is because he was out on his legs. Just crumpled and without full consciousness he couldn't prop his leg. He was jellyfished.

Seems like one of Ngannou's 1-2 combination bounced off Cain's forehead, then the crouch then the knee went. Sad...

Man, I hope we see him again. I would hate for him to go out like that. It would be a ******* travesty.
