If both men showcase all their skills and tools, I will be satisfied. The worse outcome would be if either one lands, gets a knock-down, swarms, and the other can't properly defend from their back wtih the other swarming.
That is always the least satisfying ending of any fight, regardless of whose fighting. A clean KO where someone is stiff and unconscious is different. A clean KO if fine. Like when Hendo knocked Bisping into tomorrow, but Ellenberger vs. Kampmann is not fine.

I think JDS will win again but I think this fight has his right to exist.

I don't have a problem with Cain getting the rematch. Who else is going to fight him right now? JDS will win by first round KO again. There is no need to prove the knockout was a fluke because it wasn't. First, JDS has been knocking people out for a while. Second, Cain has shown he can't take a big shot when it's landed. Cain has been able to dominate most of the heavyweight division because of superior quickness with his hands/striking and the ability to take the fight down to the ground at will. However, he fought Cheik Kongo a little while back and won a decision. Kongo tagged him and dropped him three separate times in that fight. If Kongo had possessed any kind of TDD at the time he would have finished the fight.
Well, JDS will punch Cain in the face again, because he is a superior striker by far (best boxing of any heavyweight); Cain will fall back down again, and JDS will finish him again. One can talk about how nobody tries to take JDS down. Sure they do, JDS just makes them look foolish and positions himself appropriately to avoid the attempt. Plus, its quite difficult to take somebody down when he punches you in the face every time you get close. I'm just saying, the man hasn't been taken down in years, (and never in the UFC), that's got to mean something.

Also has JDS told us yet what round and how he will win the fight? I really would like him to make my pick soon.

"I'm just saying, the man hasn't been taken down in years, (and never in the UFC), that's got to mean something."
yes it means something and Cain taking down every fighter at will also means something, nothing is set in stone in MMA much less in a hevyweight match and even more in a title HW fight.
whatever happens this probably will be more entertaining that the first fight.
Also I don´t get why ppl is interested in watching JDS vs Hunt just because Hunt can take a punch better than any other humen doesn´t mean he deserves a title shot, he packs power and an excelent chin, but he´ll probably gas after the first 3 minutes, he is much slower than JDS and has shorter reach, and he doesn´t have great skills, he has already fought against top HW´s and lost every fight, there´s just the matter of knowing if JDS can finish him or not, but at this point in their carrers there´s no reason at all for them to fight each other, and I don´t think it will ever be.

Hunt's stand up is better than almost everybody in the heavyweight division. It's clearly better than Roy's and I dare say it might be better than Cain's.
I'd like to see this fight, and I hope Hunt keeps winning so this can happen...

Hunt might not be on an all around champion level but he has chances because of his stand up. Because styles make fights. It wouldn't be a missmatch like you make it sound like it would.
That's all I'm saying

I dunno if 10 strikes are enough to say he make him look like an amateur but it was a good KO
