Prediction: correct Velasquez   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

Dos Santos could have finished Hunt earlier but decided to drag it out which kind of bothered me, and then he hits Hunt with a kick that barely grazed him making him trip and get the TKO. I think we are gonna see another 5 round fight here with a decision going to Velasquez. Dos Santos can take an unreal amount of power and damage but I think Cain is getting the decision here.

"Dragged it out"???

I can promise you that the only fighter in the UFC who has the balls to "drag a fight out" is Anderson Silva.

The rest finish the fight as soon as they can and not a second later.

I think that JDS should fight the winner of Overeem/Browne, 


I'm kind of tired of certain divisions only having one or two top contenders.

Prediction: correct Velasquez   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 4  


I think this fight doesn´t offer anything new, I think  most people can agree that Cain is a more complete fighter than JDS and the only way he can defeat Cain is if he catches him, otherwise he will get dominated for as long as the fight goes, the only small appeal this fight has is that is a rubber match, but as far as rubber matches go this is not a very exciting one,I rather watch Cain vs Werdum and JDS vs Browne/Overeem winner.

what really bothers me is the Cain probably won´t fight again during this year after this fight and both of his fights this year werewould be rematches and in his las 4 fights he has fough 2 different guys I know the talent pool is low at HW but  there´s still Werdum, Barnet and Overeem and not too far Browne, Stipe and Mir

I hope JDS smashes Cain!

If Junior had finished mark in the first I'd say he'd have a legitimate chance at getting the belt back. But his second fight with Cain Was probably the worst beat down I've ever seen, next to Brock vs mir 2

What does finishing Hunt in the first have to do with his loss to Cain? VVut?

I looked up the pick % for the second fight. They're the exact opposite for this fight. Went from 70/30 JDS to 70/30 Cain.

I don't remember picking this fight. But it's a ******* close one, so I'm just gonna stick with my previous judgement because I can't make up my mind now that I've reevaluated this fight.

I've picked the first two fights between Cain and JDS wrong. Will probably flip flop on this one a few times.

The first fight I didn't really care who won, in the rematch I was rooting for Cain; this last fight I'm gonna be rooting for JDS since I want to see a rematch between JDS and Werdum.
