  1. The scariest thing about Cain is he out wrestles the most elite wrestlers and out strikes the elite strikers

  3. Here’s a statistic that people are always surprised by: Cain Velasquez has never won an mma fight in his career by submission.

    Cain is an undersized guy who developed into an incredible striker especially inside distance. He uses the resultant speed and conditioning to his foes chagrin. He’ll soften guys up and take their cardio so his undersized frame can take guys to the ground for ground and pound. Unfortunately though, these are not the pre-usada days and Cain has grey in his beard. He’s been injured, has many miles on him, had multiple surgeries and hasn’t fought in years. I find terrific value in mma when I get knockout artists as underdogs. I’ll take the fresh Ngannou who’s never been knocked down by strikes in his career and comes in with a massive 6-inch reach advantage and a likely 45-pound weight advantage after rehydrating on fight night. Good luck all.

  4. Ariel – Francis is having a hard time with your questions because his english is limited. Stop asking him questions that are long winded with slang english & advanced terms. Jeeeez.

  5. Cain's going to whoop this bum. EASY work for Cain. Francis's gas tank is on a time limit.

  6. No, Ngannou, you better HOPE Cain is not at his best…because he will break your will so easily.
