TweetMan, I was surprised Cain got tired. Didn't look like himself. I saw a shitty version while driving in my car. Need to rewatch it when I can pay better attention. Not sure how much I can base the fight off Rogans commentating.
Tweetwerdum TKO'd hunt who has an iron chin but velasquez is so fast and dynamic. and has great takedowns. would be hard for werdum to get a sub off his back while smashed into the cage. and cain will fake takedowns to disrupt werdum's striking. then when werdum starts to think cain will not go for the TD boom.....double leg right into the fence.
cain's #1 weapon............cardio. best in all heavyweight combat sports IMO.
even if werdum can win the first 2-3 rounds he WILL gas with velasquez's pressure.
so what are your thoughs?

Tweetyeah he gassed. he looked pretty good in the first. landed good shots but wilted. he got tagged a lot more. maybe that was what threw him off? that and like werdum stated perhaps this was his first fight without PEDs?
TweetThat's what I thought bro. That's what I mention in the ufc 188 thread. I thought that before I even heard werdum said it. Makes sense. I have a feeling after the new testing a lot of guys are not going to look themselves
Tweetlook at overeem. he was a world beater and came in to the UFC with a sigh.
TweetHa, I know, overeem failed that test against Brock too.
I don't know what exactly the penalties are but they're getting harsher. I think I read 2 years first offense.
I don't have a big problem with PEDs but having one guys juiced up and the other is not cool. It used to be part of the game but it seems those days are over.
I'd say EPO is the real killer, your gas tank is everything in a fight and that shit works wonders from what I understand.
Tweetyou are right. how many fights did we see a guy like melvin guilard who hits hard. the guy weathers it and comes back to win when he gasses.
ken shamrock said he thinks that it should be legal for recovery. but if everyone has to train the same way it's all good. he is jacked and at 50 definitely on the sauce
