| Bader talks about how Cain's opponents seemed to always pull out of matches...
Ryan Bader recently shared some stories with MMAJunkie about teammate Cain Velasquez's early years.
On Cain's ASU years: "Cain was one of the guys who knew he was going to be fighting (in MMA)," Bader said. "Two weekends after we got back from nationals, he was in Nogales, Mexico. We were down there cornering him. We had no clue what we were doing. He was going to fight, and all he had was wrestling. He never took a boxing class in his life."
On a 2007 Vale Tudo event in Mexico: "It was probably lead paint," Bader said of the fighting surface. "It was hard as a rock. ... I actually got a slam. I had the guy's arm trapped and slammed him on his shoulder, and he basically hit concrete, which knocked him out."
On Cain's match that night: "His opponent saw Cain and was like, 'Hell no, I'm not fighting that guy,'" Bader said. The promoter eventually found another guy. "He was down there to warm up again, and he saw Cain hitting pads," Bader said. "He was like, 'That's it. I'm done. I'm done.'"
