Brock vs. Cain

Dana sticking to the plan of Mir/Carwin winner getting next shot if they aren't injured

Where is CainFan when you need him.

It does make me wonder how cain is off his back that is something we have never seen.

When Brock fights either Carwin or Cain, I wonder how good he will be off his back.

If, and I mean if either of them got him down, I think he'd be able to power and scrabble out.

Rubber guard.

I think that would be the right gameplan actually brock is used to moving forward and going through people what happens when he is on his back. He would be crushed mentally and physically cause all his life he has been the spoiled big bully.

LOL that would be HILARIOUS!

Man...before last night, I would have said that Lesnar would DESTROY Cain....after last night's fight...its definately alot closer.

I would have to pay attention to their pre-fight preparations and how their training goes and such before I made my pick.

Lesnar's sheer size, power, speed, and athleticism gives him the advantage IMO but Cain is still very dangerous.

I've been on the fence because of Cain's standup. I don't think Nog had any excuses, he wasn't slow. I think Nog was made to look bad by Cain. Both Nogs have great BJJ which is closely seconded by their great boxing. Cain's boxing movements, hips up, were too good. Cain beats Brock with good striking and movement like that. I have already felt that the in the wrestling department Cain was ahead and better equipped to win that fight, but his moving and striking look good enough now for a nod of confidence on the feet.

Looking at their wrestling base, Brock's main weapon was his strength and size. You won't find people who say he was a national champ because he was technically the better wrestler, he was the bigger stronger wrestler. Cain on the other hand was known for being the best wrestler when he won, and he would typically beat the Brocks, the guys who had 20 pounds on him and were much stronger. His best weapon was his talent. It's all speculation until they meet but I think Cain is the better wrestler. I'm now sold on his standup. He flattened one of the most stout HW's in the sports history. Something that took Mir an extra 5 minutes to do against a sick injured version of that fighter. Also If a fight with Brock and Cain lingered Cain is will go 5 whole rounds. Not sure about brock.

Nog looked slow, he has great standup, but last night he looked slow, against Randy he looked crisp and quick, but that was fools gold because Randy is even slower.

Brock size and strength advantage is the great equalizer to Cain wrestling skills, which I think are close anyways.
