Werdum looked oddly defensive in round 1, but it makes sense now. Cain may not have realized how bad the altitude would be when he landed, but by the time of the fight Cain and his team had to know they were in trouble and that they would need a huge round 1 or 2 KO. Werdum knew that Cain would realize this by the fight, so his plan was to just defend and let Cain punch himself out and then win.

I had 20 on Werdum, but am still punching myself for not putting down more. Velasquez was extremely rusty and just looked lost, altitude aside. He'll bounce back and be fighting for the title again soon.
It just sucks that the heavyweight division is essentially extinct. Who's next for a title shot? Andrei freakin' Arlovski? The guy who lost to Tim Sylvia twice and has fought 3 times in the UFC during the Obama administration? I'm praying to God that my man Alistair Overeem steps his game up and competes. Same with Dos Santos and his surgery. Hell, maybe Mir has one more title shot left in him. |

Miocic. He probably beat JDS in that fight and has gotten better IMO.

He probably had no idea that Cain was hurting from the altitude, since I doubt he was doing much training with him in Mexico City. Probably flew in for just the fight. I bet only Cain and his trainers knew how much trouble he was in.

DAMN!
Anyone else see that strawweight championship fight on fightpass? Joanna ****ed Penne up pretty bad over 3 rounds. Her face looked like a horror show, nose probably broken, blood everywhere.

Damn it, I was just starting to relax thinking we made it to 189 unscathed...
... well anyway, Jose Aldo has a broken rib. Its the kind of fracture that can heal quickly, but we're two weeks out. Unless the state of Nevada medically disqualifies him, I think the fight is still on. Aldo will never have another chance to make this kind of money again, and if he loses, he'll obviously get an instant rematch especially with this built-in excuse. If he wins after breaking a rib two weeks out, then holy shit that would be awesome for his legacy.

Will wait a bit until Aldo's camp announced if it's significant or not. I don't see them downplaying it publicly, since it's a legitimate excuse if he performs like shit.
