Eh I dunno about that. Getting caught is one thing, but Werdum did more than sub him when he was gassed, Werdum was eating him up with boxing AND the clinch game. Cain took the first but then gassed and Werdum pretty much outclassed him the rest of the fight. I'd say that'd be a pretty hard loss, especially when it was supposed to be a comeback fight from a long layoff.

Exactly most people thougt JDS loss was fluke(he proved it basically was). But the Werdum fight he list in every area and looked bad doing it. Dudes gonna have to change his gameplay and go much harder to get the win.

Yeah but I don't think that the altitude issue was just some cheap excuse. Sure the clinch tired him out but come on Cain's cardio was somewhat legendary and he had NONE in that fight it can't be a coincidence. Anyway who am I to judge what losses were harder for a fighter to handle I just don't think we can say that a former champion is done just because of an interview. I'm sure dude is beasting in the gym with a rematch in mind. Also that JDS loss took away his perfect record and taught him that he can bounce back and get better and dude fights Cormier every day in the gym.

Nah the altitude shyt was more than an excuse, it was very real. A bunch of fighters ended up damn near dead and puking right after their fights. Yeah Cain has excellent cardio but not only did he spend bout two years on the shelf but also Werdum had headed to train in Mexico City three months prior to the fight to become accustomed to the elevation while Cain was only there about a month prior. He underestimated it and it costed him.

Cain was only there for 2 weeks. Even outside of that he looked pathetic. He needs to come with a whole new gameplan. And don't be scared of the ground

You gotta be scared of the ground with Werdum he has the best guard in the division.
Yep, even Fedor couldn't handle his guard. Only one to make him tap, so that speaks volumes.

I see through his facade. He used to be good, but he stopped training BJJ the last few years, hes rusty, if you want to beat him you have to land some shots on the ground.

Werdum could barely control hunt in the ground

Cain always had an intimidation factor in his fights cause opponents were so worried about him taking them down cause his wrestling and top pressure, he doesn't have that advantage with werdum. Werdum is a technician on the ground and Cain wants no parts of it. Cains striking is always been solid but nothing outstanding his wrestling is what allowed him to open up with his striking. Unless he becomes more diverse with his striking werdum will beat him again cause werdum just more tools to the table and his Muay Thai is just nicer than cains boxing.

Can't even argue against this.


I've made friends with the idea Werdum very well might beat him again. Altitude aside Werdum is extremely dangerous everywhere Cain normally makes people wilt from.
