    Jesus christ Velazquez is tough. About 30 seconds into the fight and Brock already looked gassed, while Velazquez looked like he hadn't broken a sweat.

    Man, how do you beat that guy. There's never going to be a physically larger/stronger fighter than Brock, so it's not like you can overpower him. Can't out-endure him. Jesus.

    I mean, I wouldn't have been shocked if Cain won in it in the third or fourth. But to just destroy him in the first. Wow.

    BTW--I so wish Diego Sanchez would go by Diego "Dirty" Sanchez. It'd be the most awesome nickname ever. I can just see Rogan snickering as he says, "Looks like Dirty Sanchez has got him north south."

    Crazy main event. Velasquez was smart by the way he went about finishing the fight. Boy was I wrong. Brock doesn't like to be bullied, that's for sure.

    unless you count the 3rd round a 10-8 score for kampmann because Shields clearly won 1 and 2.
    Sucks though because Shields did nothing like Kampmann said after the fight.

    I'm never going to be rooting for Brock Lesnar again. This guy looked like a fool out there, doing fucking spins and cartwheels like an idiot. Cain was probably laughing his ass off. Such much for having "heart" Brock. Why the fuck would you go all out and waste all of your energy in the first round?

    This bout just showed a fight between an experienced and an inexperienced fighter.

    So do you guys think Brock will get a rematch against Cain?

    Damn I'm good. (yeah I know didn't get round but fuck it I knew Cain would win weeks ago)

    Fuck you Lesnar for thinking you're the best there's ever been in UFC, go back to hunting or better yet go back to McMahon.

    VIVA LE MEXICO!!!

    Brock's not getting a rematch soon. He needs to win one or two big HW fights to get back.

    He should quit MMA my friend, he's not made for this, he's a freak when it comes to wrestling and weightlifting but as far as MMA is concerned he has no heart & stamina.

    I'm watching the post-fight press conference and Dana White said that he supposedly saw Brock yelling "stop" after getting smashed on the camera before the referee stopped it.

    He looked like more of a pussy against Carwin when he was literally turning and running from the dude. Can't believe that fight made some people think he was unbeatable. Dude got bent over by Carwin. Carwin shit the bed in the second round when his body shut down and he basically collapsed and let Brock do whatever. Cain did the same exact same thing but finished when Carwin gassed out. Really thought Cain would win if it got passed round 2 but wow he was even more impressive than I gave him credit for. The key for me was always whether Lesnar would be able to dominate him wrestling. Cain did excellent defending the takedown and just whooped Lesnar's ass.

    Excited for Cain-Dos Santos. Two of my favorite fighters so it will suck to see one lose. Again the key will be wrestling IMO. Cain probably will try to go straight to his bread and butter with ground and pound. Don't know if Dos Santos can stop that because Cain is just amazing wrestling. Dos Santos has the edge in striking though and probably has better jui jitsu(?).

    A lot of people I know thought he would win, myself included (granted, I always pick against Brock lmao).
