Werdum should have defended already. I hate how Cain is still holding the division up when he isn't even champ

Interesting. Guess they couldn't get Jones ready in time for this card. Perhaps that fight'll get pushed to Brazil the following month.

Would prefer to see Velasquez vs Rothwell 2 over Velasquez vs Werdum 2.

Cain shouldn't have a rematch. Real tired of him and his pudgy life partner Daniel Cormier.

Can deserves the same opportunity to have years taken off his life that he afforded Cigano.
Seriously. I just want to see Werdum beat his *** again.

In fairness it's not like we've seen him in years. just that brief cameo to lose his belt and then not again till 2016.

Yes....that is EXACTLY why he doesn't deserve s---. What if he wins and can't fight for a year again? f--- that, f--- anyone who made the call for this fight and f--- anyone who supports it

Wouldn't go that far.
But gawdam, there are so many other fights to make for Velasquez:
Barnett
Arlovski
Stipe
Overeem

They are 100% saving Cormier vs. Jones 2 for the April 23rd New York card.

could be. but risky. almost 7 months away and no guarantees.
better off have dc and jones fight asap and if all goes well have winner v rumble/bader. itll sell either way, if ny is indeed a go.

I blame the UFC for this fight taking so long. Cain wanted to fight in October & Werdum wanted to fight in December.

Cain will pull out. DJ will headline. Card will bomb.

I still don't get the matchmaking for this fight. Did ANYONE call for an immediate rematch? Or think that Cain deserved one after getting destroyed?

For the love of all that's holy! So long as the fight happens early in the year and the winner fights again in the same year. When was the last time a HW champ fought more than once in a year? When was the last time the HW champ was not in a rematch?

After Werdum beats Cain again in the rematch...
