I thought it might go like this. But then I also thought that wrestling might be a bigger factor in the fight.
he just was won by luck to the Brock Lesnar dis is wat he capeable of
i m waiting 4 the fight when brock come back
i tot jds will be knocked out. unbelievable!
I was really disappointed by this fight, it was one that I wanted to see for a long time and it ended up being nothing. Hopefully these two meet up again somewhere down the road and make it a fight.
velasquez tried to come and fight with jds but come on its jds your only hope when ur in their with santos is to not get knocked out

The only reason you should be disappointed is if you are a Cain fan. It could had been anybody’s fight until he got caught with the punch. These are the risk you take when you choose to stand up and try to slug it out with a slugger!
At least you know who won.
Brock Lesnar will kill them all once he is done with Alistar…
Lesnar, the new Bob Sapp. Pathetic that so many people actually believed in this hyped up joke. Just look at the likes Overeem and Lesnar got. So many ignorant washed up kids getting fooled by american people in the entertainment business..
You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. OK I agree with Lesnar but your calling Overeem washed up!? It would be a TKO/KO victory for Overeem in the 2 round. Dude he’s a big threat to the HW division and personally I think he is more exciting to watch. I loved how he beat lesnar. Only thing better he should have knocked him but hey he’s saving that for dos santos.
JDS is a BEAST! there is no one that can stop him right now.
There is! Overeem! JDS just to scared to fight him!
That cross landed on the back of his neck. Like by the ear. Cain fell cause Santos either A- hit him in the brachial artery or B – Directly on the back of the head. I think that Herb shoulda stopped that earlier.
most of you have no idea about mma, that big monkey overeen has no chance against jds , junior will knock him out in the first round like he did to velazquez, just wait and see it.
All the comments about Lesnar beating any one of these guys IE: Dos Santos, Overeem, and Velasquez( who made a fool of Lesnar) should be wiped from this board. Are you really that ignorant?
