A healthy Cain is the GOAT IMO. But I think Fedor and Stipe will always be considered more so just purely because of the fact that they mostly could stay injury free something which Cain just had issues with

@@Eddy-dn1jx pretty much. I'm a truck driver and we do alot of repairs ourselves. A bad balljoint and faulty axle doesn't mean a vehicle is a lost cause.
(Prime )Cain vs (prime)fedor in the UFC, Cain wins! Cain vs fedor in pride with old school rules, I could see fedor winning that. The cage really does factor into it. Cain likes to smash people to the cage and grind them out, u can't do that on the ropes!
mark woo no, you’re the delusional one. Attend has fought the best of the best, legend says one of fedor’s nuts dropped off and went to live it’s on life to eventually grow into the GOAT
DC the greatest. His legacy will age like fine wine. No controversy, no asterisks; just the gamest, baddest man to do it. At 5'10 and in his late 30s how can you deny him. Natty GOAT
@mijitman926 I must be trippin. Did he take Jones mouth piece before or after he got head kicked and cried like a bitch? Or was it before or after he beat DCs ass convincingly after a week long coke binge 1st go round?
mijitman926 i think the point he was making is that the one DC punch to which you’re referring was inconsequential in the outcomes of their two fights, and fighting at heavyweight wouldn’t change much, if anything.
Lol Fedor wasn't old at all, he was 33 when he fought Werdum. Stipe is the champ and arguably in his prime (heavyweights have a late prime since they don't rely as much on speed and movement) and he is 37. And his biggest rival is 41, so I have no idea what you are talking about
@@benlewis5312 Not everyone ages at the same pace. Some fighters' skills drop significantly after 30, Fedor was one of them. I remember before the Arlovski fight (where he was outboxed for a couple minutes before sending Arlovski to the Shadowrealm) I read an interview with one of Fedor's coaches where he said Fedor couldn't do the same things in the gym that he used to, and that the end of his career might be looming. Sure enough, a couple years later he's getting knocked out by middleweight Dan Henderson, Gigantism victim Antonio Silva, and your fave fighter, Fabricio Scrubdum.
Greg Falco I have no love for Werdum, but Fedor didn’t get old. Worn out, sure. He was on an almost 10 year win streak, it’s completely understandable. And I’m sure he trained too hard. But he didn’t get too old, that’s ridiculous. Even Anderson Silva didn’t lose his belt until he was 38, and his entire style relies on fast reaction times and agile movements, both of which are hugely benefited by youth
@@benlewis5312 I feel like heavyweights have an earlier prime if anything. All that height and mass and so many more cells would mean a faster aging process.
@@benlewis5312 Anderson SIlva fell out of his prime years before he lost. Watch his early fights against good strikers like Lee Murray, Jorge Rivera, Tony Fryklund, Rich Franklin....his speed was insane. The headkicks he was catching Lee Murray with moved faster than the punches of most middleweights. By the time he fought Patrick Cote at 33, you could tell he had slowed down. That's why he started waving his opponents forward in those later fights, because he needed the other guy to come at him to catch them with a counter. When he was in his prime, it didn't matter if they were moving forward or backwards, he was fast enough to catch them either way. At least that's something non-cazzies would notice
Junior dos was my favorite back in the early 2000s, he beat cain that first time but the other times cain was just invincible, great guy outside of the ring as well. FREE CAIN
anderson silva will always be the goat in my mind idk why i just loved his technique an i know chuck wasnt the most technical but he was my second favorite fighter he had so much fucking heart its really hard to make a list of mma fighters, theres alot of legends
Francis didn't take many big shots in that fight but it shows how you can be mentally messed with after a bad fight. He held his own against Stipe but his weaknesses were exploited and it effected his mentality in his next fight
I think Cain gassed out in Mexico City due to altitude..he wasn't there long enough to get use to it. His opponent was there long before him to get use to it.
I like cain. In his prime he came at you 100% for the full 25 minutes. But stipe has beaten everyone that cain has lost to. Plus he’s knocked 2 of them out in one round. Cain good, but stipe goat.
I feel Cain is the best if he's 100 percent....his wrestling and boxing are way better then everyone else's no disrespect to stipe he's a monster first ever heavyweight to defend the belt 3 times. Would love to see Cain prime vs stipe now wooo what a war that be
I always thought he was the most athletic heavyweight too. He did a jumping armbar on some1 at one time in his career. Craziest thing I seen a heavyweight do.
Donald Cerrone has almost every UFC record to date but I don't think that makes Cerrone arguably the greatest p4p UFC fighter of all time or even the greatest UFC lightweight fighter of all time. Frank Mir got wrecked by JDS, dominated by Overeem, outclassed by DC, smashed by Carwin, steamrolled by Barnett and even got crushed by Lesnar in their rematch. Pretty much all of those fights mentioned were extremely lopsided losses for Frank Mir. I'm not counting Frank Mir's losses to Fedor, Hunt and Arlovski since he was way past his prime in those fights ( even though so were Fedor, Hunt and Arlovski themselves ). Sure, Frank Mir has some big wins at heavyweight like his wins over Big Nog ( twice), Cro Cop, Congo, Sylvia and Lesnar in their 1st fight but Frank Mir's several extremely lopsided losses against elite heavyweight competition outweighs his grand success at heavyweight. Frank Mir has been destroyed by top heavyweight fighters way too many times for him to be in the argument for being the heavyweight GOAT.
When I was in highschool, tattoos on guys always scared me at wrestling tournaments. That’s why he’s putting so much emphasis on the “brown pride” tattoo. It’s almost as if you feel like if they’re willing to take pain in order to put some pointless ink on their body, imagine what they’re willing to do to win
But if you don't fix it...and keep going the chain reaction of chaos that ensures... was the point....god mfers are dumb and pick apart anything to look cool.
@@joesheridan9451 With better fight iq & overall skillset. DC has beat guys much taller than him over his career. Actually DC is almost always the much shorter fighter & he still dominates.
I think so. He's far too cautious to get caught in Werdum's BJJ, and I could see him lighting up Cain the way he did Stipe since he matches him for wrestling and cardio.
Ball joints and axles are relatively easy fixes. Transmissions give me nightmares. Even if you switch in a "new" which is still remanufactured, they're never as good.
Cain Velasquez measured by “skills” was undoubtedly very very great. But, by resume, I really don’t think he’s in the heavyweight GOAT conversation. Am I crazy?
No, I completely agree. At his best I’d pick him up near them all, but he never got the opportunity to because he couldn’t stay healthy for long enough. Real shame.
I'm Mexican and back up Cain to the fullest but Fedor in Pride was a foo...so was my favorite fighter CroCop, they literally were number one and 2 in the world
Werdum is an awsum practitioner maybe the best ! But that being said he wont ever beat cain again. Cain kinda beat himself by being unprepared. Fedor was on his way out should have stopped then .i got cain all tut he way... but ... fedor may have him beat just on his body of work. I think cain would beat him obviously now an in his prime. Stiepe got that far because he never faced cain. Real talk. Cain was untouchable best ever. Hope hes the same.
Werdum had too many losses where he was underwhelming. The Overeem fight was disastrous for Werdum, as was the Stipe fight. I think it comes down to Werdum not having the same presence as Cain or Fedor.
The young and healthy Cain Velasquez was an unstoppable juggernaut With battering rams in his gloves A chin made of granite And the type of cardio that makes TJ Dillashaw pop for E.P.O.

@@bradhefty6744 "KO'd"....back then a KO of Hunt was a big deal!....before that I think he was only KO'd by JDS and Melvin!
Tony Ferguson the type of dude to ask himself for an interview
I like cain. In his prime he came at you 100% for the full 25 minutes.
But stipe has beaten everyone that cain has lost to. Plus he’s knocked 2 of them out in one round.
Cain good, but stipe goat.
truth
Wow can't believe he mentioned Juan archuleta, went to high school with that guy. So crazy
joe” cain DMT velasquez “ rogan
Damn ..a shot out to the Lions Den...Jerry Bohlander ,Old school Shamrock and those boys...all meat head style training ...way back!
Stipe??? He’s the greatest HW ever !
Nope lol
I feel Cain is the best if he's 100 percent....his wrestling and boxing are way better then everyone else's no disrespect to stipe he's a monster first ever heavyweight to defend the belt 3 times. Would love to see Cain prime vs stipe now wooo what a war that be
Just add the durability of Ferguson and Cain is unstoppable. He had it all, his body gave up on him...
How about Frank Mir?? Has almost every UFC heavyweight record to date
Justin Gray and he came back after a horrible motorcycle accident and became champ again I think
I always thought he was the most athletic heavyweight too. He did a jumping armbar on some1 at one time in his career. Craziest thing I seen a heavyweight do.
He loss to DC, and Fedor
Donald Cerrone has almost every UFC record to date but I don't think that makes Cerrone arguably the greatest p4p UFC fighter of all time or even the greatest UFC lightweight fighter of all time.
Frank Mir got wrecked by JDS, dominated by Overeem, outclassed by DC, smashed by Carwin, steamrolled by Barnett and even got crushed by Lesnar in their rematch. Pretty much all of those fights mentioned were extremely lopsided losses for Frank Mir.
I'm not counting Frank Mir's losses to Fedor, Hunt and Arlovski since he was way past his prime in those fights ( even though so were Fedor, Hunt and Arlovski themselves ).
Sure, Frank Mir has some big wins at heavyweight like his wins over Big Nog ( twice), Cro Cop, Congo, Sylvia and Lesnar in their 1st fight but Frank Mir's several extremely lopsided losses against elite heavyweight competition outweighs his grand success at heavyweight. Frank Mir has been destroyed by top heavyweight fighters way too many times for him to be in the argument for being the heavyweight GOAT.
@@MrPjspacejam u had me in the beginning, but hes top 5 period.
When I was in highschool, tattoos on guys always scared me at wrestling tournaments. That’s why he’s putting so much emphasis on the “brown pride” tattoo. It’s almost as if you feel like if they’re willing to take pain in order to put some pointless ink on their body, imagine what they’re willing to do to win
That's the dumbest fucking shit I've ever heard.
Buffoonus Troglodytus I know it is. Which is why I always look back on it like “what the fuck was I even thinking?” Lmao
I heard Jack Swagger beat Cain twice in college
I straightened my spine hearing spine stuff in the video.
Ball joints , easy fix
I was thinking the same thing. Lmao
But if you don't fix it...and keep going the chain reaction of chaos that ensures... was the point....god mfers are dumb and pick apart anything to look cool.
1. Tank Abbott
2. Don Predator Frye
3. The Smashing Machine
4. Fedor
5. Cain Velasquez
6. Bob Sapp
7. Stipy Miochichk
8. Gerard Gordeau
9. Chris Tuchscherer
10. Brock Lesnar
Cormier is one of the most underrated fighters ever! I'm taking Cormier over Cain or Werdum if they fought, anyday.
But he’s basically a smaller less powerful version of cain
@@joesheridan9451 With better fight iq & overall skillset.
DC has beat guys much taller than him over his career. Actually DC is almost always the much shorter fighter & he still dominates.
Cormier admitted he couldn’t beat Cain in his prime
I think so. He's far too cautious to get caught in Werdum's BJJ, and I could see him lighting up Cain the way he did Stipe since he matches him for wrestling and cardio.
@@gabrielarce6337 Not so much an admission as him being humble out of respect to a very close friend.
That fuzz on ya shirt got me wiping my phone.. that .4 dab fooked me
To me Fedor and DC are the best Heavyweights of all time
Bones jones needs to move up to hw
@@gogo-yh5cq He's not called Bones for nothing. He doesn't have enough of a frame to build up to heavyweight, look how skinny his legs are.
@@Uxoriouswidow
Because he doesn't squat enough.
Rakishi is number one in my book
But even DC says he cant beat cain.
Ball joints and axles are relatively easy fixes. Transmissions give me nightmares. Even if you switch in a "new" which is still remanufactured, they're never as good.
Stipe if by far the best heavyweight ever....
Without question
Nah
I think Dc And Cain. Are the 🐐 and Stipe.
Cain Velasquez measured by “skills” was undoubtedly very very great. But, by resume, I really don’t think he’s in the heavyweight GOAT conversation. Am I crazy?
No, I completely agree. At his best I’d pick him up near them all, but he never got the opportunity to because he couldn’t stay healthy for long enough. Real shame.
Cain Velasquez is a beast 🔥
I didn’t lose Tj Dicklashaw!!
tight
*lose
Fedor was undefeated for 10 years in pride. Nobody went undefeated in pride yet fedor did it in his prime.
How is stipe not the best 🤔
Trammel Maycan
Bcuz Dana don't like him... and will not give him a rematch against DC to prove himself...
I'm Mexican and back up Cain to the fullest but Fedor in Pride was a foo...so was my favorite fighter CroCop, they literally were number one and 2 in the world
Werdum got very lucky in both the Cain and Fedor fights
He has better jui jitsu then both of them , that’s skill not luck
very luck? he's just got the best jiu jitsu in the heavyweight division
Werdum is an awsum practitioner maybe the best ! But that being said he wont ever beat cain again. Cain kinda beat himself by being unprepared. Fedor was on his way out should have stopped then .i got cain all tut he way... but ... fedor may have him beat just on his body of work. I think cain would beat him obviously now an in his prime. Stiepe got that far because he never faced cain. Real talk. Cain was untouchable best ever. Hope hes the same.
Cain got beat!
Werdum had too many losses where he was underwhelming. The Overeem fight was disastrous for Werdum, as was the Stipe fight. I think it comes down to Werdum not having the same presence as Cain or Fedor.
Can’t wait to see Cain fight in Phoenix Arizona
here's a fun game: spot the inland taipan in the video.
Copper head
Rattle Snake
Only see a snake in the grass 😂
Black mamba
Snake with no rattle
Remember when Lennox Lewis lost to Rahman? - altitude
Cain losing to Werdum - altitude
Do it again in Vegas or something and see what happens
agreed
