Cain was like the Terminator, he wouldn't stop until he finished you.
Peak Cain may have been the best heavywieght ever
Nah Francis, aspinall and fedor clear
Def cain
@@HiredGoon101you coulda just said you have no clue what u are talking about
@@victorfraire1627 “peak cain” most overrated fighter oat. Francis knocked some sense into him and jds who cain lost to
**sea level Cain
AKA was known to go hard 24/7, reason fighters were always injured.
"I'm surprised you guys were always so heathy" lol this f-king guy. Like he has no idea what happened to Cain's career.
Your spot on. I heard coach Javier talking about this. Things have improved since then. According to Jav, they started communicating better about injuries to mitigate things now. you can only do so much with a room full of killers I guess
They produced many champions and created the modern-day cage wrestling meta. Must have been doing something right.
I still remember the workout of Cain doing those dumbbells lifts and the leg routines... Now i know why Cain was injured all the time.
Not just that. Whoever Cain's strength and conditioning coach was, he was woefully under qualified. I've seen videos of Cain doing exercises with free weights and dumbbells where it literally looks like he's trying to injure himself. It's no wonder his career was held back, and cut short, by injuries if you see the way he was doing s&c routines.
Chuck Lidell’s takedown defense is insane.
No it wasn’t, Rampage did it with ease.
@@CB-gr2gxyour mom did it with ease
Yeah rampage had chucks number
@@CB-gr2gx”with ease” rampage went for two takedowns and got stuffed on the first attempt.
@@CB-gr2gx no it definitely was very good.. just because someone unlocked the code doesn't mean it was easy for everyone else...
Man, Luke Rockhold doesn't sound awkward here. I'm proud! 👍
he's probably either got social anxiety or is on the spectrum
regardless he's truly an incredibly beautiful looking man just model level
@@bingbong2257 Nah I think the camera made him nervous. When he was wasn't in a tense media situation he always seemed normal, even charismatic.
@@bingbong2257check out his strikeforce interviews.
I remember when I was a teenager first getting into MMA, one of the first things I learned back then was how good chuck lidell was with “wrestling in reverse “, meaning defending takedowns and sprawl and brawl. Joe Rogans analysis used to blow my young mind.
Bear not knowing how hard AKA trained back in the day. Khabib almost retired because of injuries while Cain and Luke constantly dealt with injuries
True, they had a lot of back problems especially. Cain, DC, Luke etc. Where does that come from? The wrestling i'd imagine right?
@@iker8010 The training in weight lifting too, people hated AKA so much for that. I remember seeing Cain with the very heavy kettlebell being instructed to some close to tony ferguson type of training, the type that screams injuries incoming.
@@Hunyango_007 I just watched the kettlebell swing with 200lbs video and I was cringing the whole time. Way to destroy a career.
There was a video from mmadigest showing WWE Hardcore matches ( Undertaker Mankind Hell in a Cell) as "Training at AKA". 😂
@@Hunyango_007never big fan of kettlebell and CrossFit training myself
Luke actually does well when he’s around guys like himself. It’s just when he’s being thrown in the spotlight he goes straight acoustic
Like an "Acoustic" guitar right!!
I try & describe him to new fans .. theres alot of things about him. His cardio, fluid punches, above average kicks, wrestling. Overall movement & speed too
I agree with everything except the kicks, they were average af.
The craziest thing sbout Cain is that physically he doesn't look like the sterereotype of a fighter but he was very skillful and athletic.
Cardio, tight striking, technical wrestling and warrior mentality
Huh? He's a cholo and has a "Brown Pride" tattoo. He most certainly looks like a fighter.
U must haven’t seen Cain physique in real life 😂😂😂😂he’s bigger than he looks on tv
@@user-Tripleggggggg yeah but he looked chubby and with a little dad bod yet very athletic and skillful
@@crazypato3752 THE EXACT SAME PHYSIQUE AS FEDOR
@@user-Tripleggggggg true..his head is big
Sea level cain vs 2003 fedor. Would have been epic.
I'd take prime Fedor. That handspeed just too much.
Cain, Dc, Rockhold all champs at sametime... AKA
I believe Cain lost his title shortly before DC & Luke won theirs, but it was the same year.
Prime sea level Cain beats every man to compete imo! What’s scary is he could probably have made 205 imo!
On a lighter note I sparred Rampage back in the day and felt the same thing! Folks forget Rampage was a monster…(dropped me with a body shot if anyone was wondering) 😅
Motivated BJ > Sea Level Cain > Atheist Rory

Short notice Leben beats them all
@BrigateDorcol
Some smart alec always has to come along and mention short notice Leben....
"What do you think about Cain?"
"Matt Lindland STINKS!"
This dude said AKA is a pretty healthy team 🤣🤣🤣
💉💉💉💉💉
Cain should receive a pardon from Trump and be appointed to lead Santa Clara County. I was born there and I don't like all of the restrictions and mandates they pushed during covid.
Yes!!
I bet that request has reached Trump already. Honestly I’d be surprised if Trump didn’t.
Chump hates Hispanic people
A friend of mine had Cain as a teacher for a week, and he says he's the scariest fighter he's ever seen; in his prime, he was a beast.
Prime Cain was the perfect heavyweight, he had savage wrestling and grappling, he had very good boxing and defense.
Cain's the Greatest HW Ever, No one could live with that pace/skill. Never seen before/after.
If Cain didnt drop Lidell on his head it was out of respect not lack of ability
Fr Liddell sounding like hogan over here
Nah Chuck was him
@copyninja8756 rampage took liddel down.Cain would have no problem.
People forget peak chuck was that dude! Always went fir the kill
Cain is never mentioned in the GOAT debate. Shows the recency bias amongst most MMA fans.
I still say prime Cain was the greatest heavyweight in ufc history. His prime was just cut short by constant injuries.
💯 I always believed the same
Watching Cain beat the piss out of Ben Rothwell has been the only fight that made me want to call the police, just looked absolutely illegal what was happening lol
Lmao, I used to call him Cain "Pain" Velasquez because it looked so painful fighting him. I remember when junior fought him and juniors jaw was hanging to one side with blood all over his face 😂
People compared cain to khabib but khabib could do no where near as much damage as cain did. It's not usual to get wrestlers who can do that much damage with ground and pound
😂😂😂😂
When he fought Brock I was Soo surprised at how good he was
Didn't big Ben drop cain a few times in between clinch takedowns? That's a fight I e not seen since it was live I'd say
@@dcarson89 I feel like he might have clipped him, don't know about putting him down
Cain was the best HW next to Ngannou and Stipe. Prime Cain vs Prime Ngannou or Prime Stipe would've been an insane match up
Cain vs Stipe up to the first Miocic vs Dos Santos fight = Cain wins.
Prime Cain vs Stipe after JDS one = Stipe wins.
@@joshuaalach9431I think Cain was more intimidating but Stipe from 2015-2020 was the greatest hw champion era, Stipe was untouchable.
Sea level cain vs jon Jones it's my dream
Fedor still better, but Cain is a close second
Cain wasnt the same after werdum subs his ass
great to hear from luke and stipe
Cain fought with a level of tenacity that is rarely seen in MMA. He would literally go after guys like an attack dog. My favourite heavyweight ever for sure.
Luke could out range DC because DC is short, lacks reach, not a skill issue. The idea that DC couldn't do much on the ground so Luke could stand back up sounds suspicious as heck.
Exactly my reaction. I´ll leave it at that.
Luke’s jiu-jitsu is high-level. Buchecha said that Luke was really tough for him.
DC as team captain and the heavier man must have been “letting him work.”
"Awww I be doobie luby BRUH AWWW BRUH he be lyin BRUH AWWWWWWWW 🤬"
WARS WITH CAIN. Never forgetty!
Why is Chuck so insecure? He always has to be the ultimate badass in his stories.
Prime Chuck was the ultimate badass.
@@fredfred4086very true 😎👊
He's old and getting older. He's broken down. Based off the last Tito fight I'd say most athletic 20-30 year old men could beat him up.
All of that's tough when you were one of the baddest men on the planet 20 years ago.
because at his prime he WAS the ultimate bad ass.
"Insecure"? He sounds very secure. He told how a beginning Cain couldn't take down a probably prime Chuck.
Just sounds like you're angry about it and ultimately the insecure one.
First time I’m ever seen Cain was vs Brock Lesnar when he beat Brock for the belt. Even before then I was a huge fan, picking him in ufc undisputed 3. Dude is a legend and the reason I even got into the ufc
Cain couldve fought at 205 if he wanted to but i recall him and Cormier had an agreement that each wouldnt fight at the others division.
Never been a heavyweight with cains pace or cardio, dude would just pressure you until you started to fade and then finish you.
Love Cain great no doubt , but when Francis used that upper cut on Allister, I thought that dude actually was going to die
1. Peak Fedor
2. Peak Cain
Sea-Level Cain was an unstoppable monster. It is such a shame he and Fedor never crossed paths. Thanks Dana.
Chuck: Cain never took me down or couldn’t take me down!!! Really though Chuck? lol oookkayyy
Every one that chills with Craig jones has the sniffles 🤧
I'm not surprised AKA had the reputation for being injury merchants. Instead of rehabing, injured guys were active in the gym getting pushed to their limits.
Cain Velasquez is the best sparring partner to have if you are training for fight of your life🎉
When i think of UFC fighter Chuck is the first person that comes to mind
CAIN VELASQUEZ VS JOHN JONES💯💯💯
couldnt take chuck down , how unexpected to hear chuck say that about cain
to be fair though chuck had amazing takedown defense. think the only time i’ve ever seen him taken down and controlled was the first couture fight and i think
he was dealing with a health issue
I'd hate to fight some stinky dude 😅
@@justinrogers5288 Rampage took him down and controlled him too in the first Pride fight
@@justinrogers5288rampage took him down a lot in pride way before that
@@justinrogers5288 Chuck is full of ish. He also thinks he could beat Jones.
Cain and junior dos santos is the one of the greatest rivalry in ufc
Luke shifted, he doesn't sound awkward anymore but looks weird...
Cain was just fucking everything hahha what a line
Cain and Fedor emelianenko are arguably the best ever
Cain in the conversation for best heavyweight ever! Father time does no jobs!
Chuck is insecure. Cain ate him alive with ease.
Couldn't take him down though.
Yeah I don't believe that, your telling me a division 1 ncaa , who was young at the time couldn't take hime down once .... bullshit .....
Chuck also thought he could beat a prime Jon Jones when he was out of shape and retired.
Cain was basically Aspinal 2.0 better in every way tbh
Nah both have similar speed but aspinall is a lot bigger and cains wrestling was 10 times better than aspinalls. Very very different fighters really
Two very different styles imo.
If I had to pick a fighter from the past that reminds me of Aspinall it would be a mix between Arlovski and Mir
Nah man Aspinall has way more technical striking. They're really not much alike, as fighters.
@@petermatthews2831I agree aside from the speed. Aspinall's hand speed and explosiveness is on another level.
Aspinall is for SURE Frank Mir 2.0 holy damn 😂
Same size…
BJJ black belts only Frank had better takedowns and a real slick ground game where he was tapping out black belts as a brown belt…
Tom once won a BJJ tournament in the UK as a brown belt 😅
So yeah, Frank had the edge on grappling but Tom has better movement in the feet than Frank…
Other than that they are the same guy holy fu@k 😅
Sea Level Cain 💪
Cain had a universal strategy against every opponent: "if he dies - he dies" 😅😂
God was he ever a machine.
People talking about Stipe as greatest, yet we never saw these two guys fighting at their prime. I would bet my house on Cain!
Liddell says Cain couldn't take him down.
Sports science tested Cain's cardio. He had the cardio of a marathon runner. Just doesn't get tired
Most of the Mexican have the best cardio, we might not be muscular or big, but the biggest hearths and cardio, look at Kevin gastelum too.
@Dice-b4p Cain is huge, too
Peak Cain was the best p4p, besides Demetrius Johnson
Cain is a real dad! Free Cain
Luke , Craig said he’s down at the pool !
The HW GOAT!
Prime Cain was like a pitbull
I don't believe Chuck at all. Cain 💯 took him down
How can it be that the supposed "nicest guys in the world" are all big, scary men that see red?
Chuck stop the cap. We know Cain would whoop you eazy.
The fedor that fought cro cop in pride over anyone
Hello Chuck Hello Mr. Santa Cruz
Prime Chuck vs Prime Luke, who wins?
Chuck duh
Rockhold
Prob Chuck
Different weight classes
Prime Luke
Uuuf the best ...Cain
Is Chuck really saying Cain couldn’t take him down
lol at people saying nganou.who did nganou fought that isnt a should be retired 40 year old HW.look at his resume
You know Cain was going easy on uncle chuck
Would like to see prime Cain vs aspinall now
The game has advanced a lot since Caine! Aspinal is also a lot bigger and more athletic, and just a more advanced fighter then Caine. Guys today are of a different level then 15 years ago when Caine was top dog.
@ but everyone says Cain was best ever… I think it’s aspinall. Time will tell,
@@andrewrai5752 You don't know jack shit about MMA. Just 🤫
Jon jones vs sea level cain velasquez 2025
Cain couldn't take Chuck down?? Yeah right. Cain would drive Chuck through a wall.
For me prime Cain is the greatest of all time. Too bad about his injuries.
Cain Velasquez is the heavy weight GSP but with a evil/mean streak lol
healthy Cain beats everyone
Chuck here hyping himself again lol Cain took him down
Cain was the best HW . Injuries killed his career
Cain couldn't Ever perform like he did when he was on TRT
He took down Brock Lesnar and JDS, but not chuck.
Sea Level Cain the best Cain
Chuck saying that cain couldnt take him down is such BS, especially at that time period too. His brain was so fucked, the guy needs a nurse to help him go to the toilet. Dont believe for a second that cain couldnt take him down.
Sea level Cain is unbeatable LMFAO
Cain imo was good but not the best ever
Prime Cain was one of the best. Fedor was the best ever. Cain wasn't consistent enough, unfortunately. It would have been good to see him have a better run.
@@fredfred4086 IMO CAIN WAS BETTER IN ALMOST EVERY ASPECT OF MMA. CAIN HAD BETTER STRIKING STAMINA, WRESTLING AND DEFENSE THAN FEDOR.\. ALL THE INJURIES AND LONG LAYOFFS DUE TO HIS INJURIES AFFECTED HIS PERFORMANCE IN THE LATTER PART OF HIS MMA CAREER.
The Heavyweight Division be it MMA or Boxing always catches flack. The big boys lack this and that. I get it that said.
Prime Cain
Prime Mike Tyson
Prime Stipe
Cassius Clay/Ali
Prime Fedor
Prime Holyfield
Prime Captain America
Prime Holmes
Even the big boys of today Fury & Aspinall
These guys no matter the weight class are as talented as any man in the ring or the cage.
Fair comment. The big boys, with their power, can KO any opponent on a good day. That's what makes it so remarkable when a heavyweight has a 10 year undefeated record. Not many of those guys.
prime Cain takes anyone... maybe even jon jones
⚡️⚡️⚡️🩸🩸🩸🇲🇽🩸🩸🩸⚡️⚡️⚡️
Any sport is about full blown balance. No what ifs, no in there prime, no if he wouldn’t have gotten injured….its pretty much just creating a robot at this point. Cain just didn’t take care of his body enough to be the best. If he can’t fight cus he’s injured, the other guy is better because he’s not injured. Simple as that.
Sorry.
Sea level cain
Chuck always capping bro 😅
Cain only flaw was his body breaking down on him he was scary for real… and Dana doing his best not to promote him (the whole brown pride comment thing)
Luke is a great fighter just some injuries plaqued him always at time of fights.
He can go back to UFC and still be greatest.
Its brutal life a Profesional fighter.
Worse smell is good to distract opponents 😅
So much CTE in the same room.. This isn't supposed to be an insult either.. I feel sorry for them.. Hopefully the future is OK
Did we forget what JDS did to peak Cain?
First match and landed a lucky shot. Do you remember what Cain did to him the next 2 matches? 😂 no mas I believe jds said in the last fight
Exactly what happened, Cain beat the fighter out of him, it was sad to watch.
It's mma.Every fighters gets caught and loses in mma.
Had Shane Carwin had better cardio he was dangerous, Cain, Francis scary guys
Prime Cain beat jones easy.
Rockhold nver really peaked..
Luke hates to admit defeat. DC was definitely a better wrestler than Cain, but yet he "couldn't do much" with Rockhold.... Ok, got it, Luke.🤦🏾♂️😁🤣
Whos the clown in purple
Chuck is so full of shit, he says the same thing about Tito. Apparently he doesn’t seem overly fond of Mexican fighters, but we all know, including himself that Cain would have wrecked his ass even at his best!!
Lmao man gotta do a small amount of research before these pods. Most of them were injured most of the time!
Cain Velasquez lost his prime in the gym
Luke kod by Bisping, so so embarrassing
