Cain's Win Proved NOTHING

[javierm79]

Kongo is a world-class heavy weight striker. Of course Cain's stand-up is gonna look bad next to his. And Kongo probably hits as hard as any heavy so I don't exactly see how that means Cain has a weak chin. I don't think anyone else in the UFC will catch him with that kind of accuracy and power. With that being said. I'm convinced Cain is the real fucking deal.

Agreed.

man theres so many haters in this thread. give cain some credit. nobody thought he would win this fight. first the haters say "omfg kongo will destroy cain. cain has no chance" now its "oh this proves nothing. everybody knew chieck couldnt wrestle" you guys are sour pussies

[Vagabundo]

Cain haters are cowards. Everytime I called them out for a sig/avitar bet they quited the fuk up.

I think it proved that Kongo's wrestling is so useless he can still manage to lose a fight where he batters his opponent standing.

cain looks stiff on his feet, he moves awkward. he was litreally out cold in the first 10 seconds of the 1st round

lol I would've thought you'd be crying for at least a couple of days after seeing Kongo get raped so bad.

but oh well, at least you're attempting to discredit Cain like a true hater should. Keep it up.

Some people just expect too much. Cain has 6 fights, yes people SIX fights and despite dominating a legit contender in his division he's seen as weak? or an average fighter? even as someone who doubted kongo's ability to be a champion i still see this as a huge victory for cain. a comparable win in my book is Brock's win over Heath Herring, while Herring is no Demian Maia he is an experienced mixed martial artist who has had many fights, the way Lesnar came in and dominated was very impressive even if he didn't out box or out strike Herring. Same goes for Cain. Kongo has over 20 MMA fights and pro kickboxing experience, he is one of the most feared strikers in the heavyweight division...Cain meanwhile had 5 (now 6) fights and came from a wrestling background, how the fuck do you expect him to dominate on the feet? Because Joe Rogan hyped him up in his last win and made him out to be the heir to Semmy Schilt's throne??? The guy has a great chin, clearly as he took a few bombs from Kongo and not only survived but went on the offense immediately with takedowns. He picked Kongo up and slammed him multiple times, dragged him around and out clinched him the entire fight yet still looked like he had a few more rounds in the tank. Considering his biggest test so far (in my opinion) came against Jake O'Brien I think this was a massive step up for Cain and while he hit a few speed bumps along the way he showed he is a better MMA fighter than Checik Kongo and deserves to be considered in the top 10 UFC heavyweights. If a title shot comes his way don't expect him to pass it up, who would? But don't for one minute think this guy is gonna stop evolving, title shot or not Cain is one of the brightest talents in the sport and the people who shit on him are frankly dickheads who have no sense. There you go, rant over.

I agree

I think the only thing that fight proved was that Cain punches like a girl and has a glass jaw.

Kongo has no grappling skills whatsoever but we all knew that.
