    Cain is the best heavyweight of all time, and there isn't a single fighter who I'd 'cap at less than +300 against him. I thought we were past the point of questioning him.

    Nice work.

    I usually love Cerrone. Trust me. I am a huge fan of Cerrone's and pick him quite often.

    I just thought Edson was going to get the better of the exchanges tonight and took Edson at -110.
    Cerrone proved me wrong with his amazing abilities. Guy is a machine.

    Im not discrediting him or his ability. Hes a good fighter but I just think hes benefiting from a lack of top tier competition, aside from Junior. Antonio Silva, Brock, and big nog are the other meaningful wins. Obviously you have to be good to beat those guys, but not the greatest of all time.

    Out of curiosity, who would you put behind cain, and in what order?

    Hey miserable krakerfukker, I was having a discussion about the fights. By no means am I looking for attention in a thread in which I told the OP that I follow his picks from time to time. If you want to feud, we can do it elsewhere, dont contaminate this thread with your garbage. Take care.

    Actually missed when he was +115.
    Cerrone was the fav to start. Money came in on Barboza.

    Cain > Fedor > Nogueira > Dos Santos > Cro Cop.

    Fedor's résumé is more impressive than Cain's, currently, but the difference in skill and ability is too big for me to ignore. Fedor is as skilled and well rounded as fighters get, but Cain's game is too overwhelming; he may not have the grace or fundamental technique of Fedor, but his effectiveness is on an entirely different level. When it comes to clinching against the fence, he's the best I've ever seen, and certainly ranks highly in wrestling and cardio, also. His striking isn't elite in a technical sense, but it's extremely effective when combined with his clinch and takedown game.

    No way DC is more than a +300 dog against Cain, you're dreaming.

    Cain's cardio is unlike any other fighters ever. He brings such an amazing intensity non stop that I believe the only way to beat him is finish him early. HW's tire easily yet that is a major strength of his.
