I think Cain will dominate again but I'm kind of rooting for JDS to keep things interesting. I know Cain will dominate every HW out there. He'll be for yet another title match. JDS though I can see losing to a few HWs. JDS will stay elite for a long time but I see Cain becoming Fedor-level dominant for a long time.

but they were 2 totally different fights with different scenarios leading/outcomes :why:

Same fighters, same fight, different result thats all. 1st fight JDS caught Cain early wit dat shot and it was done even b4 it started. 2nd fight Cain slipped da shot and got off 1st. Just because the result was different doesnt mean it was a different fight. It's still the wrestler vs the boxer, who ever gets off 1st wins. Thats how I see the fight.

How long can JDS sprawl and stay off the cage or mat? How long can Cain rotate away from JDS' power and stay outside JDS' range and slip back and forth in to dirty box and grapple with JDS before wearing him out to score the take down.

the out of cage stuff played a role in the style cain adopted in the 1st fight, hence why i said different fight.

jds aint ever going to wear a healthy cain down the 2nd fight is exactly how things play out when everything is square (dont care about jds's fables)

I just found it a bit of an oxymoron to say this 3rd fight is the same fight as the first 2.Yeah styles make fights and as u say its still wrestler vs striker but their were variables in the 1st fight which were visibly evident.2nd fight told us everything we needed.

We'll find out tonight tho :ld:

Never said JDS will wear Cain down. I was talking about Cain wearing down JDS. 1st fight Cain got caught, you can talk about things happening outside the ring or what ever, but sometimes none of that matters and a dude jus gets caught.

Both fighters went into the first fight injured. Nice try though.

JDS won the first fight fair and square and Cain won the second fight fair and square.
