Cain vs. Bigfoot
Cain Wins - TKO (Punches) Rd. 1
Kind of a weak stoppage compared to other fights that refs let go A LOT longer earlier in the night, but that's how it goes.
Please no JDS/Cain 3.
Bigfoot is hands down the most inconsistent, ranked fighter ever.
Beats Arlovski then narrowly escapes being KO'd by LHW Pyle to come back and get the TKO win. Then he absolutely murders Fedor, only to then be absolutely destroyed by Cormier. Then Cormier's teammate Cain destroys him in his UFC debut. Then Bigfoot beats Browne by TKO and then upsets the K-1 GP champ/Linear UFC & PRIDE HW champ and #3 ranked HW Overeem by brutal KO. And now this.
It's like one step forward, two steps back.
JDS is the #1 contender and the former champ. Who else should leap frog him into a title shot? No one else in the HW division has better wins against ranked fighters besides the champ himself, Cain. They each have a win over the other, it's the only fight that makes sense.
arlovski was already in his "scared and glass chin" phase. he got fedor because of the size disparity not his skills and fedor was declining already. if you remember, browne hyper extended his knee in the fight so he could not move when he got hit. overeem was just being a cocky douche in round 3. big foot was never a top fighter, just a very lucky one which gave the illusion that he was capable against top fighters.
Looks like the kick barely even grazes him, but I'm sure even that would knock anybody on their butts.
This is what set it up:
He was already rocked before the Capoeira kick. If not for that, Hunt probably could've taken it without budging.
JDS and Hunt got an extra 50K for fight of the night. Glover got 50K for sub of the night and TJ Grant got 50K for KO of the night.
