Cain Velasquez defends the Heavyweight title!
Mike's not going to be happy at me for saying this...but I wanted Brock to win
Brock was getting the (much) better of Cain via very effective Takedowns and GnP. Cain has MASSIVE stamina, so I was interested to see how this would pan out long-term if he could survive Brock's onslaught. But then Cain went ape-shit on the elbows, and got a flash KO. Even after that elbows form hell onslaught, Brock was still in a better position, health-bar-wise. But alas, just like the Hansen fight, a flash KO is a ko....
