Cain Velasquez: Quickness, cardio and distance the keys to beating Brock Lesnar at UFC 121

Cain Velasquez talks about his upcoming title fight with Brock Lesnar at UFC 121 in Anaheim, California.

VIDEO Cain Velasquez Says “I Have to Use My Quickness”

Quickness, Cardio, Distance - Great review by "Puck Head"

1) Quickness – Well Cain is a little lighter on his feet, when Brock decides to moves he is fast and even Cain is not quick enough.

2) Cardio – Both fighters have great cardio, neither has been proven after three rounds. I would have to say physically you would think Cain’s would be better but will this fight go past 3 even if it is? I doubt it.
3) Distance -Brock has a 4" reach advantage, but Cain does use his stand up better I can see Cain using a Edgar like attack and get out tactic but against another wrestler he may be in trouble especially with Brocks explosiveness, and if he gets caught Brock has the power to at least daze Cain.

In this fight it kind of does resemble a Edgar(Cain) vs Maynard(Brock) fight. Edgar having the better stand up and good grappling vs Maynard the stronger grappler add KO power to both fighters and with everything said this fight will come down to who can get who down and ground and pound. My money is on Brock.
