Cain Velasquez

Cain Velasquez is the Arizona State wrestler and son of a Mexican immigrant who became the UFC’s most relentless heavyweight. He pounded out Brock Lesnar in 2010 to win the title, lost it to Junior dos Santos in 64 seconds in 2011, then won it back with a five-round beating in 2012 and repeated the dose in their third fight.

Injuries wrecked the rest of his career, and he lost the belt to Fabrício Werdum in Mexico City in 2015 before retiring in 2019 and moving into pro wrestling with AAA and WWE. CagePotato covered the dos Santos trilogy and his long list of injuries.
