In an interview with MMA Fighting , UFC heavyweight Cain Velasquez talked about his UFC career and a future fight with Brock Lesnar. on where he fits into the heavyweight rankings: I’m not sure. I think I’m up there. We’ve got to see what happens with Frank Mir fighting Shane Carwin this month, but I think I’m right up there, and depending on what happens when they fight, I might be next in line for the heavyweight title. on his readiness for Brock Lesnar: Yes. I’m ready. I think I’ve been ready for a while. The way this sport works is you’ve just got to prove yourself when you get the chance. I want to fight the best so I can be the best. on his gameplan in a fight with Brock: I think I’d have to wear him out for the first two or three rounds, because he’s so big and strong. I’d need to be weary of him at the beginning. on Mir vs. Carwin: I think it’s an interesting fight, they’re very well matched. Mir has the better jiu jitsu game, both guys have power on their feet, both guys have good positional wrestling. It’s hard to say who will win but I think Mir always comes out with a great game plan and I think he really has that going for him. What Carwin can do is knock you out and that makes him dangerous, too. on the popularity of mma vs boxing for hispanics: Yes, I went down to Mexico and did some media and met with some people, and they’re really getting into it. Not everyone knows about the UFC yet, but the people who do are real ...

Quote: Saturday night (Sunday afternoon in Australia) was a coming out party of sorts for undefeated heavyweight Cain Velasquez. At UFC 110, Cain put his striking on display becoming just the second fighter to stop PrideFC and UFC legend Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira. Cain knocked Nogueira out at the 2:20 mark of the very first round. If you’re a hard core fan of MMA, you probably already know who Cain Velasquez is. However, if you’re just a casual follower of the sport, you might want to take note because Cain undoubtedly has the talent to become a future champion in the revitalized UFC heavyweight division. Cain brings a rare combination of speed, strength and dedication. Cain’s work ethic most likely formed during his days as an amateur wrestler, which time and time again has proven to be the best base to come from when entering the sport of MMA. Velasquez was a two-time All-American collegiate wrestler at Arizona State in addition to winning a National Junior College title at Iowa Central Community College. Cain is also a former two-time Arizona 5A state high school wrestling champion. Velasquez has been able to transition the work ethic he learned as a wrestler into his mix martial arts career. Cain has earned his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu purple belt under respected BJJ player Dave Camarillo. He also brings to the table an ever improving striking game as evidenced by his first round KO of Nogueira. Another thing Cain brought with him fro ...

Cain Velasquez in his victory over Rodrigo Minotauro. Photo: Josh Hedges Cain Velasquez shocked the world in his last outing in the UFC with a stunning knockout of Rodrigo Minotauro, one of the greatest MMA heavyweights of all times. A man of simple customs, who avoids the spotlight, the fighter quietly came up the ranks and is now one of the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s main heavyweights. The US born son of Mexicans recently spoke with our correspondent Nalty Jr, for an interview published in NOCAUTE magazine. GRACIEMAG.com brings you the best from the conversation. How long have you been training MMA? It’s been three years since I started. How did you get your shot at fighting in the UFC? I only had two fights and wanted to fight in other events before the UFC. But it was tough and my manager said, “There’s no way to wait any longer, it’s time to fight in the UFC.” He called them, made Dana White an offer and we went to Las Vegas. Dana watched me fight standing with two fighters and then on the ground with two more. He liked what he saw and said I was a UFC athlete. Which fighters are role models to you? I like watching Fedor’s fights a lot; he’s the best MMA fighter. I’m inspired by his way of fighting. But I also find inspiration in my coaches. They always show me what to do and how to do it. But Fedor has a lot of wins, with good performances, and that’s why people want to see him fight. You’re a wrestler, but have won a lo ...
