Dana White has unofficially confirmed recently that Junior Dos Santos will have a re-match with Cain Velasquez. I find this to be a VERY intriguing match-up. On paper, I would choose Cain to win, because I believe that he is a more well-rounded fighter than Dos Santos. I would argue that his knockout loss to Dos Santos was a fluke. But Dos Santos has managed to spark Fabricio Werdum and he recently stopped Frank Mir in the second round, so maybe Dos Santos is really just that good.

Dos Santos is a guy that makes me scratch my head, because he seems like such a limited fighter, and yet has been the most dominant force the heavyweight division has seen in a while. While Cain should definitely not strike with Dos Santos, Cain has been training with Robert Garcia at his boxing academy, and has shown he has heavy hands.

Also, Cain just had a really impressive win over large heavyweight Antonio Silva, so he seems to be back in top-form. While I know that Dos Santos will be the favorite, I’m very intrigued to see what Cain can do with Dos Santos, if he’s able to take him down and avoid getting knocked out.
