How does posting his record show he's not getting scratched? If anything, it just adds to the reasoning why the U.F.C. scratched his fight with Shane. They want to keep both of them as viable contenders, and pitting them against each other is going to hurt someone's stock. They are considering Gilbert Yvel as Cain's replacement opponent.
Your right that someone’s stock could/would get hurt but isn't that why they have contender matches? But how bad, not much IMO.
Not that many fighters are undefeated.
I'm not going to go search the list of 2 undefeated fighter squaring off for a shot @ the title but there are a few.
Why wouldn't Cain or Carwin loosing negate either of them being viable contender? Brock, Chuck,Randy,GSP,BJ, ect... all were, what’s different.
The only reason I can see them doing this is to keep a foot on the neck of Strikeforce. This is a shitty thing to do to Cain if this is true.
Its hard for me to see UFC furthering their dominance in MMA if they keep making backstabbing moves like this for ratings/benji’s.
