That was a fantastic fight.
Even though Cain dominated every round, I will say that Dos Santos is a fucking fighter. Strangely enough, I found that Dos Santos' striking was nowhere near as good as it usually is.
This is just a clear example of what happens when one fighter just brings his A game and the other, while close enough to it, falls short.
The mere fact that this fight went the full five rounds is testament to the fact that both of these guys are powerhouses in their own rights. Both of which came into the fight with only but one loss to their name.
I see a rematch in their future and I think Dos Santos could take back his belt, so as long as he brings his topnotch striking back into the mix.
If Alistair Overeem and Cain do fight next and Cain defeats him, it would be a fair assumption to make in stating that Cain is by far the best heavyweight in the world.
