He is ranked #3 in the world. Why is this guy so highly rated? He has already been released by the UFC once. Now people are thinking that he can challenge Cain? Just because Werdum beat a regressing Nog, doesnt mean that he can challenge Cain.
Werdum has to face guys like Travis Browne & Junior Dos Santos in order to face Cain Velasquez. He will lose to all 3. (Dos Santos already crushed him badly back in 2010).
I feel that the current versions of Hunt & Bigfoot will beat him.
I think that Barnett, Overeem, Mir, and Cormier would all beat Werdum too (Overeem already did so in 2011).
If Overeem gets by Mir, I'd love to see Overeem KO Werdum. Or Maybe it will be Travis Browne's elbows that will put an end to his run.
