A HUGE HW fight that never happened in the UFC!
Cain was touted as the GOAT HW for a bit there, but never had to face Carwin who was destroying guys while Cain was tied up with JDS for years!
Can Carwin stop those takedowns and land those big bombs on Cain?
What you say UG?
A healthy Carwin without back issues would have been an incredible force.

Cain was so sharp back then. He had the size of a HW but looked like he moved like a MW. I just don’t see how Carwin could have kept up with his pace.

A prime, healthy Cain was a monster. I don’t think Carwin could handle the pressure and pace. My guess would be Cain all day long.

Carwin coukd KO Cain in the first.
Wouldn’t look like JDS… might come off a break or against the fence.
Cain liked to unload in clinch range, but Carwin only needs one to land.
If that didn’t happen, Cain’s cardio and pace would likely be too much.
Dude was a machine who never let up and threw heavy leather at close range.
Carwin qould have had to hurt him early IMO.

I've never been a fan of the guy but I'm quite sure Velasquez wins this fight by a better wrestling and cardio

Carwin, by a short punch, probably just a little grazing Cain’s skin, with are forearm, and after that Cain instantly blows out his both hips and knee caps

That’s how I feel.
Carwin was different than JDS. He’d be even more dangerous in the first. But, I don’t think he would have a shot after the first.
Cain wins 7/10 times IMO.
Cain was a beast heavyweight back in his prime. Maybe the best ever

Depends. Does Cain get EPO?
Tim Duncan - Epo Cain? Or high altitude Cain
He was such an idiot. There’s a reason why werdum went to mexico city 3 months early. 8k elevation is no fucking joke.
I think it looks like Carwin vs. Lesnar. If Cain can survive the opening blast, he overwhelms Carwin by cardio.

This is the right answer. Carwin was terrifying for one round. After that - not so much. Cain could go for days if he wasn’t in Mexico or over 30 years old. The Werdum fight was a real turning point.
Low-altitude cain was nearly unstoppable.
