Cain Velazquez with your belt
After knocking out Brock Lesnar at UFC-121, Cain Velazquez won the Ultimate heavyweight title, but anyone who thinks the fighter is on vacation enjoying his reign is mistaken. The American of Mexican descent is already starting to prepare to defend his belt against the Brazilian junior gypsy, a duel that should take place in the middle of next year. Speaking to Canadian radio Fan 590, Velasquez guarantees that he is already studying the Brazilian athlete's feared striking, but will be prepared to perform well wherever the fight takes place.
“He (Cigano) is a great stand-up fighter, has good takedown defense and is well conditioned. I think it's going to be a tough fight, but we're studying him a lot. We are analyzing how to attack, as we did against Brock. If I have the opportunity to knock out or control the fight on the ground, I want to be very good everywhere,” said Velasquez.
