Cain was in a very very very good era of heavyweight wrestling tho. And did really well.
Wrestling against Steve Mocco and Cole Conrad and doing well is super impressive. In a weaker year(s) Cain just might have dominated. And he did all this as a small guy.
Cains wrestling is awesome and i would be shocked if he got outwrestled by Jon Jones (that is most likely what would decide such a fight).
Cain may only be 9-0, but we have definitely seen more of Cains strengths and weaknesses than we have of Jon Jones.
We've seen him get taken down by a mammoth wrestler and popping back up.
We've seen him take huge punches to the chin and keep going.
We've seen his cardio tested.
Jon Jones is awesome, but people saying he will steamroll Cain because he is "better at everything" seem crazy to me.
Maybe i have to get used to it always being like this. When Anderson frontkick KO vitor, hes the GOAT.
Now that Jones had an impressive win, hes the GOAT and would probably have ragdolled Karelin in a wrestling match.
