Cain should take this if it goes down. Although...gettin KO'd like that has changed the mindset and killer instinct of better and more seasoned fighters. I hope Cain still has that confidence and edge. If not...Mir get another top flight W and, most likely, a title shot.

We will get to see Cain's BJJ def in this one.

Great fight though, can't wait

This fight makes the most sense IMO given the availible parties. I was thinking about maybe Cain/Carwin, but Shane is coming off such a long layoff that I don't know if throwing him in against the former main event is the best thing, so Cain/Mir is the much more ranking-relevant bout.

Now, Bigfoot/Carwin would be a very cool bout to see as well, as both are a little lower in the rankings and are both mastodons.

Would've preferred Cain/Fedor....but ya know.

Does the winner get first crack at Dos Santos/Overeem winner? You would think they would have to.

I'd like to see Carwin get in there against Kongo. I haven't seen anything lined up for him yet either.
