| Bigfoot gets help on preparation for Velasquez Bigfoot gets help on preparation for Velasquez Quote:
“I was really glad about the opportunity. It’s my UFC debut and they are giving me a chance to fight one of the top two guys of the division, a former champion. I have two and a half weeks ahead of me and I guarantee it’s going to be a good fight”, said the heavyweight fighter.
Questioned about the changes on his trainings with his opponent replaced, the Brazilian affirmed he needed to bring two wrestlers to help him out, besides some strikers.
“I brought a couple of wrestlers to help me out. One of them (Steve Mocco) fought Cain Velasquez three times in high school and defeated him every single one. He’s spending a couple of weeks here to give me tips and tell me why I should worry about Cain Velasquez”, said.
“He’s a good guy. He’s very strong, about the same height as Cain and has a lot of experience for having fought him before. It’s a great thing for me. There’re some strikers coming to support me too, like Mark Hunt, who’s being really helpful. There’s Thiago Silva, who’s a great helping hand at this point”.
Besides fighting for the first time in the UFC, Bigfoot might be close to a title shot on the organization. “I’m focused on Cain Velasquez”, dodges Antonio, whom is friends with the current champion of the division, Junior dos Santos.
“I guess there’re many people ahead of me on the line. It’s my UFC debut. Fighting for the title is the consequence of a long-term work. Just like the champion had to do like four or five fights, knocked out everybody who crossed his way and got his chance at the title and earned it. It’s a longer way, but I guess that, in the end of the day, it pays off”.

I don't like that Mark Hunt is helping him, because I don't want them to become friends and then one of them cries about possibly fighting each other.

Bigfoot has a real shot at beating Cain.
Matter of fact, I will call it first
Bigfoot wins by TKO rd 2

Cain will light him up standing like Cormier did. He can also take him down. I do see Bigfoot possibly being able to take Cain down, but its an outside chance. Cain should dictate this entire fight.

Bigfoot should really look to get on top of Cain and just brutalize him. But I don't see that happening, Cain UD.
