Cain Velasquez will fight Winner of Carwin vs Lesnar
Posted on July 1, 2010, 06:50 PM by HipHopMMACain Velasquez 6-0 in the UFC will get to fight the winner of Carwin vs Lesnor. Velasquez staked claim to a title shot in February with a quick first-round knockout of Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira at UFC 110. The fight was Velasquez's eighth straight and followed additional UFC wins over Brad Morris, Jake O'Brien, Denis Stojnic, Cheick Kongo and Ben Rothwell.
The former NCAA Division I All-American wrestler has been making waves since coming into the UFC. For a wrestler the majority of Cains wins have come by way of KO or TKO so this makes for an exciting fight between ethier Carwin or Lesnor.
"UFC President Dana White said that Velasquez has done enough to warrant a shot, and confirmed today he will get the next shot at the tittle.

He funny guy, i posted this already
who's Lesnor?
ya lesnore because shane is gonna put him to sleep.....and make him snore...
the HW belt is going to fly around like a hot potato. No real long term champs in the picture in UFC.
The HW division looks most impressive for the coming future. A lot of great potential title defense fights as well.....can't wait.
Big layoff for Cain though... hasn't fought since February, and the next title defense will hopefully will be in 2010, but probably not until the end of the year at the earliest.
