Cain Velasquez tror att hans kommande titelfight mot Brock Lesnar (oktober) kommer att pågå i fem hela ronder. Han tror även att han kommer att vara för snabb för den nuvarande champen. Såhär sade han i en nygjord intervju med Yahoo Sports:
”The referee isn’t going to be quick to stop the fight…. I can’t just stand there in front of him with no movement and let him explode for a double. The wrestling is going to be a big part of it. He’s primarily a wrestler and I come from a wrestling background. But the fight will come down to everything. I expect there will be boxing, jiu-jitsu, kickboxing and wrestling. I’m going to have to follow the game plan to perfection.
If I get too big, I’ll be sacrificing speed”
