Brock Lesnar fights Cain Velasquez in the UFC 121 battle to decide who retains the crown. The bout will be held on October 23, 2010 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, United States.
It is difficult to discount out Lesnar from the fight and as a UFC Heavyweight Champion he has to go into the ring as favorite. Velasquez has risen up the ranks and is an underdog, but could still spring a surprise or two. Velasquez has also had five outstanding bouts leading up to this one – winning by a score of 481 to 63 in his last five fights.
What should make prediction difficult is that Cain has never lost a bout, and it is rare to see an undisputed challenger take on a champion.
