beastly. looks like we know who’s next in line to fight against the lunchbox wielder.
clearly cain won but i thought the fight was stoped alitle Prematurely
mexicans can’t fight!
Why is Mazzagati always making controversial decisions? UFC needs to let him go. At least Rothwell was still able to fight. Thanks Bruno- I don’t mind if messages come up in the screen at the end. I’m not going to complain
What a beating
I don’t think it was stopped early. Steve Mazzagatti saved Ben from an asswhoopin’. Because from the looks of the continuous beating he was taking, there was no way Ben would have lasted to the end of the fight. He would have been either KO’d or submitted if they let the fight go on.
I was really impressed with Cain. I couldn’t believe how Rothwell looked so much bigger than Cain, but Cain was able to pick him up and take him down!
Thanks Bruno.
mexicans can’t fight my ass did you see that ass beating big ben took? gtfo brianfag!!
damn cain is gonna be trouble for brock
and if, and thats a big if! he fight carwin
i dont think carwin well make it out of the 1st round
what an awesome display of wrestling, i think cain has a ligitimate chance of beating brock although we’l have to see how he works off his back 1st.
Cain is a BEAST, mad Ben look like an amateur. Mix of GSP and Fearless wanderlei. He just keep improving each fight like GSP, guy is relentless. Lack Knockout power from a heavyweight, might be his downfall against a bigger heavyweight. I want to see him improve on one more fight. Then bring on Brock on. His ready for the tittle shot. Just wow. Big ups for Ben for hanging on. Early stoppage, but Ben had little chance to come back. Great Fight!
brock, nogueira and velasques…….who are the real champ?
why did they sign this fight again???
Hey Ben, you were OUT!!!! it was only a flash knockout to him but he was out!!!
Bad stoppage, but that beating would have continued anyway, so it had to be done.
Wow, total domination. He made Ben look like a first timer. Great Job Valasquez!
That fight could have been stopped at anytime. He took too many shots and Mazz warned him that he wasn’t going to let him take much more of that. Good stoppage. He was warned. Big Ben got dominated! I disagree with the commentators, just because you get up doesn’t mean that you are alright. Most of the time instincts make you get up even after heavy undefended shots like that. Any dork that says early stoppage is clearly an idiot. I lost count on how many shots snapped Ben’s head backwards like a broken twig. The minute Ben got up you know he was going down again and get beat some more. Ref knew that you know that so stop with early stoppage bullshit.
domination of the highest order, heshould fight brok or carwin
yeah i agree about the early stoppage, however he was getting a good beating!!!!
apparently mexicans can fight you ignorant prick
Cain was great, premature or not I think the outcome of that fight was decided in round one. Cain has a bright future in the UFC and I look forward to watching him beat people senseless in fights to come
.
valasques is 4 real… if it wasn’t against rothwell lol
Rothwell was is his a BUM
So !! what does that prove ??
Early but only stopping the inevitable
“mexicans can’t fight!” queer can talk ,why mexicans can´t fight.
bullshit stoppage. cain has no power. he will get owned by brock or carwin. landed 300 shots and barely left a mark on rothwell. lets see cain v. dos santos. looks like the ufc is coddling this guy.
nah screw what Rogan says. When you take 6 puches striaght to your face without defending yourself than it’s time to stop it.
brianf7 your real dad is mexican! you mom has been lying to you!
brianf7 your real dad is mexican! your mom has been lying to you!
Wrestling – Striking combo of Cain can’t be beat. Hopefully Lesnar was watching.
Anyone with a racially themed tattoo on their body, specifically Cain’s large “Brown Pride” on his chest, should not be allowed to fight in televised or pay-per-view events. Everyone knows that if Ben Rothwell had a tattoo on HIS chest that said “White Pride”, then he would be a dirty skinhead or something. Be fair UFC, and get a respectable Latino fighter, and not this racist trash Cain Velazquez! We deserve better, and we pay for it.
Performance of the night. Hands down. Cain looked like and absolute beast.
i def agree cain would have won this fight even if the ref didn’t stop it when he did but rothwell was taking those punches and stood up right before the ref stopped it. I think cain is a tough fighter but he will not dominate lesnar like that. i’m not a big fan of lesnar but he is too strong on the ground and hits too hard.
Stephen60641, you’re an idiot.
brianf7, you’re far ahead.
Cain CAN beat Borck, but I think his next fight should be Dos Santos and the winner of that fight is without a doubt the best HW contender.
Utter dominance by Velasquez. He is looking really impressive. First a huge win over Cheick Kongo and now this one. For the people that think it was an early stoppage you have to realize that the referee takes into account the total cumulative damage that the fighter has sustained throughout the fight in making that decision and not just that particular round in which the fight was stopped. Rothwell took a ton of unanswered shots in the first round and even though he is a tough guy who probably could have taken more, he didn’t need to. The fight was way too one sided and if one fighter is not protecting himself or answering back the fight needs to be stopped. It’s funny how Rothwell was saying that takedowns don’t win fights and that’s exactly what happened to him, even though most of those takedowns were more like drag-downs.
One more thing, for the people on this site and others that say that Velasquez is a racist because of his tattoo, you really need to reevaluate your way of thinking. There is a big difference between “Brown Pride” and “White Power”. You can be proud of your heritage without being racist, especially when you come from a repressed minority race.
TOO EARLY BULLSHITT, THE REF WARNED BEN BEFORE THE STRAT OF THE 2ND ROUND. AND FOR ====Stephen60641==== Brown pride is a slogan used interchangeably to depict both the movement of and concept within politically active Latino communities, especially Latinos, Chicanos, and Indo-Caribbean people in the United States.The slogan has been used by Latinos (especially of Native American descent) to denote a feeling of self-respect, celebrating one’s heritage, and being proud of one’s personal worth. Brown pride as a national movement is closely linked with the developments of the American Civil Rights Movement, during which noted figures such as Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, A. Philip Randolph, Stokely Carmichael, and others protested the conditions of the United States’ segregated society, and lobbied for better treatment for people of all races. This time in the United States also saw the creation of brown pride movements such as the Chicano Movement and La Raza advocating brown pride
lesnar would crush cain
i hate lesnar but thats the truth
Stephen60641, I think that the racist trash in here is you! And you know it!!! No one cares about Cain’s tatoo.
Rothwell got up every time cain took him down. Watch the Sakuraba fight and see how a ref should handle situations.
Cain’s punches were not really hurting Ben and the fight should have continued.
That Mexican just mowed him over. He sure did clean up this fight.
What’s up with the “Brown Pride” tattoo? Can you imagine the reaction of a Caucasian fighter with “White pride” tattood across his chest? He’d never fight in the UFC.
Cain’s a good fighter, but that’s fucked up right there.
Bruno: There is a fighter with “White Pride” tattooed on his arm. They always make him put tape over it. I have posted a couple of his videos but I can’t remember his name. He also says that it is just “support for his people”. I don’t see how you can oppress one persons support for his people and praise anothers. It seems like they both should be treated equal.
I am part Native American and part Anglo so I see it from two views.
I see people defending it, but “reverse racism” is still racism. A Caucasian is not permitted by society to express pride in their race (though country of origin is usually ok, like being proud to be Italian or Scottish and such). If you want to express pride in your race, that’s fucked up. Cain’s tattoo, in a just world, would say “Whatever-country-his-ancestors-came-from Pride” But then, we don’t live in a just world, so I guess it’s to be expected.
And pointing out an inequity is NOT racism, Mexguit et al. Stating the obvious facts about the way our society views race relations is not racism, but an observation. I’d be 10x more pissed if someone had a “White Pride” tattoo, and you sure as hell wouldn’t say “No one cares about the tattoo.”
“The Hype is Justified.” Joe Rogan. Joe has moved from weed to crack. Someone ought to finally let him have it right there when he says stupid shit.
Cain is the truth!! Junior dos Santos will put up a better fight but I predict Cain will out perform him in route to the title!
Bad stoppage! Mazagatti, once more, has no idea what he’s doing. The fight should had been stopped in the first round. Rothwell showed absolutely no ground game…
I agree with KieranMac, if a European/Anglo fighter had a tattoo that said White Pride the world would go ape shit. I’m of Puerto Rican heritage, but I understand where his heart is, but its still double standard and don’t agree with it. He could have easily just put ‘La Raza’ instead.

WHite Pride!
Listen, this is hardly the place to debate racial politics, but I have to disagree with those who are talking about someone having a “White Pride” tattoo. Like I said before, there is a big difference in saying “Brown Pride” or “White Pride” and “White Power”. I understand that there is a double standard when it comes to that, but in my opinion it would be wrong to judge someone with even a white pride tattoo as a racist. The only reason people might suspect that is because those sort of mottos and slogans have been used by racists. But just because there is a double standard doesn’t mean that both are wrong. I don’t think either motto is racist by nature. If someone feels that it’s not fair that they cannot have a white pride tattoo without being labeled as a racist than they can take that up with the racists who have used that motto in the past. Also the difference is one group is a minority in this country. So when you speak about brown pride you are talking about the uplifting and empowerment of a repressed and discriminated group. Just like when the black panthers chanted black power in the ’60s it wasn’t to try to bring others down it was to try to bring up their own people. Furthermore, I feel like if he had lost noone would even be bringing this up.
Stop dreaming people…the robot from Terminator couldn’t beat Brock Lesnar!!!
Lesnar will piss pound Cain. No one can deal with his size or strength. Think about it, he used to be a professional wrestler.
viva mexico,,,,,
cain es el mejor de todos de los pesados hoy,,
si se llega a dar ,,, cain vs lesnar,,,, cain ganaria,, lo puedo apostar..

Why do people care if someone puts White Pride, or Asian Pride, or Green Pride, or whatever the hell they want!!! I don’t know, but maybe some people’s self esteem are low or something. If you live a good life, have a good job, degree, or whatever then you would not really pay attention to stupid sh*t as to what someone put on their bodies. I’m Mexican, married to a Japanese girl, and my best friend is White, so I don’t care about race. I don’t know that’s just my opinion. This is an MMA site.
He clearly won the fight. I think it should have been stopped in the first round. But him agianst Brock relly. Do you guys forget Brock is a all american wrestler. And I don’t mean WWE shit. He cant out wrstle brock just by his size alone. But for all you doughters I say bring it.
terrible fight for big ben good stop. he got hit hundreds of times in the face with almost no resistance . WHITE PRIDE
mexican pride tat cant be compared to a “white pride” tat! it can be compared to an Irish clover or italian symbol! nothing wrong with that! “White Pride” and the way its used is for separation of the races! If something says Irish, Scottish, English, Australian, German, Japanese, Chinese, Nigerian, etc pride whats wrong with that?
Now about the fight….Big Ben didnt land a punch in the 2nd round and after the 1st minute in the 1st round he didnt land any! he got beat down and didnt defend the 90% connect rate so, good stoppage!
Problem is, Dalnkwnt, it doesn’t say “Mexican pride.” It talks about skin color, not ancestry, and therein lies the difference. Anyhow, that conversation ain’t gonna change anyone’s opinion, so it ain’t worth continuing.
Cain could potentially outwrestle Brock – both are NCAA Division I All-Americans. Brock went to Minnesota, Cain to Arizona State, both colleges with top-notch wrestling programs. The deciding factor in that fight wouldn’t be wrestling – two wrestlers with pedigrees like that wouldn’t want to take it to the ground, unless Brock does his usual “lay my fat ass on top of you and hit you” technique.
I’d love to see that fight – would definitely be pulling for Velasquez, tattoo or not.
Brock has no stand up skill. Cain or Carwin aren’t as weak as Mir. Both Carwins and Cains boxing is much better than Brocks. A couple of good shots on the big head of Brock will put him to sleep.
Wow, I am disturbed by a lot of the responses directed at myself for bringing to question something obviously offensive to a BIG group of people. I have a diverse family background and it’s just that I know a lot of BROWN people that don’t like this guy’s tattoo. Shit like this sets us back 100 years. It’s a serious thing when you have someone get away with something like this. It sends a crappy message. Cain’s fights are the only ones my kids will never watch. I am not an idiot or an asshole for thinking or feeling this way.
Why….. Yes you are Stephen60641…….
Cain dominated enough said.
Brown Pride!
Kob, the difference between the Saku fight and this is that those punches were coming from a heavy weight. Also, Ben’s head was being slapped around like a pinata in a kid’s birthday party. As for the Saku fight sure he won the fight but at what cost? Should we now let all fighters fight even though they are clearly being battered to the ground in hopes that they still might get up a win? Do you know what getting hit in the head repeatedly can do to a fighter? Forget permanent brain damage, fighters can get a hematoma in their brain slip into a coma and die. This just happened to a guy in my gym during the last golden gloves tryout. He got beat bad with 16 oz gloves no less. 2 hours later after the fight, he felt dizzy fell down and died at the hospital. It is no joke dude. Ref’s have to err in the side of caution.
Stephen60641 your not an idiot or asshole but you are pretty ridiculous, saying you wont let your kids watch his fights. And what big group of people obviously offended by this do you speak of, you and the “brown people” you know? The tattoo no matter how you percieve it is not meant to be racist in any way and you should very well know this, it’s meant as a means of uplifting his people. People who have for the most part not been oppressed seem to not be able to understand this type of logic, but to me it’s seems pretty simple
When your brought up having to deal with constant racism, racism that some people try to tell you doens’t exist simply because they themselves have never experienced it, it makes you feel down about yourself and your people so you try to do what you can to not feel so ashamed or depressed about it.
And then the other ridiculous thing about the people complaining about the double standard which yes does exist, is that it’s not like they would run out and get a “white pride” tattoo even if they could. I like the fact that for the most part all white people have to complain about is being called racist, honestly who even cares?
FYI..
Refs and judges don’t work for the UFC. They are licensed by and work for the state athletic commissions.
(It just annoys me when people say the UFC should get new refs and/or judges as if they are hired and brought in by the UFC.)
MMaMike,
This was an experienced fighter. He knows the risks, he never seemed hurt, it was a major event, & he just escaped from Cain on the ground. You have to give him the opportunity to keep fighting. Tragedies have occurred, but they occur in many sports. It was still a bad stoppage.
why theres always ppl here who dont wanna see the facts Cain can figt!!!dont be hatin Rothwell got beat thats not an early stoppage is just avoiding some embarrasement to a guy with a bunch advantages over Cain… Rothwell Got beat and thats that!
