Cain Velasquez did what he was expected to do in a UFC 160 rematch with Antonio Silva.
Heavily favored heading into the matchup, Velasquez required only 81 seconds to dispose of Silva with strikes. Although “Bigfoot” protested the stoppage, he was not intelligently defending himself from Velasquez’s punches.
A two-time champion, Velasquez is already one win away from tying the UFC heavyweight record for consecutive title defenses. In order to break that record, it looks like he will have to win a rubber match against Junior dos Santos, who beat Mark Hunt in Saturday’s co-main event.
While the next heavyweight title fight has already been determined, let’s take a look at what fights should be next for the rest of the UFC 160 competitors.
