Much like Dominick Cruz, Cain Velasquez has been a fragile champion. The difference is, Cruz is a 135lb'r, while Velasquez fights at heavyweight. That's not a weight class where you want to be injury prone (not that you ever do).

Will Werdum's vastly improved striking and top-notch BJJ cancel out Velasquez's stellar wrestling and cardio? Lets get the answer in 2015.
