MMA Top 10 Heavyweights: Cain Velasquez Is the Champ

by Michael David Smith
What a wild, crazy, unpredictable sport MMA is. A few months ago the heavyweight fight everyone wanted to see was Fedor Emelianenko vs. Brock Lesnar, and MMA fans thought we'd be deprived of having one true heavyweight champion because Fedor and Lesnar would never fight each other.

Now Fedor and Lesnar have both suffered decisive first-round losses, and you'll be hard-pressed to find anyone anywhere who considers either one of them the top heavyweight in the sport.

That distinction now belongs to Cain Velasquez, who at UFC 121 erased any doubt that he's the heavyweight champion of mixed martial arts. You know that Velasquez is No. 1, and you can see how 2-10 stack up below.
