UFC welterweight fighter Leon Edwards joined Joe Rogan on the Joe Rogan Experience show #106. ‘Rocky’ met with the UFC commentator him after the Belal Muhammad fight back in March at a UFC Fight Night event. In the episode, they engaged in a discussion about the heavyweight fighters.

They talked about Stipe Miocic and his accomplishments in the UFC. Rogan also believes Miocic is the most successful heavyweight, but he said, “It’s hard to say who the G.O.A.T is.”

Edwards responded, “For me Cane Cardio Cane Velasquez.”

Rogan praised Velasquez and said, “He puts a pace on you that’s inhuman. I don’t know how he does it either. He had weird genetics. That’s the only thing that could have explained it because I talked to DC goes, dude. He would take three weeks off and then come to the gym and out cardio everybody, and it just didn’t make any sense. That’s a one in like a hundred million people.”

Cain Velasquez vs Fedor Emelianenko- A dream match that may not happen

Cain Velasquez was unlike any heavyweight as he offered pace and stamina within the cage. He won four out of his six title fights in the UFC. He faced and defeated some of the scariest men on the planet like Brock Lesnar, Antonio Silva, and Junior Dos Santos.

The former UFC heavyweight champion used to train with Daniel Cormier due to which he also acquired great wrestling skills. Given his all-round dominance, there were always calls of a dream fight pitting Velasquez against Russian legend Fedor Emelianenko (39-6).

Rogan also wished to see this fight when the legends were at the peak of their powers, as a fight between the two would have been a spectacle to watch. Joe Rogan said, “Cain was a monster. Cain vs Fedor would have been the sh*t. Cain vs Fedor would have been fuc***g amazing.”
