Earlier this year, Cain Velasquez managed to rip the heavyweight title from the grasp of Junior Dos Santos at UFC 155. Velasquez accomplished this via a five-round shellacking that left Dos Santos looking less than picturesque; his face was a swollen mess.

In spite of this, Dos Santos went on to say that Velasquez “hits like a girl,” via John Joe O'Regan of Fighters Only. His rationale was based on the fact that Velasquez did not open any cuts on his face.

Obviously, this was a bit of post-fight bitterness. He called the swelling of his face “bloating,” which is as modest a description one could think of after seeing Velasquez hammer him from pillar-to-post over five full rounds.

Of Velasquez's 12 victories, 10 have come via KO/TKO, yet only one was really what could be described as an honest knockout. When Velasquez fought Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira at UFC 110, he landed a series of short, quick punches that dropped the iron-chinned Brazilian flat on his back. He followed up with punches on the ground, but Nogueira looked to have been finished beforehand.

But does having only one “true” KO on his record make him a weak puncher?

The style of Velasquez is not that of a pure stand-up fighter. He opens with punches while standing, and if he’s landing well, he’ll keep throwing. He’s a man who loves to fight, and he’s willing to attack at any level.

But above all else, he’s a smart fighter. He may not be starching opponents with punches every time, but he’s knocking people down and finishing them from there with strikes.

His main strengths are his takedowns and his top-control—both elements of a high-level wrestling attack that has proven terribly hard to deal with in the division. He mixes his stand-up with takedowns seamlessly. Fear of this aspect of his game has seen him capitalize on openings while standing.
