Junior dos Santos used his striking advantage to score a 1:04 TKO victory over Cain, becoming UFC&#8217;s top dog in the process.<\/p>\n<p>Dos Santos dropped Velasquez with an overhand right to the temple\/ear region, and he followed up with punches on the ground.  All Cain could do was cover up, and after a while, referee John McCarthy had seen enough and called a stop to the fight.<\/p>\n<p>After the fight, a teary-eyed, victorious dos Santos admitted he was scared to fight the very tough Velasquez ahead of the bout.  Talk about confronting your fears.<\/p>\n<p>The next stop for Dos Santos will be the winner of Brock Lesnar vs. Alistair Overeem, who gets the next crack at the title.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[7,8],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Junior dos Santos Knocks Out Cain Velasquez; Wins UFC Championship<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Cain Velasquez is no longer undefeated.
