Cain Velasquez was supposed to face Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira at UFC 108, but "Big Nog" recently had to pull out due to a severe staph infection. And with Brock Lesnar's recent health troubles keeping the heavyweight champion on the sidelines for an indefinite period of time, Velasquez told FanHouse that he doesn't know if his next opponent will be Nogueira or Shane Carwin and whether an interim title will be on the line.The undefeated heavyweight contender also talked about his recent victory over Ben Rothwell, dealing with the media and his dream of fighting in Mexico. Check out the video interview below.

I may be going out on a limb by saying this, but I am starting to think more and more that Cain might really be the future of the HW Divison in the UFC. I'm not sure Junior can beat him and I'm a big fan of Shane, but Cain has been the most consistent HW for the past while. I would like to see how he fares against Big Nog, though. Cain has probably never experienced a ground game like Nog's.
