UFC Talking To Shane Carwin About Cain Velasquez?

by Brent Brookhouse

Shane Carwin said on “The Underground” message boards that he has been in talks with the UFC about fighting Cain Velasquez for the UFC’s interim heavyweight title. With Brock Lesnar out due to illness this fight would make the winner a very big star heading into a title unification bout hopefully in mid-2010.

↵The full Carwin quote can be found at Bloody Elbow.
