#2 Cain Velasquez vs Junior Dos Santos II - UFC 155
Cain Velasquez suffered his first-ever career defeat at the hands of Junior Dos Santos in the very first defence of the UFC Heavyweight title. Dos Santos had knocked him out clean, and Velasquez was looking for revenge.
He would outclass JDS with an incredible display, and this time, it would go the distance. Velasquez comfortably regained the UFC Heavyweight Championship with a unanimous decision victory...but that victory meant that there needed to be a trilogy. Could Cain finish JDS the way JDS finished him?
#1 Cain Velasquez vs Junior Dos Santos III - UFC 166
10 months after the second part, the trilogy would be completed. Cain Velasquez put the UFC Heavyweight title on the line, and in one of the most intense heavyweight title fights ever, he needed to dig deep to put Dos Santos away.
For Velasquez, just a decision victory wasn't enough. He needed a decisive finish. After a crazy back-and-forth fight, Velasquez ensured that it didn't go to the judges' hands, finishing Dos Santos in round 3 and officially cementing himself as the top heavyweight in the world.
