This.
People don't understand the advantage that Lesnar is walking around with - not being a ****, but we do this "size doesn't matter thing," an awful lot, and boy does it ever!!! Mir beat an inexperienced Lesnar, and that was after what I consider a questionable separation by the ref when Lesnar had him on queer street.
Velasquez may be strong enough and athletic enough to outwork Lesnar. HOWEVER, people (not necessarily here) seem to be forgetting that Lesnar was an NCAA Champ as well. The man knows how to work - people who have not wrestled in college, or competed at high levels in a contact sport do not understand the kind of work it takes to win. You aren't just "more talented, or more gifted," because EVERYBODY is at that point. You have to work your ass off.
If Lesnar chooses to do so, this is going to be an incredibly tough fight for Cain. Cain's best option will, in my opinion, be to try and outstrike Lesnar. Grappling with him is a recipe for either being dominated, or wearing yourself out.
Personally, if both perform to potential, it's going to make a boring HW division. It will be Brock, then Cain, then everybody else.
