Cain was exceptional in his day, but there are a few HW I can see being major problems for him.
Prime Weidman isn't a lock to hold a belt in today's MW division. There are several guys in the last year or two that I might pick against him. Izzy, Poatan, DDP, Whitaker, Chimaev, and Cannonier would not be freebies for him.
Islam would tie Bendo in knots
Jon, GSP, and MM were goats in their respective divisions. That doesn't mean the sport hasn't progressed, just that we had 3 pretty special athletes at the time. One of whom we still have.
