A confident UFC interim heavyweight champion, Fabricio Werdum stopped by the UFC Tonight studios to preview his upcoming fight against Cain Velasquez.<\/p>\n

Here’s highlights:<\/p>\n

Fabricio Werdum on finally facing Cain Velasquez for the title:<\/strong> \u201cOn June 13<\/span>, I\u2019ll show everyone who\u2019s the real champion.\u201d<\/p>\n

Werdum on who the Mexican crowd will be rooting for in the title fight:<\/strong> \u201cI think 80 percent for him, 20 percent for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Werdum on how he\u2019ll fight<\/strong> Velasquez:<\/strong> \u201cI think Cain has good boxing, good wrestling and good conditioning, but if he takes down me, I say thank you. I\u2019m good. It\u2019s my home. I think he\u2019ll stay there. I\u2019ll finish him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Werdum on how the fight will end:<\/strong> \u201cI don\u2019t know. When I beat Fedor, I had the same feeling. I\u2019m very confident. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ll lose the fight. I\u2019m going to win for sure.<\/p>\n

 <\/strong>Daniel Cormier to Fabricio Werdum:<\/strong> \u201cThe UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez told me to tell you to stop carrying the belt everywhere. It\u2019s making him mad. If you take it to the Florida media tour, he\u2019s going to take it away from you. To be the man, you have to beat the man.\u201d<\/p>\n

Werdum on Cormier:<\/strong> \u201cI love him. Five years ago, he helped me with a lot of training with wrestling. When we first met, I took him down. I took him down three times. He grabbed me in a double leg and took me down and I got him in an armbar. You remember that!\u201d<\/p>\n
