leglockfan - i'm no troll. you obvously dont know anything about me. bye
Good matchup but I think Rampage takes it. Bad style matchup for Dan and Rampage kindof looks bigger too.
would make a great fight
good fight.
Surprised Rampage got Chuck like he did. Rampage beat Chuck and Lindland. I think he may be too big, and strong
for Henderson. Im pulling for Henderson, and Dan did beat up Silva. Henderson can take it, but I give slight edge to Rampage.
Both good guys and fighters. Great fight IMO. good follow up to the Rampage VS Chuck fight.
"If they knew they couldn't put that together right away, they could've done Chuck vs. Rashad, Jardine, Lambert, someone UFC and much less threatening while getting the unification fight together next."
This is where you are wrong. The UFC cannot and should not have any more tomatoe can match ups at the Championship level, there are far too many top fighters and possibilities for marketing to go this route.
Why did they let Rampage fight? The answer is simple and you answered it yourself. Almost everyone thought he would loose to Chuck, you said so yourself that he was pushed into the fight. All the better chances for Chuck to quickly avenge his last remaining loss. My heart was with Jackson, but in my head I knew Chuck has the upper hand.
It's not a devious master plan, it's call good marketing that got derailed by an upset. The big upsets at the Championship level is what makes our sport all the better.
as for Machida ...dont forget the Prodigy went the distance with him...so to come up to the elite is gonna be tough.....the only thing im worrying about is killin all this competion too fast...fighters are gettin blown out
Jim York is racialist.
Have to go with Henderson in this one at least as a slight favorite. Maybe I'm retarded, but even though Rampage beating Chuck was amazing, he did it because he caught him. We didn't get to see if he could slam and go after someone like an animal for a number of rounds. He's great but still a little iffy for me.
he fuckin destroyed Chuck...I watched it 500x he even puts up his hands and waves to Chuck and says "come on Chuck lets go"....Rampage is an ELITE fighter and so is Hollywood Henderson...I dont want them to fight yet....and along with ShoGun...these are the BIG DOGS of MMA in the world so ...I just wanna take this slow this is insane...
I mean the competion at 205 is at an all time high..............I mean you got Rampage...Henderson...Shogun...Liddell...Silva..and then you have the winner of Ortiz/Evans...the winner is definitly a contender...even now Alexander with a couple more fights is gonna be there possibly.....
He "destroyed" Chuck in 2 minutes, and not by brutal GNP, but with a great, technical punch. He'll need more than that against Hollywood, and nothing in the Chack fight showed he's still got 5 rounds of domination in him. He probably does, but edge to Henderson.
Don't forget we have Sokoujou no too. Also we still have Arona and Rogerio.
