Yeah' date=' I'm curious too.

 

Is Rampage finally going to grow a pair and take his beating like a man or what?

 

Seriously, Rashad is so up in Quintin's head that it's hilarious. He's had him beat mentally for a long time and that's 90% of the battle.[/quote']

 

Well I wouldn't quite say that. Rashad admitted himself that Rampage did get under his skin A LOT too. It's just that he didn't show it as much as Rampage did. So they both got under each others skin. And while I gotta give the speed advantage to Rashad, I don't think he's gonna beat Rampage. Rampage has got a great chin, he's tough as nails, and he's super strong. IF Rashad beats him, it'd prolly be by decison just like Forrest. But I don't see that happening. I hope it really does go down at UFC 114. I can't wait...

Judging by what making Rampage angry resulted in for Wandy and Rampage's abilities I see the possibility of this fight ending quick. It only takes one two tops from Rampage to end your night no matter who his opponent at LHW is. Only way Evans pulls this out is a decision but honestly I don't see that happening unless the same Rampage that fought forrest shows up. The only person that I honestly think can wrestle with (not out wrestle rampage) is possibly Couture and even that I see going in Jackson's favor. I would be super shocked if Evan's game plan of take down after take down was effective at all with Rampage. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THIS FIGHT

now now kids, for all you people that think Rashad can take out Rampage the only way thats happening is if he does it Thiago Silva style take down after take down, but i dont think that Rashad can hold Rampage down, Rampage will get up and knock him out. Rashad is quick but what have we saw impressive in stand up ? Chuck Liddel knockout yeah but besides that definitly nothing special. I got Rampage by KO espiecally because hes mad.

Ditto' date=' except I dont think that will happen unfortunately.[/quote']

 

Yeah, it'd be Rashad pounding his face into the canvas... Rampage has crappy ground skill, and Rashad has great ground skill... Spartan wrestler/grappler, Black belt BJJ... Dude I wouldn't be half surprised if Rashad submits Rampage.

yes yes yes yes yes yes possible

 

my point is i see the ground game going as far as rashad and thiago, and i also think Rampage can wrestle his way up atleast. Which means Rampage would more than likely KO him, and people say Rashads quick and has massive knockout power, not even close to true speed sure got lots of it, but KO power i disagree, only saw him take out Chuck impressively, and lets be honest Chucks the man but hes just not the same anymore

Rampage is not going to be able to pull it off... After the first takedown from Rashad, a little GnP, and an attempted submission, Rampage is gonna be shy of another takedown and that will open Rashad the opportunity to beat him in the striking department too...

 

Rashad has this in the bag, folks.

Rampage did fine against Hendo. He's no wrestler like Rashad, but I think he can hold his own. And I don't see Rashad taking him down at free will like he did with Thiago.

 

-buy the ticket. take the ride.

Hendo's first time in a cage... Shogun had similar problems coming into the cage, and he was also injured..

 

I'd love to see a Rampage vs. Hendo rematch, because I think we'd be having some seriously different results.

I got rampage by ko in the second!

 

I don't think rashard can take many of his punches from whats been seen in his last 2 fights imo, and really I just don't see rashard koing page or even wanting to stand with him!

 

From what rashard has said about the ko lost to machida, then getting rocked by thiago, I think rashard is really going to doubt his chin against a guy with the power of rampage imo

 

Rampage is just a mean dude and all the talk is just going to make it worse for rashard!

did u not see rampage vs. hendo. watch any part of that fight and then explain to us how his ground game "crappy". they are not the best but there honed enough to stay out of trouble for the most part, then when the fancy jits kick in, he just slams ya on ur head.

 

i think rashad might get a UD if our boy rampage dont knock him out, like he most likely will

The hype about Rashad's ground game is rediculous. Yes he has good take downs, but look at how ineffective his ground and pound was against Thiago. If he just takes Rampage down to score points, I see Rampage doing the same, but he'll at least get some shots in. After all he coined the phase "score points!" in his TUF days.

 

Rashad stumbles on his heels as counter fighter (Iceman, Forrest and Machida fights highlight this) and fakes too much. And the Thiago fight showed he doesn't have the conditioning to be effective in striking and take downs for a full three rounds.

No ground game? wow' date=' the posting quality gets better each day here. Watch his Pride fights and open your eyes. Rashad will not be taking down Rampage.[/quote']

 

i like this guy, and i also think hes right and as someone stated earlier Rashad's ground game is really overhyped, and Rampage's is underrated, and when it comes to stand up someones KO power is really overrated to, and thats definitly not Rampage

i guess the other 10% would be not getting hit once because rashad cant take a punch from machida you really think he can afford to get hit by page? page is going to ruin rashad.
