UFCGOD1 Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 yes ladies and gents , the king , the greatest LHW to grace our sport , the most classy fighter to ever step foot feet in an mma cage , the one the only mauricio shogun rua will be back to defend his title in his easiest fight of his career , his opponent glass chin evans ... this is what DW said about the return of the great one : "?He just had knee surgery. His other ones have been in Brazil and we did this one in the United States with the best doctor in the country. He?s recovering well. We?re looking at mid-Spring/early summer for his return, he?ll fight Rashad Evans. ?This kid has looked incredible in his last few outings. He knocked out [Lyoto] Machida, which nobody has ever even come close to doing, and solidifying that he?s the best 205-pounder in the world. Now Rashad gets a shot at him.?

ToiletSeat Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Rashad has a huge chance to win this considering shoguns takedown defence is very poor for a top LHW, however his BJJ could neutralise Rashads wrestling. But Rashad has been cought in his last 3 fights and lost 1 via KO. Shogun could TKO him but Rashad recovers quite well and considering both T Silva and Rampage both hit harder than shogun i don't think he will get just KOed with one punch.

cruz2990 Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 He should try to stay away as long as possible, or at least as long as he wants to be called champ because he will lose to Evans as soon as he gets back.......

joshdfs Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 By then he will have some new excuse for ducking Rashad, Rampage, Lil Nog, Jones, Machida, etc. etc.... " I need a tune-up fight before I face real competition again so I am fighting either Chuck Lidell, Mark Coleman, or Tito first, whoever can get a day pass from the retirement home first." Then he will be injured again and take another year off while his fans go on and on about how much of an MMA God he is.

He'll fight again and then be out for another 9-12 months recovering his injured knees again I like Shogun, but him always being hurt and being away for a year at a time is ridiculous and now it's holidng up the LHW championship bouts and the other 6 guys that will deserve a shot at it by the time he and rashad fight.

If he chose to play it safe like he did in the 1st Machida fight he'll get picked apart. Also Silva has vicious leg kicks. Might send Shogun back to the surgeon.

UfcIsWhereItsAt Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Shogun is highly aggressive and talented off his back , which is perfect for Rashad's weak top control. Rashad can/will get the takedowns but Shogun CAN/WILL get the SWEEP OR GET BACK TO HIS FEET and from there its only a matter of time. Let's be real now!Rashad has been rocked in his last 3 fights. Shogun has finished his last 3 opponents and is one of the greatest finishers to ever step foot in an octagon. p.s. "Rampage and Thiago hit MUCH harder then Shogun" LOL Thiago has only put one fighter to sleep and that was Jardin LOL Now Rampage i agree with but what ever the case Shogun has more out cold true knockouts then Rampage in less then half the amount of fights AND don't forget Rampage had Rashad on the verge of a coma with just a GRAZING punch!Shogun has much better accuracy then Rampage I love Rampage and I'm whatever towards Thiago but they don't compare to the killer that is Shogun.
