Who do you think will win the U.F.C. Light Heavyweight match Sat. night. Champion Chuck Liddell or Quinton "Rampage" Jackson? My heart says Rampage my mind thinks Liddell. Rampage did it before so hopefully he'll have the mental edge. But Liddell has won 7 in a row since. And Rampage has been "not at his best" lately. GO RAMPAGE!!!!!!!
I want Chuck to avenge the loss but he's definitely going to have his hands full with Rampage. I guess I would have to say Chuck will get the knock out in 2. Mark
Chuck has a much wider skill set, but Rampage is bigger, has a great chin, and CONTROLLED Chuck on the ground in their first fight. Chuck's sprawl was good then, has improved, but it may not be enough. At least, Vegas seems to think so - Rampage is heavily favored. I'm going with Chuck, he has such a great chin and sprawl. This fight shouldn't go to the ground, but if Rampage gets in trouble, or stifled, he may try to take Chuck down. Either way, this is going to be a brawl. These two are very fit, and won't give up or tire out easily(like Silva/Arlovsky). Anyone notice the rest of the fight card? I think it's as impressive as any. Paresian, Leben, Din Thomas, Guoveia, Jardin, should be exciting the whole way. I'll be watching with a bottle of Cuervo, 2 dozen friends on my 61" in HD! Then stay up all night for the Monaco GP in the morning!
I heard Jackson won. Anyone have a link to a video of the fight? I couldn't find anything on YouTube.
Chuck got caught with a right, and just dropped, then came Rampage's elbow and two direct fists to the face. Ref stepped in and I became $20 richer
He kept Chuck on the ground in their first fight, something a lot of fighters have tried and failed to do. Great fight though. And now Henderson stepping in, UFC is taking over the world! (of mma ) May wanna add a **spoiler** heading for those who haven't watched the fights yet.
I thought Rampage was going to win, but not that fast! UFC is going to get a lot of great fighters now with the purchase of PRIDE. Rampage isn't going to hold on to his belt for very long if they allow the PRIDE guys a chance at him right away. To check out what happened to Rampage Jackson in Pride look up 'Rampage vs Silva' and 'Shogun vs Rampage' on youtube. You can also find the first fight between Chuck and Rampage on youtube. If you saw that fight, you wouldn't have been suprised Chuck lost.
I was a boxing fan for years, until I saw some questionable decisions and began to lose interest. I had not watched any of these 'not-many-holds-barred' newfangled style of fights before last weekend when my son in law did the pay-per-view thing while we were visiting. Very interesting stuff...primitive, a bit brutal even--but it was exciting to watch!
