UFC 88 "BREAKTHROUGH": SEPTEMBER 6th, Atlanta, GA

[BUCSnotYUCKS]

I did not list guys that were "above" and "below" all have fought in same division as Rashad.....


Rashad doesn't suck.....but he's got a long long way to go to be a title holder. I mean Forest would kill him, not too mention many others that would beat him. Rashad will lose his next fight.

If he were to fight Forrest, I don't see where Forrest has the advantage?? Rashad is a better striker, and he's obviously a better wrestler with his background.

Rashad fought HW on the show...his only HW fight was his VERY 1st fight, hasn't fought since. Pretty weak argument if you ask me.

Why don't we just make a wager on the Griffin vs Evans fight? If Evans wins, you can't post anything MMA related until Evans loses. If Forrest wins, I can't post anything until Forrest loses.

I wasn't reffering to Rashad at heavyweight....all fighters I listed have fought at light heavyweight.

Rashad is good....just not that good.

Ouch, I'll come in later. I'm just getting over how much I drank after that loss.

Biggest loss for me ever. I think it's more than most you guys would think. I'm still shocked.

OK, I think I'm ok after gasping for air the last 1.5 days.

It was a very weird fight and I really hate watching Evans but it's all about the win(the biggest reason I'm missing Pride, wins didn't matter as much as perfomances). He did absolutely nothing all fight long and Chuck just couldn't take it. I'm not sure what you do if you're Chuck there because the fight was alredy boring.

Rashad is going to be very tough for an LHWs to beat. He'll be much like CroCop was, smaller than everyone but so much faster that it creates match up problems. You could say the bigger LHWs should just take him down to nulify the speed difference but he's such a great wrestler I'm not sure many if any can.

I think Forrest can beat him because of his length and using kicks(why oh why doesn't Chuck use kicks more) but if Rashad beats Forrest I wouldn't be suprised. I think Rashad beat most LHWs but there are some match ups that I would love to see with him. Either Rua or Wandy because they like to fight out of the clinch and that could be a weakness, although we don't know.

The big fight I would love to see with Rashad is Hendo. About the same size and he's the one guy that would give Rashad fits on the ground if he wanted, assuming he would try to take Rashad down but lately Dan just tries to stand.

He keeps suprising me but damnitt I hate when guys showboat like he did, I just don't have any respect for someone who does that.

If Chuck can comeback from that savage knockout i think he will comeback a better fighter. This has to smarten him up. He was reckless Saturday night and this is why i think he lost. I really believe he didn't think Rashard could hurt him and was willing to take a few shots to get some in. He has to go back to the drawing board and like Lay said use some kicks for goodness sakes. Come in with a gameplan for now on. This knockout might have been the best thing for him. He has to know now that those long looping punches he throws won't work with a guy who has boxing talent. How he beat Vitor Belfort is shocking to me. You would think Vitor would be able to hit him at will. Vito quits tho so most likely this is what happen. I can't remember that fight to well.
