wow, i usually agree with what u say ace, but that has to be the funniest thing iv heard in a while. chuck eats world class wrestlers for breakfest, randy could have been an olompic wrestler had he presued it, and tito is a world class wrestler, but they got ko'ed, rashad is one of the best wrestlest in lhw but not near to tito or randy.

what the hell r u laughin at armnhc, ur the guy who says that tito will beat chuck. even tought tito is way better then rashad at wrestling neither will even come close to takeing chuck down. it sickens me too see how much tito gets paid its a bunch of bs. did u know that besides chuck liddell tito get paid the most? thats right even more then sylvia,franklin, and hughes not to mention guys with more skill and r actually consitered contenders for a belt. i think he is a great fighter but to see that he gets paid more then all the champs besides chuck is a bunch of bs.

Rashad could beat chuck's children but not Chuck... Yet... If Rashad goes to a respectible training camp that will further develop his skills he is going to be a world class fighter in 3-5 years. He already has excellent boxing, wrestling and is the quickest LHW in UFC.
If he stays at the Jackson training camp he will remain an undercard fighter but if he leaves that camp and go's to Quest or Punishment in 3-5 years (possibly sooner) he will be a main event fighter and very exciting to watch.
The fact that he has good boxing and is extremely fast is a very good weapon and can be fine-tuned in the years to come as long as he switches camps.
IMO he is part of the UFC future and I'm sure Dana White realizes this as well because they do scouting reports on the fighters progress adn that's why we see certain fighters matched with tougher competition like Diego vs Diaz, then onto Karo. Swick vs Riggs, now onto the Crow. Kos vs Ficket (which he was ready for) in one of his first televised fights he lost, moved down and is now climbing back up.
Leben vs Cote, then fed to A. Silva... You get the picture and Dana knows which fighters are prepared to fight stiffer competition and Rashad is one of them.
Not going to beat Chuck anytime soon and by the time Rashad is a world class fighter which may take 5 years Chuck will then be like 41 so at that point it may be a lopsided match in Rashad's favor as he will have increased speed and everything else whereas at 40-41 Chuck SHOULD be slowing down drastically or may even be retired by them.

greats points made but rashad might be able to contend with some good lhw, but with chuck? hell no, wrestling is not good enough at all to take chuck down, and even if he did which he wouldnt, he does nothing on the ground and his standup is fair and nowhere near chucks at all.

Right now if the fight took place, even if Rashad was able to take chuck down, he will land very little and stay in full guard and Mcarthy will stand them up quickly (main event, they will stand them back up quick fast if Rashad is lnp) so that's 5 rounds of Rashad having to take Chuck down like 3 times per round, it just wouldn't happen.
new camp, totally different training methods for 3-5 years (leaning more towards 4-5 years) and Rashad will be a world class fighter IMO.
If his speed remains as fast as it is now and his boxingn and wrestling improve I would give him a chance vs Chuck but he would have to be able to inflict damage if and when he got the takedown and really make Chuck work hard from the bottom, that is the only way to wear chuck down unless you are a world class striker and can bang with him which Rashad is clearly not and will never be, he can only lok to improve on his boxing and wrestling.
Hypothetically if a fight ever did take place with both of them being in their primes I would bet on Chuck but you never know, the speed and quickness of Rashad is something that you just don't see in LHW as he moves like a damn LW so that could cause difficulties for Chuck but that is also assuming Rashad goes on to become this world class fighter which may very well never happen and will certainly never happen at his current training camp.

unless rashads wrestling gets better then randy's wrestling he wont be able to take chuck down he will lose and unless his standup gets better then chuck he will lose. both of those r seemingly impossible
