“I need to win this fight, it’s a very important fight to me and for this I wake up in the morning every day with this fight in my mind. It’s a great motivator for me because this time I’m training very, very hard for to give my best condition for this fight…. This is my first fight here, for this I’m training a lot because this is a very, very important fight to me. I need to win and I’m going to win because I’m training four times per day for four months for this fight and Chuck’s going to see my conditioning now.”

Wandy training four times per day for four months? Man i hope he don't overtraine himself.

He is going to send Chuck into retirement me thinks.

Sucks that they had Chuck fight Jardine, otherwise this fight would be way bigger.

My thoughts exactly. Im getting more and more pumped the closer it gets. Can't wait.

He'll be fine. He's a vet who knows how to train himself and has surrounded himself with some of the best fighters in the biz. WAR WANDY!

I really hope Wandy demolishes chuck, nothing against him but it seems everyone I know around my area thinks liddell is the best there is. Even after Jardine beat him they're like oh it's because it wasn't a 5 round fight. So come on Wandy and crush the chuck bandwagon.

I'm in the same boat you are. Chuck this and Chuck that and I've never been sold on him. He had so many holes in his game that I could never in good conscious put him above other fighters. I'll admit I didn't expect Chuck to do that badly against Rampage. I expected he'd lose but not in 90 something seconds.

Nothing went "wrong" with Chuck when he fought Jardine IMO. He just had his usual problems with strikers and Jardine is a disciplined striker who beat Chuck to the punch repeatedly. It's not like Chuck was injured. It's not like he wasn't told who his opponent was. Plenty of video on Jardine and he's known to slug it out.

Maybe if Chuck worked in stand-up defense for once he wouldn't have been scored on so easily.
