rashad is getting knocked out

[leedogg900]

id like to see rashad win this fight but i dont know if he can. rashad has good boxing and a good chin so he should definalty last all 3 rounds anywyas.

nay it's gotta be the classic Chuck haymaker right through the jazz hands.

i think we're going to see a very cautious rashad in this fight. i doubt he'll be able to take chuck down and if he does he won't be able to keep him there for long if the tito and bisping fights were any indications. basically, this is chuck's fight. i can't wait to read what Afro has to say though

[ILJO]

this sucks

Rashad is alright but hes not up there with chuck. Not even close

I think Chuck is happy about this. He gets an easier opponent and probably gets a title shot if he beats rashad.

This is going to look a lot like Chuck's fights with Tito. Rashad has no chance of standing with Liddell, and he ain't taking him down. Yeah, his teammate Jardine beat him, but Jardine is a completely different kind of fighter than Rashad.

Chuck should def win but I do think that Rashad will get 1-2 takedowns. The only thing is is that it is just as hard to keep chuck down as it is to take him down and he wont be able to control the fight. I think that this could be a win win for Rashad just beacause he could upset chuck or he could give a good performance which gives him good credability with the mainstream fans. The only x-factor is a quick/dominating KO for chuck which could very well happen cause its chuck. I see a better fight than most think and I actually think rashad will take chuck down once or twice but will not be able to keep him there. Chuck will win by ko/tko in the 3rd round after a very good effort by Rashad.

Good fight for both fighters.

Chuck gets 2nd win in a row

Rashad gets some more recognition after putting up good fights with Tito and Chuck

[Bullock]

Rashad is going to get KTFO me thinks.

Damn Shogun's fragile knee. I hope he is actually able to come back. It would suck if it were a career threatening injury.

still not everyone knows who Silva is, and almost everyone knows who Rashad is. Plus, albeit a shitty main event, Rashad has been there several times. plus the whole "being a TUF winner thing"...

with all that being said, i hope Liddell POUNDS Rashad, and sends him down to 185 where he belongs! but should Chuck get a title shot after this fight...NO! if Forrest beats Rampage then maybe, but Chuck does not deserve another fight with Rampage no matter how many fights he wins IMO.

Top to bottom..nicely put. But I would say that Chuck would deserve a title shot no matter what. He impresses with wins over other names in the top 5, why not? Just not after the Evans fight for sure. But I am in agreeance tho...much rather see Thiago/Chuck. THAT'D be sick.

I see this fight going alot like the first two Tito fights with a touch of Babalu 2. I cant wait for the shit talk. It'd be great if Rashad talks all the shit and all Chuck does is laugh. Chuck wins via NASTY TKO rd 2. It'd be rd 1, but Rashad will be very, very cautious and practically run for 5-7 minutes.

Then who does Thiago fight?

ill have to go with chuck on this one... chucks takedown defense and sprawl are too good for rashad to lay on him for 3 rounds and eke out a decision, chucks stand up is way crisper, baring a freakish salmon-esque knock out, theres no chance i see rashad winning this, infact i see a tito style battering coming rashads way...... on that note... someone should create a .gif of rashads bullshit dancing/showboating spliced with chucks relentless barage of blows on the fence against tito and turn that into a .gif because that would hilarious, not sure if you could get the camera angles, im just picturing rashad ducking and weaving around those punches and that would be hilarious.
