The man had back fat for fuck's sake. Reminded me of Liddell in recent years (aside from the Wand fight where Chuck was in phenomenal shape).

Lmao. it's funny you say that. When Rampage came out I said to my wife. "what is it mandatory for the lhw champ to get a beer belly?" I'm not sure how much that effected the outcome, but his stomach wasn't as hard as in the past.

I picked Forrest before I saw his beer belly so...lol

I noticed it right when he walked in the octagon. yeah he didnt gas but he also didnt fight like he normally does either. His conditioning was very questionable. His hand speed seemed slower IMO.

I dont think Rampage was in the same shape as his first three fights in the UFC if you watched tough you could tell he had been slacking on his diet in his 9 months off. The guy has admitted he is lazy and need someone to push him to train, i dont think his cardio was a factor but i don't think he was in top shape, I expect to see a more in shape Rampage for his next fight. I can't wait to see the guy back in the octagon

Everybody knows that Rampage wasn't in as good of shape as he usually is. At the same time, everyone knows there are no excuses, and I feel like this is a way of taking away from Forrests victory. I for one, am one who thought that Rampage deserved the win. He didn't get it, ho hum, it was close and congrats to Forrest. One thing I noticed though, was how Forrest towered over him. I thought when Chuck fought Rampage that Rampage made Chuck look small. I cant imagine how Forrest will make Chuck look. Makes me wonder if Chuck did some sit ups if he could make 185.

Rampage wasn't in shape, but the intensity he fought Henderson with for 25 minutes wasn't there.

thats like taking a picture before u work out, then after you work out and compairing the 2... U can't do that as ur muscles obviously flair up after working out... not to mention he just won the belt by knocking out chuck.. I think he had just a little more exitement in the first pic .. DONT U THINK?

At the least this fight was a DRAW.. re-watch forest won the second possibly 10-8 and he may squeeked out the 5th...not by much... He did not do enuff to warrent taking the belt. Not hard to see that the money was in forest winning that fight.

Rampage not only looked different, but his mentality looked different. I have never seen him so passive in his fights. He looked out of it. I think Rampage just took Forrest lightly.

Sure there is a difference, 15 to 20 pounds, Rampage did cut weight in the 2nd pic, lol.
But yeah, I did notice he look less diesel out there than he looked in fights before.
