rampages training needs to be in thailand with a clinch specialist, nothing else...if this fight goes down im 100% positive rua slaps on the clinch and puts rampage on the floor...

UFC 92 - “Rampage” vs “Shogun” BOOKED

Mmabay can exclusively reveal that a match between former UFC light heavyweight champion, Quinton “Rampage” Jackson and dangerous 205 pound Brazilian star Mauricio “Shogun” Rua has indeed been agreed for December 27th in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Source’s close to both camps have revealed that bout agreements have been issued by the UFC and signed by both stars and will now wait until after announcing their November events card before revealing the news.

This could form part of a triple main event for the show, always dubbed as the biggest of the year, but matchmakers will have to wait until after UFC 88 in two weeks time to make that decision.

Hot Damn I hope this is true. But we may have to wait to November for this to be made official that sucks. We will see.

ps. To Mod's I posted this in the Shogun tread but I thought that this need a tread of its own so move if necessary. Thanks.

Sick sick card forming.

UFC 92 - TBA; December 27th, Las Vegas
Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira (#2 HW in world*) vs. Frank Mir - HW title fight (confirmed)
Shogun Rua (#6 LHW in world*) vs. Quinton Jackson (#2 LHW in world*) (confirmed)
Wanderlei Silva (#5 LHW in world*) vs. TBA - (rumored)

I would love to see Wandy fight the winner of Silva/Lyoto but that will give that winner only 2 months.

I believe Lyoto was willing to fight Brandon Vera on that UFN card and had he done so it would of been within months notice, so maybe its possible you never know.

* Brandon Vera declined to fight Machida thats why he didn't appear on the card.

Hope the old healthy Shogun comes to fight.
If the winner of Silva vs Machida could fight Wanderlei on this card I will be cheering for Machida if that is the case. Think Wanderlei will be the one to beat him.

Who the hell is going to fight in the november card then? I can't think of one good main event and no don't tell me that Brock/Kongo or Kenny/Stevenson would be a good main event.

Although I have repeatedly said that having a Wand/Rampage fight is pointless... it would have made more sense to put those two for a november clash as a main event and have shogun fight a mid-tier fighter in december.

I still say the winner of Chuck/Rashad will get Wand on Dec 27th.

[ckauffman28]

i bet forest will fight winner of chuck/rashad
