|  Shogun vs Couture (205)
At 205, who would win? I'd say Shogun as his striking is great and his bjj is phenomenal. Couture does have great wrestling and his GnP is legendary. I still think Shogun would finish him either by KO or sub. However, Couture has known for a couple of upsets (Belfort 1, Liddell, Tito, Sylvia). If this topic has been done, then a mod should just delete it.

Randy wins. I know im going with the underdog once again and not many people give him a chance in this fight but thats when wants the win more. Randy has got better with age and smarter. He would study Shogun and find a way to beat him. Randy by dec

I think as Randy would try to take him down, shogun would try to put him in his clinch and KO him.
In their 3rd fight, Vitor Belfort almost caught Randy with an armbar twice, so I think that Shogun has a great chance of beating him. Then again, Randy has shut me up before.

This fight would be closer then you'd think. Coleman kind fo showed that a great wrestler can get Shogun down, which gives me reason to believe that Couture can get him to the mat if he gets the chance. I could see it going either way, but I say Shogun would most likely TKO him.

Yeah, but shogun is still dangerous on his back.

Oh Shogun isnt one to defend the takedowns but beating him on his back is harder then most realise and I think Shogun is the best swarmer in the LHW division, hes overwhelming with his strikes.
