That's what people were thinking about Rich his second time, too.

Just saying.

Keep in mind their first two fights were in PRIDE which had a ring and rules that favor strikers, while the UFC cage and rules favor wrestlers.

Rampage might be able to lay and pray his way to a win, whereas PRIDE had more frequent and quicker stand-ups

Cant wait for these fights... I dont feel confident in making any picks..

Rampage vs Wandy is tough to call. Can he really beat down rampage 3 times? I can't imagine this going the way it did before.

Mir vs Nog doesnt look tough to call.. you would thing Nog all the way. The only question is.. is nog finally slowing down? Has it all caught up to him yet? He walks a little like Frankenstein... but i think he always has.

I see Rashad vs Forrest going to a decision. Who knows who comes out on top. My bet would be Rashad.. but i hope Forrest pulls it out.

I'm actually kinda worried about this too. I mean, Nog in his last two fights has looked, I think, the worst he ever has. He still won, obviously, but he didn't look great doing so.

one of my friends was fighting in a King of the Cage event up in Michigan and we were there. They had Herb Dean as the ref and I swear to God half the time it didn't even look like Dean was paying attention. It's a running joke between my friends and I how any fight that Herb Dean refs is likely to have nasty shit go on cuz he's busy thinking about his plans for the next day, or how hard he's gonna plow one of the ring girls :lol

Damn!!! Wanderlei left himself wide open and got chinned!

Good for Rampage, he needed that win over Wanderlei.

Damn really wanted Silva to win. But dude got knocked the fuck out. He could have easily won it too. All he had to do was continue with the leg kicks then wait for the clinch in a later round. Horrible game plan.
