I agree. Wanderlei is going to prove himself again. He's better, he's got the punches, he's got what it takes.

Actually, Tyson didn't do any weight-training for Sherk. Those bulky legs are genetic (I have the same thing). People's bodies change, Tyson has said before that he walks around at 185. He is a big lightweight, because he is genetically massive.

man, i love these december super cards. this one even tops ufc 79 nemesis! were practically seeing 3 main event caliber fights in one night.

im most excited for the wandy/page fight. rampage has improved somewhat since their last encounter, and the cage will benefit him greatly. im going with page by tko, he's shown great power as of late, and if he gets a takedown were not gonna see an early standup like in their last fight.

this'll be the first fight in a while where forrest wasn't the underdog. i think he'll use a similar gameplan to what he used against page. i doubt he'll finish rashad unless it goes to the ground and he gets a submission. forrest will most likely outpoint rashad on the feet and pickup a unanimous decision.

as for nog/mir i think nog will control most of the fight. on the ground their pretty well matched, but nog will dominate the standup. mir won't want a piece of nog's standup, whereas nog will be comfortable wherever the fight goes.


im hoping okami ko's dean lister also so a.silva can get a good challenge and avenge the DQ loss all at the same time.

i'm taking rampage in this one too....i think wanderlei is on his way out of mma and rampage is still going up

Bazza89

It certainly didn't look like that in the Jardine fight.

I'm taking Wandy but I think it will be a lot closer than some people are saying. People forget how competitive the first two fights were (especially the second one) and seem to just remember the finishes. UFC refs will be happy to just let Rampage control Wand if he stays kind of active whereas in Pride you really had to be trying to finish to not get stood up.

I could definitely see Quinton taking a UD but I'm leaning towards Wand TKO late 2nd round.

Meshuggeth

Sent this to the UFC via their youtube channel. Probably will do nothing, but its worth a try (like that CroCop email).

Hellboy

I seem to be the only one that thinks Rampage will beat Wand.

joppp

u srs?

But seriously now with the added fights this card is seriously boneriffic! Especially if Forrest/Rashad turns out exiting.

I used to think Wandy was maybe on his way out of MMA after losing three times in a row, but he really got a nice confidence booster in the Jardine fight, and he's facing someone he loves to knee in the face, so he'll be motivated to kick a little ass.

Of course, Rampage can win. NSAC ref's aren't like Pride ref's. I seriously doubt there'd be stand-ups if Rampage starts landing in Silva's guard.

a quick KO over Jardine was a nice boost, but it doesn't give me enough confidence to think he could beat Quinton at this point...he didn't look good against chuck either
