The Rematch
It's bound to happen sometime this year, the rematch between Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Chuck "The Iceman" Liddell. Last time they fought under Pride rules on Jackson home ring, now it's time for him to step into the octagon under UFC rules, can Jackson go 2-0 against Liddell or will the Iceman silence his critics and beat Rampage. Who do you think will win?

I voted Rampage, but he will only win if the old Rampage shows up for the UFC.

Rampage hasn't been his "old self" since losing to Silva, when he was in Pride. |

Chuck will have a much better chance with 5 minute rounds vs. the 10 minute first round they had in PRIDE during their first meeting. Chuck was gassed for sure. I think Rampage will win he is superior in boxing. Chuck swings wide, Rampage throws alot of straight punches and outjabs Chuck. Usually technical fighters can beat wild punchers and Chuck throws wild compared to Rampage. Rampage by TKO

I don't buy the old & new Rampage stuff. They both have alot on the line and it'll go to who is hungrier.
I'd like to see the fight between Rampage & Eastman first, but I'm still saying Rampage will beat Chuck again.
When you look at the way the first fight went, it woudn't have mattered if it was in the UFC octagon or the Pride ring. Rampage beat Chuck in Chucks' own element - the standup.

*edit* wtf double post? I'm pretty sure I hit the edit button, not reply. Sorry all.
btw about the 5 min rounds Cabby. I see your point, but Rampage had Liddells' number from the get go.

^^ Agreed, I watched their first fight not long ago and Chuck doesn't look much different from then. Since then he hasn't fought that many seasoned strikers either (Being generous I'll say Vitor, Vernon &.....?) which makes me wonder how he'll fair in a real war with someone who knows how to both give & receive powerful blows. Rampages fight with Wandy was very suspect, but if he's back in shape, like he says he is, then I'll have to go with Rampage. A tough one to call though.
