Rashad vs. Bisping Headline UFC 78 - Page 3

Lethal · 10-21-2007

Well, look at it this way...Liddell-Silva is mostly likely on....Shogun is out until March-May, Houston Alexander is gonna fight at 78 and isn't deserving of a title shot yet but is climbing the ladder, no offense to any of you, but DW probably doesn't care about Machida or thinks he is boring(I read an article that DW thinks Okami is boring and imo Okami is more exciting than Machida, but w/e) or undeserving, Vera won't drop, Hendo already had a title shot, and most likely Forrest-Jardine 2 will happen...I can see the winner of the latter rematch being more deserving, but the timing is what matters, DW won't want Rampage sitting out for more than what he should.

I'd rather see Rampage-Evans rather than Bisping-Rampage cuz Bisping isn't ready yet imo, he still needs to develop.

I think Rashad and Bisping are both developed fighters and will continue to get better but Rampage is just on a different level then both of those fighters and most LHW for that matter. I just dont think either fighters have anything to threatening to rampage. Maybe Rashad wrestling if he could lay and pray or something to that extent but either way it just wouldn't go down that way.

Yep, Rampage is too much for them.

In this fight I see Rashad winning. I'd hope it's by TKO or KO, but that would only happen if Rashad gets real aggressive which is what he is capable of, he just seems timid.

PS. Bisping said it himself (on sherdog)that he needs to develop more before being considered a threat and that he doesn't agree with him headlining a main event. he said in his opinion he doesnt deserve it yet....just thought id drop that in there
