This got me thinking since i saw the other thread about rampage-ortiz. I remember rampage saying he didn't want to fight in the ufc at the time when ortiz was the champion because they were friends. So who do you think wins this match up? When ortiz was ruling the ufc against rampage when he was knocking out liddell in pride fc.
:good the only thing is rampage takedown defense is not as good as liddell. So it would be harder for him to get the knockout since ortiz back then would just take you down and ground and pound your ass.
True, think it's good enough to make Tito work for it though and Page is strong as **** to hold down, even for Tito.
I don't think it'd have been all that competitive. Ortiz almost always got found out when he went up against somebody with decent wrestling. And Jackson's wrestling is pretty awesome when he wants it to be. Stoo's right - its Ortiz vs Liddell all over again.
for me it depends on if its a 3 round or 5 round fight in 3 rounds rampage wins 5 rounds ortiz wins based mostly on what i saw in the wandy/ortiz fight
Jackson is still a boring fighter. I doubt he'd throw a punch unless somebody else threw it first hence why him and Evans was such a snoozer.
You no nothing about Rampage do you? [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wubQEviXhig&feature=related[/ame]
Exactly. From slamming guys like Igor and Arona to beating the snot out of Chuck, Rampage was one of the most exciting fighters to watch in his prime.
