Here you can see Couture practicing pretty much how the fight went: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBOOaHnW078[/ame]
He has always been a great strategist, the only time he didn't was in the final 2 Chuck fights. In the first fight he was outboxing Couture, so he figured that he would have to do that again, and well, it proved to be a mistake.
Hey I give props to a lot of other fighters, I do feel that Randy is over rated.....I think you should deal with this.
Chuck REALLY adjusted well to Couture in the second and third fight. In the first fight Randy exploited a glaring weakness in Chuck's boxing game, the fact that chuck (maybe due to his karate background?) resets a lot and backs up and is completely exposed while he does this. Every time Chuck tried to reset in that first fight Randy would come in with punches. Chuck fixed that problem to a large degree in their later fights and that's why Randy lost.
