    Pretty true. Theoretically it should be a bad matchup for Liddel, Just like Wand is a bad matchup for Rampage.

    Wand, vulnerable to an accurate striker. Thing is, I don't think anybody at light heavy or below can really defend against Wands knees. Once he gets that thai clinch, he's pretty much lethal. If he can get that hold on Liddel, he's getting teeth knocked out.

    Still. Very vulnerable. Wand will use kicks, he has them in his arsenal but his best defense seems to be his offense. Something Chuck should thrive on.

    I still don't like the idea of Wand retiring. Look at rampage, he was basically destroyed by Wand twice, Shogun as well. It looked like he was through, and like he had taken too many beatings as well. Look at him now.

    If Wand got a tune up, same thing might happen for him. Wands confidence and aggression seemed lacking. I really wonder how this fight will effect him if he wins it. I'm actually hoping he does, would make for a great showdown with Rampage.

    Yeah but the diffrence is Rampage hasnt lost his fire.Wandy on the other hand turned very gunshy. Mentally i think his done with the sport and he knows it.All his fighting on these days is fumes and his own pride.
