Quinton Jackson vs Wanderlei Silva, part 3

Im going for Rampage by KO. Its pretty amazing to think Rampage was able to come back after those two brutal losses to Wandy. But Wandys finished. He hasnt been the same since the OWGP.

 

So a 36 second obliteration of a then top 5 LHW doesn't impress you?

 

I wouldnt read to much into that. Impressive yes but 36 seconds isnt any amount of time to evaluate a guy like Silva who has been gun shy since he fought Mark Hunt. Jaridine is just too inconsistent. Wayne Alexander did the same thing to him aswell.

 

I don't see much of difference in Rampage so that he can beat Silva.

Just like Rampage has Liddell's number, Silva has his.

 

in a wand fan for life. wand is redeticated and page has had a mental break down. his mental state has always been and issue. as well chute boxe fighters seem to be his weakness. wand by ko second round . war wand

 

Id give Rampage the advantage if he can stay out of the clinch. His Muay Thai has yet to improve since the last bout 4 years ago just use the Shogun and Forrest fights for evidence.

 

I don't know man...i'm not gonna vote cause i'm really uncertain on this one. Several months ago i woulda said Rampage. But i'm not sure anymore.

He lost against Griffin. Yes it was a close decision but he still got outpointed and the way he fought in that one wouldn't work vs wanderlei.

At the same time...wanderlei is past his prime. (in my opinion his rematch against Crocop was the last nail in the coffin )...as soon as that guy started to be too cautious...his career took a 180 turn. (it probably started when he fought Mark Hunt)

but he seems very happy now and in top form + he annihilated Jardine.

So i'd say it' s a big ? at the moment.

Which makes this 3rd opus even more interesting.

This is gonna be ****ing awesome !

When you pair these two together , wild **** happens. Pretty much like when you have a Hunt vs Lebanner fight. Or Nog vs Barnett. some match ups are perfect like that.

 

Should be a great fight, I think Wand got his confidence back after his big win against Jardine and rampage has had recent probs. I'm still not sure who to take yet. but I think Wand is in Rampage's head, it's hard to forget beatings like that.

 

I like to believe that Rampage has grown as a fighter since his earlier fights with Wanderlai whereas Silva seems to be on the decline. However, in this encounter, I have to go with the man that's already 2-0 in this series. Wanderlai for the KO again.

 

Jackson TKO2.

 

id go with rampage

 

In a cage i think Wand will struggle with Page but in a ring i think Wand takes it.
I believe this fight depends on which Page shows up, if its the one that
fought Forrest he'l lose but if its the Page that beat Henderson then i gotta go with Page via GNP Stoppage.

 

Rampage WILL NOT be taking this lightly. Its he`s shot at redemption and a chance to put another nail in Wandys coffin.
