Wow, I thought for a second I logged on to shitdo.....I mean sherdog, thankfull Poly and jimmie are on the spot to tell this guy whats up. Thanks guys. This thread is as near stupid as you can get, I understand he is entitled to his opinion but when it is this far out of wack and he offers NO reasons to back his statement, I can't stand it. What went so wrong in ones life to be so twisted in the head to be thinking like this guy? I really wonder sometimes.
why is Rashad unbeaten ? why did Rashad KO Chuck Liddel ? i mean the so called GREAT of the UFC Randy Couture got iced by Liddel btw If you dislike a fighter makes no difference to the result IMO Rashad is a winner,check the stats!
Randys old but can still fight and isnt that what MMA is about ? Gonzaga is a goon :huh The only weakness this guy even has is heart but if he gets going early he can beat almost anyone. He has good leg kicks and obviously a head kick id say ask Cro Cop but he cant remember but just ask Couture how his arm got broke,Gonzaga has good takedowns watch him catch Cro Cops bodykick and take him down right away his GNP is solid and the man has incredible BJJ skills hes a world champion but maybe you didnt know that. Nog is past it and your point is what exactly ? Hes still one of the greatest fighters out there what exactly is Rashad going to do takedown him down and hug ? Ahh no he will be triangled so fast his dumbass wife will be to shocked to scream her ass off.
First off Brad Imes is big but he sucks let Rashad try to do it to a good big guy like Tim Sylvia. Bonnar is 6'4 and hes a Light Heavyweight so your Bonnar thing is pointless. Rashad isnt nearly the wrestler Kevin Randleman is and saying hes smarter is like saying Chuck hits harder p4p then Nick Diaz.
Time will reveal all and sort the wise from the fools btw Rashad Evans UFC HW champ has a nice ring to it,dont you think Jimmie ?
Rashad has about as much of a chance as beating the premier MMA heavyweights as me beating Bob Sapp in an armwrestle. Rashad just beat Liddell. CHUCK LIDDELL. A guy whos lost 3 of his last 4 fights. And I dont think you could lose those 3 fights in more embarrassing fashion than the way he lost them. Rashad is a solid fighter but guys at heavyweight are so MUCH bigger, stronger than any LHW's. It honestly makes a huge difference.
No it doesnt infact Evans holding any belt has no appeal to me at all. Let him try and win the 205 belt first. Griffin is the Champ for a reason and it feels weird me saying this but at this point hes much better then Chuck Liddell is because Forrest Griffin has no real weaknesses exept for possibly his chin. I doubt Forrest will chase Evans around throwing a arm punch uppercut with his left down at his waist. Forrest will keep working and working.
Rashad has yet to show he can set his takedowns up with punches and leg kicks like Randy Couture has. Its not about height man its about the bone structure I cant see Fedor making 205 but Rashad looks like he could almost make 185 hes just a smaller man. Kendall Grove is like 6'8 does that mean he can kick everyone in the Heavyweight divisons ass ?
How exactly is he crippled ? Hes competed his entire career with the rib and liver thing so now its finally creeping up on him and making him crippled ? What the **** is your defintion of crippled because he still seems to get around fine by me. Last time I checked hes still doing damn well in fights his only loss in the last few years is a close one to Josh Barnett that he avenged.
fair enough,I would pick Lesnar to beat Rashad but Rashad can sure compete and maybe win even against Lesnar,the rest of the UFC HWs Evans could beat any of them People on this thread are making Rashad out to be a can,it is like talking to 5 year olds around here
