Rampage by KO. I'll be honest, I'm not sure how good Rashad's whiskers are but Rampage has huge power. Meanwhile Rampage has a solid chin and better boxing/stand-up.

I can't see it going to the ground tbh. Rashad seems confident enough to stand mostly, except for the stoppage in his last bout. Even if it did go to the ground I think Rampage could survive and get up or if he's on top pound him out. Would be a very entertaining bout.

Rampage KO.
I've seen Evans hurt before, and Jackson has that technical boxing, and that great power to knock him out, + he is hungry to get his belt back.

I think Rashad has the tools to stay on top for a long time.

rashad is weird. the guy never really impressed me.....tito ortiz beat him clearly imo. the bisping fight was nothing special either.

and now what: he is the champ and built up that massive winning streak. jackson looks bigger, harder hitting...........but i kinda get the feeling that evans will pull this one out.

You have poor understanding of this logic, Jardine is not consistent at all and has not improved as an MMA fighter.

Evans is Honda consistent and consistently getting stronger, faster and more skilled, he is on a growth curve, Jardine fluctuates from being good to shit, Rashad is 10 times the fighter he was when he won TUF, make sense.

Rashad always seems to be losing his fights on points only to make a stunning comeback knocking his opponent out. Or thats how the last couple of his fights have gone.

I just can't see him hanging back losing rounds and then KOing Quinton. You need to be super aggressive with Rampage constantly being in his face and imposing yourself on him. Moving away, throwing sparseful amount of punches/kicks isn't going to work. Rampage will be in Rashads face the entire time, throwing hard punches at him, clinching him, taking him down etc etc

Rashad can't led Rampage win rounds off him, and just out of the blue get a KO, Rampage has too good a chin for that. He needs to be worn down.

So on this basis, I see Rampage winning a decision.

I used to say the same thing about Rashad myself. He does keep wining though & although he isn't the best in any 1 part of the game he is well rounded & that's why he wins fights IMO.

I voted for Rampage simply because I think he's got the experience & chin edge and I think this fight will be won & lost in an exciting striking match.

Who knows, I could be wrong & maybe Rashad can take it to the ground and get a ref stoppage or pull out a sub......................

pull out a sub? that's a joke lol? never attempted a sub in the UFC and, his GnP might have improved, but he sure wont be able to take Rampage out with GnP.

Rashad has solid wrestling...............I could see an armbar or a choke out.

Still favor Rampage's experience & chin.

sure, Rashad has very good wrestling, but you can be SURE that he wont win with an armbar. Rampage is just too experienced for that, and Rashad dont have those sub skill vs a vet like Rampage
