IMO no.
I doubt it, with all the new LH's from pride and even Houston looking great so far, I don't think his 1 dimensional fighting style will be able to beat alot of these guys. Rampage exposed him as very beatable.That being said he holds 2 impressive wins over couture.

As long as Rampage is the Champ of course not cause its proven Rampage is Chucks father but I expect Shogun to get a title shot and beat Rampage next year and Chuck will probablly retire Wanderlei so I expect a Shogon-Liddell fight next year not picking him but I think his chances are better vs Shogun.

Not at 205 no.....Not in the UFC no...
UFC's 205 is going to be pride dominated from now on in fro the next 3 years at least, with Quinton,Shogun and Hendo all destroying Chuck.

Yeah, Pride has sure made a great impression so far. :lol:
Har har har, you crack me up....
....:-(

Nah, they're actually about half and half, but I doubt Hendo would beat Chuck anyway, and I think a prime Chuck has the skills to beat Shogun, but probably not the Chuck of today.
not the chuck of today?
so he's past his prime as well, so the chuck of when? he's not that far off beating couture, or did that loss suddenly make him shot.

Chuck will absolutely destroy Jardine however, and im inclined to agree with above in saying he is more suited to fighting Shogun than Hendo or rampage, but i dont think he wins against Rua anyway, but their would be a chance, however slim it is
I don't think he walks through jardine, I think that will be a good fight and I wouldn't be surprised to see Jardine upset him.

No way in hell Chuck retires Wanderlei.

Why not its obvious Chuck will put Wanderlei to sleep and in the hospital for a 3rd straight time.

More than likely, yes he will.

I could see Chuck being champ again. Style wise, he doesn't match up with Rampage very well, but I don't buy the idea that he could never beat Jackson. When you punch like Chuck, no one is totally safe in the ring against him.
If he beats Jardine (which he almost certainly will) and then Wanderlei (which is very possible), then he'll likely get another shot at the title.
so, who gets the next shot at rampage?

Houston Alexander or Bisping would be good though both havent done enough i think Alexander would give him a good fight

Shogun - He is largely viewed as the best Lt Heavy, and he completely destroyed him last time
---If Shogun loses
Chuck - He deserves a shot at the title he held for so long. He was dominating the sport until he lost. Who cares who the champ is, he deserves a shot if he wants one
---If Jardine beats Chuck
Tito - Yes. He lost to Chuck, but that is a bad style matchup for him. If he beats Rashad impressively I would definitely like to see him fight rampage. I think it would be a good fight as well.......I know they said they wouldn't fight each other, but they will if the UFC tells them to :deal
-----If Tito loses or looks bad against Rashad
Wanderlei gets the shot!!!!!!!

Chuck could very well get the shot after fighting Jardine. He's hugely popular and I would also agree that he deserves a shot since his history in the organization is so stellar.
I'd still like to see him fight Wanderlei after the Jardine fight, though.
If Chuck, Shogun, and Wanderleigh win their next fights it should be one of those guys. but likely Chuck or Sogun because they are fighting in a couple weeks.

Hey, you can laugh, but you can't ever totally dismiss a guy like Alexander. Rampage caught Liddell and so could Alexander.
Hec, how many people expected Serra to beat GSP. UFC has proven to be an excellent sport for upsets.
Obviously I'd favour Liddell, but his victory isn't a given. Very few victories ever are.

Hey, let him laugh.
Right now, right here at this point in thier respective careers.......I think that Alexander would at the very least be LIVE underdog.
That guy looks like a beast.
