UFC 114: Quinton "Rampage" Jackson vs "Suga" Rashad Evans  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 97/100. boybato (2210) 2 years ago

This is going to be a very big fight. Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and "Suga" Rashad Evans have become some bitter rivals and there is no better way to settle the score than in the octagon. Jackson is out from the UFC for more than a year already and it's yet to be seen as to whether or not he's still got it. Evans on the other hand had very impressive victories over high quality fighters in the UFC and is considered as one of the top ranked light heavyweights in the world.

This is going to be a war and for me, I'm giving the fight slightly to Evans. Evans is a much more technical fighter than Jackson. He's faster and quicker and got some heavy hands. Jackson's time away from the UFC might also be a factor. Evans via TKO.

OMG! I have found a UFC discussion. Erik mama is in heavan now.I LOVE UFC.It is just the best thing to me since apple pie.

Rampage is on me right now, well it is a t-shirt of course.He is one of my all time,if not very favorite fighters ever to gravce the octagon.
So a Big BOOOOOOOOOOOOO to you for picking Rashad!thumbdown

Anyways, I think Rashad is a good fighter.I won't give him great though. There is NO WAY he is going to beat Rampage. I mean, REALLY?

Sure Rashad is quick.But he has lost hid last few fights which lowers his confidence. No matter what Rampage is a very intimidating man.He is a beast. He is just plain mean. Even with him being out for a year he'l have no problem.Hea has been an athlete all his life.What does worry me is that he has had issues with Dana, and I dont know if UFC is suill in his heart. If it is till in his heart, it will be a piece of cake.

He might get hit,but he has a hard chin and can take a punch. Just when you think you got him,he'll pick that azz up way in the air and put that azz to sleep with a poewrbomb.cheering

Plus add to it the beef the two have already been having, and I say hands down my boy Rampage is going to take him, KO...Go 2 sleep Rashad...blink

In Evans last 6 fights, he got a draw on Tito Ortiz (first of the six), and won over Michael Bisping, Chuck Liddell, Forrest Griffin, and Thiago Silva (last of the six). The only loss he got was against Lyoto Machida. 2 of those 4 wins came from KOs through strikes and those are really big names to his credit.

As a fighter, Evans only loss came from Machida and a draw coming from Ortiz, so technically, that's basically only 1 loss and 1 draw in his record. I don't think that it is "lost his last few fights". Evans is holding a 19-1-1 record including his Ultimate Fighter record. As for Rampage, he last set foot on the octagon on March 7, 2009. I don't see his dispute with Dana White as detrimental to his game, Rampage will still be Rampage and I don't think White will intervene with the results of the fight just because they've got some issues in between.

Another thing to consider for Evans is that he's helped train Georges St. Pierre in GSP's fight against Dan Hardy. Though Evans helped GSP train, for sure he's got something learned in return.

I thought he had lost since his fight against Machida.What I meant about the Dana White issues is if Rampage still has enough love and support for the UFC after the way he claims White has treated him.

I won't take anything away from Eashad.He is a great fighter, lightning fast. He is a very good fighter with mad love for the sport,fighting, and UFC. But still, Rampage is just mean .He's more powerful, has more skills. He's one of those guys you kow is going to kick your butt once he is mad.But he has lost a lot since movies and all came along. Even in PRIDE when Rampgae was beat by Machida he was still fighting, going strong.

It will be a GREAT fight and I hope it actually takes place.I'd do anything to see it live as it will probably be the last time to see Rampage fight.

One of the great things about MMA is it's unpredictability. Fighters aren't guaranteed a win because anything could happen. Grapplers are winning via KOs and stand up fighters are winning through submissions. The Evans-Jackson fight isn't exempted. Anything can happen in this fight but definitely this is going to be a very explosive one.

This is going to be a close one. I think this is a classic fight between a brawler and a technical fighter. Although Evans is a more technical fighter but I still believe on Rampage strength and power. I'll be giving Jackson a slight advantage..aaaawwooooo!!!! go Rampage.


myLot reputation of 97/100. boybato (2210)  2 years ago

Jackson's strength and power is definitely something worth noting. Another thing to consider is Rampage's experience. Evans had 21 fights under his belt (19-1-1) while Rampage have 37 (30-7-0). I'm still confident about Jackson but ring rust might take it's toll. Anderson Silva had it against Demian Maia. But this one could be different because there's bad blood between these 2 fighters.

Anderson Silva...one of the best in the sport also.thumbup
I think the sheer nature of Rampage will give him the fight against Rashad. It is a win he wants badly, ninjaand I am sure he has been training. It's going to be a great fight and great to see Rashad go to sleep! hehe!blink

I don't know if Evans has what it takes to beat Mr. T 2010. I mean, can Rashad kick a cardboard door down like Jackson did on TUF 10? I know he can step up with the trash talk, but that won't win him the fight.

In all seriousness, I hope Jackson gets his head caved in. That guy really rubs me the wrong way.


myLot reputation of 97/100. boybato (2210)  2 years ago

All the talk really hypes up the fight. Both Jackson and Evans really hate each other.

Maybe its a factor as he took some time filming a movie the A-Team and that probably would be a factor. As what you have observe as these two guys were coaches from the TV series The Ultimate Fighter, Evans is more on the "coach" rather than Jackson as he is like doesn't really mind about his fighter. I would think its Evans but I will not take away Jackson's power punch, if it landed on Evans, its lights out for Evans.


myLot reputation of 97/100. boybato (2210)  2 years ago

If Jackson is in full shape then definitely it's going to be a very long night for Evans (or maybe a short one). Jackson is definitely the much stronger one between them but Evans is the quicker and more technical one. I just can't wait to see this fight this weekend, after all the words that has been said and the love that is lost, this is definitely going to be a very big fight.
