True, but it's easier to get KOed that early if you're not that great 🙂He's gonna get tuned up his next fight too unless they give him a tomato can.
He is a top 10 WW, but I think he'd do better at MW which if what he was b4 coming to the ufc. I would have rather seen AS vs Shields than Gsp vs JS.

Koscheck?He looked impressive in Strikeforce fighting cans and third rate UFC cast offs but Nick isn't a top ten fighter. The idea that he was about to get a title shot was almost laughable (not Dan Hardy laughable... but still pretty bad). If Diaz beats BJ at least he will have done something worth talking about, but right now it just looks like the only reason he got a title shot is because Dana is mining the bottom of the barrel for anyone not named Fitch.
Completely agree. Diaz has not beat anyone worth talking about, and is not even in the ufc. Its hilarious for anyone to think anymore of him.

I think he'd have lost regardless. He's not that great. He's lost 2 of his 3 UFC fights & they robbed Kampmann in the other one. He's gonna have more losses coming his way in the UFC & he'll NEVER be champ.
I doubt anyone ever thought he'd be champ.
If Jones is the same Jones who fustigated Shogun, he's gonna beat the hell out of Rampage. Rampage does have the power to end it, but I don't think he'll connect with a good enough shot to do it before Jones mauls him.

Originally posted by StyleTimeI'm not trying to mislead, truth is he's looked horrible in ALL his UFC fights. He's not been impressive @all. He's not that good. More losses to come 4this guy against anybody worth a damn.
That's a bit misleading though. One loss was to GSP dude. As for Kampmann, meh. Shields looked horrible and Kampmann still couldn't do much.I doubt anyone ever thought he'd be champ.
I-drop you definitely know what your talking about.
I want rampage to win but I really doubt thats going to happen. With the fact that jones is huge, athletic, extremely awkard/deadly striking, extremely long reach, and excellent wrestling background, i dont see rampage doing much though. Lets all hope for a lucky punch✅

Rampage is going to light up Jones with counter punches and ko him this Saturday. 😎

Shogun had mad ring rust coming of his injuries / surgeries, fighting at 100% he'd beat Bones in a rematch.
Originally posted by StyleTimeDitto, but Rampage lost that fight IMO. I was happy w/the decision because that balanced out Shogun getting robbed the 1st time he fought Machida
I'm not saying Rampage will win, but Rampage has better boxing and wrestling than Shogun. I think it'll be a better fight than people think. People counted Rampage out against Machida too, and Rampage is always one hit away from ending a fight.
Originally posted by srankmissingninNah. Jones is too big, too strong & too new school for him. 😈

Originally posted by MindsetDouble nah. If he beats Rampage will ya'll give him his props?
Jones is the most overrated fighter on the planet right now.
Even if Jones winds up being some crazy 5+ year title holder, Mindset has a point. While he did have an impressive showing against Shogun, we've still got several top fighters that match up well against him on paper.
He could be the missing corner of a GSP/Silva triangle, or he could just be a fighter who hasn't been tested yet. Time(and possibly Rampage) will tell.

We will have to see. From his stats, wrestling, and how badly he beat shogun (i know this is one fighter, he might not been at his best but c'mon, he clearly, easily beat him) i would say he is more near a gsp silva triangle. I could be wrong, and he could end up how machida was (not losing till an actual GOOD fighter comes along) but so far his stats and showing tell me other wise.
