    UFC 71

    Who wins Chuck Liddell Vs. Quinton Jackson?
    I say Chuck but I'm not a 100%, not like the Mayweather vs De La Hoya fight.
    People should learn endurance; they should learn to endure the discomforts of heat and cold, hunger and thirst; they should learn to be patient when receiving abuse and scorn; for it is the practice of endurance that quenches the fire of worldly passions which is burning up their bodies.

    Quiton is a beast, but any man will go down with an overhand right from Chuck. I think Chuck wants it more and I give him the edge. Tough to really predict as I think it will stay stand-up...a situation that always leads to interesting results.

    I'm rooting for Chuck mainly because I FUCKING HATE Jackson. Both are skilled fighters, but i do sincerely believe that Rampage is going down.

    watch these







    Either way I'm looking forward to watching it.

    Local boy Chuck all the way.

    My barber does Lidell's short-hawk. Let's get ready to rumble bitches... and don't be afraid to put a little money on it - makes everything more interesting. Even AI, thank you, Jordin, baby!

    Looks like Jackson gets gassed quickly. Plus I'm not sure that Pride fighters are at the same level as UFC fighters.

    Many are on the same level, if not more skilled. In fact, the best fighter to ever walk the planet is in Pride...Fedor.

    I don't want to be an ass, but no one who knows much about MMA makes a comment like that.

    Since MMA exploded I've heard the UFC versus Pride thing a million times, but it's just so off the mark.

    It's a "Which are faster - blue skis or green skis?" kind of thing.

    No offense - I understand why some people want to compare the organizations, but I also understand why some people want to compare blue skis and green skis.

    In this year of MMA upsets, I gotta go with Rampage.

    He dominated him the first time they fought. He took Chuck's right hand (or is that howitzer) and didn't hardly flinch. His strength is unreal, and if it goes to the ground like it did the first time, Rampage's superior wrestling will come into play. I am expecting it to be an awesome fight.

    Rampage by TKO, round two.

    The undercard looks really good too. Excited to watch SLC's Josh Burkman getting back in there.

    I'm comparing the athletes not the organizations.

    You're comparing the athletes based on the organizations they're with.

    Want Chuck to win, but it really is a coin toss. Rampage is his own worst enemy. If the right Rampage shows up Chuck could be in for a bad night.
    War Liddell!!!!!

    ...but whatever. Sorry, it's a pet peeve of mine.

    Back to your topic...

    ...I'm not sure who's going to win. But I'm pulling for Quinton.

    Quinton

    • Has already destroyed Chuck once
    • Is he the same fighter he was before he "got religion"?
    • Has he had enough time and fights to prepare?
    • Great strength and fitness
    • Well-rounded fighter
    • Very smart fighter - thinks well on his feet, can adjust strategy
    • Patient, goes for quality shots not quantity
    • No problem taking hard shots
    • Best chance to win: Rock Chuck in early stand-up, then take it down to the ground
    • What I want to see from him: Same as everyone else - smart fight that ends with a classic Rampage slam. <<< If you haven't seen it, you should.



    Chuck

    • Has already been murdered by Quinton
    • Has been doing his wasted rock-star routine a lot lately, so maybe his focus is off - or maybe it's a ruse
    • More well-rounded than he used to be, but still relies on the overhand right
    • Strong, but not as strong as Quinton
    • No problem taking hard shots
    • Not as smart or adaptive as Quinton, sticks to one gameplan, not a strategizer
    • Best chance to win: Quinton is tough as hell, a perfect overhand right could do it, but I can see Chuck's best chance being a rusty Quinton or a Quinton who gasses.
    • What I want to see: no eye-gouging from Chuck.
