Ufc 130

Rampage came pretty close to beating Rashad in that fight. He almost knocked him out.

huh? Are you talking about that 10 second flurry in the 3rd round?

[Luke]

I agree.

Considering Rashad has already beat him, and pretty decisively too, I'm hoping money comes in on him. I'd take Rampage at +200, I think.

I'd probably take Page at +200 too but I doubt the line moves much either way

Didn't he drop Rashad with punches and get on top of him and rain more down? Then Rashad wrestled his way out of it?

[edman5555]

I think the fight was a little closer than you remember. Jackson was coming off a long layoff also. I favor Rashad of course, but Jackson is always game.

The fight wasn't close at all. Rashad won every part of that fight except for about 60 seconds of it

[edman5555]

Yeah but in that 60 seconds he almost got knocked out. Rampage was also coming off of a long layoff and may have been rusty. I favor Rashad but now it's him who is coming off a long layoff against a potentially more game Rampage.

Rampage did land one good punch.

Then he "rained down punches" that pretty much hit nothing but air.

If Rampage had been a little more patient after dropping Rashad then maybe he could've made those punches count, but he didn't.

Yeah but in that 60 seconds he almost got knocked out.

You're always saying that nigga's are almost getting knocked out.

Rashad got knocked DOWN. Neither you nor I have any idea how close he was to actually losing consciousness, especially since he looked a little flustered but not at all like his head wasn't in the game anymore.

Rashad vs Thiago Silva looked a lot more like an almost knockout to me.

[edman5555]

It's good to have a skeptic around. Anyways, if you bet Rashad you should take him by Decision.

[edman5555]

Which I *might* do.

[edman5555]

Or maybe Rashad by decision + Rampage.

that was the 10 second flurry I was talking about

He's denying he did anything? No way

I read he tested positive in one sample and negative the other.
