Hollywood by whatever he feels like. The only advantage Rampage has will be size difference, Henderson is better pretty much everywhere else.

i agree henderson should win it

Im goin with Rampage because of the cage factor. Rampages last 3 fights were in the cage (2 in UFC and 1 in WEC) while Hendo hasnt been in the cage in a long time. Hendo is the superior wrestler, neither of them are known for their submissions game, Rampage imo has the technically better stand-up and better strike defence, Hendo may have a cardio advantage while Rampage will have a strength advantage. Itll be very close imo.

I voted for Hendo as well, and my predicition skills trump your bad luck dude.

If i can call a TKO win in the 3rd for Randy i can call a 4th round knock out for Hendo.

Also I think people forget that Hendo is prone to having his share of off nights: Misaki, Kondo (got the dec but Kondo was robbed), Lil Nog, Arona..........its gonna be very very close.


I hope you're right in being wrong Colm.....Im putting some money on Rampage just to give myself some added excitement for Saturday!

I think Hendo is in for a big surprise if he tries to strike with Rampage

Rampage to win by knockout in the 3rd. It'd be a shame if he lost the title so soon

And Page has gotten tooled by pretty much anyone with a decent clinch game.

It's all swings and roundabouts really.

That would be an unreal ending. Hendo has NEVER been knocked out or TKO stopped. Other than Nog it's only ever been Decisions.

chopperbyrne

Rampage knows what his strengths are and he won't want to go the distance or get in to a ground game with Hendo, so he'll go for the early KO.

I'm standing by my prediction.

If Page wins like that it really would cement all the improvements that he has been making lately!

Damn you for stealing my prediction!! Only joking, I agree, Hendo by 4th round KO. If he can beat big Nog the 2nd best HW in the world he can beat Rampage. Has anyone seen his team quest training on youtube? Its pretty cool, his strike coach was saying Rampage's weakness was knees and I couldnt stop laughing, I had just seen Wanderlei knee him to a pulp in PRIDE 28. Here are the links if you want to give it a gander http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEmkHsPQVnk

To be fair. I have to ask have you seen this RINGS fight? If i remember correctly that was one of weirdest decisions i have seen. Big Nog pretty much dominated... Then again i might remember wrongly. But RINGS had it's fair share of really wierd decisions and if i remember correctly this was one of them. But still great from Hendo to not get subbed in RINGS where there was no strikes on ground.

ill give you house and car and wife if that happens lol:eek:

Don't get me wrong. I f he doesn't get that early KO or stoppage then he'll lose, but I think he'll get it.

Page beat Lindland I recall? Pages weakness is Muay-Thai clinch and knee combos.

I think it'll be a very different fight than the all-out war that people expect.

I believe Rampage will adopt a Chuck Liddell sprawl-and-brawl style, keeping Henderson at a distance and picking him off with his greatly improved stand-up. So I'm picking Rampage by decision.

Hopefully after all the type, it won't turn into a Sanchez/Koscheck snorefest....

Great fight!

Great "technical" fight at some points, wouldn't say great "fight" though

Rampage deserved it, I think Dan was going out so hard at the start to KO him he ran out of steam, both gave their all though. OK good fight so

Dave!

Good fight!

Hendo is such a good wrestler! But Rampage dominated the stand-up. From around round 3 onwards, as soon as Hendo got so much as a tap on the head, he dropped his hands and went limp! But Rampage didn't seem to capitalise on it for some reason. Even as the fight was ending, Hendo went down and you could see Rampage hesitate! The bell woulda went before it was stopped, but still. Rampage had some good skills on the ground... considering Hendo is bloody awesome in that regard, Quinton was able to do well to prevent him getting a submission in, and also he had some rather cool escapes by rolling and so on (he has a wrestling background doesn't he).

I expected Quinton to win, but thought he'd get a knockout and am a bit disappointed that he didn't really! Oh well! Good fight
