Chuck Liddell Vs. Rashad Evans(Rumor or Truth?)-FOR UFC 71 IN CALIFORNIA

I HAVE HEARD THIS FROM A FRIEND OF MINE THAT IS HEAVILY INVOLVED IN MMA AND THE RUMORS THAT GO AROUND IN THE INTERNET. ABOUT 90% OF THE STUFF HE TELLS ME COMES TRUE. SO I AM WONDERING IF OTHERS HAVE HEARD THE SAME. THE RUMOR IS THAT THE UFC WAS FIXING A LIDDELL VS. GRIFFIN, BUT WHEN HE LOST TO JARDINE THAT PUT HIM BACK. AND NOW WITH THE DEVASTING K.O FROM RASHAD THAT PUTS HIM ON TOP. RASHAD AND JARDINE ARE FROM THE SAME GREG JACKSON CAMP SO I DONT THINK THEY WILL FIGHT. SO I ASK IF YOUR INPUT ON THIS SUBJECT.

Jardine is more likely imo, but neither have earned a shot.

It seems to me that this 'rumor' is more likely an educated guess since nothing said has been proven. we've been debating this possibility for a while

rashad did say he wanted time to mature his game and get some more wins under his belt but he also said if they offered him a title shot he would take it

as far as rashad vs chuck, i dont think theres a fight in the lhw division id want to see more

I'm a fan of Rashad's, but a title shot? Well, I suppose he'd be an idiot not to take it. I wouldn't blame Rashads' camp one bit if he took a shot at the belt, no more than I would Vera for taking 1.5 million dollars (which he isn't worth).

Having said all that - It's all speculation. I would like to see Liddell fight at least one person before Rampage. I wouldn't even be all that picky about the challenger, so long as Chuck defends his title and isn't safe guarded by Dana (though fuck knows that's what happened with the Wanderlai fight).

I like Evan's and I'd like to see him get a shot. If he gets offered a shot he should take it. Opportunity knocks only so often.

Rashad Evans will get ktfo. I'm sorry, but he's mid-carder at best right now. The only 205lbs *in the world* who can take him are the following. Note, they'd make some sweet fights here.

Shogun Rua
Wanderlei
Rampage
Nogueira
Arona

That's it. I don't even think Rashad could beat Bisping because his stand-up still isn't top level, and his takedown defense was W.E.A.K. Even if Salmon was a top wrestler, Rashad is a great wrestler. But honestly, wrestling is wrestling, striking is striking. You put the two together, you better be able to do both. I haven't seen Rashad do both in the same fight at least. If Dana honestly puts Rashad Evans in a fight against Liddell, he'll get canned. Then we can see Liddell Rampage 2.

i agree i think it would be a great fight when rashad is ready he prolly needs 1 or 2 more fights rashad vs rampage would also be a great fight maybe a #1 contender match or something
