Re: UFC 71 - Quinton Jackson versus Chuck Liddell 2

You'd be wrong if you think that Chuck didn't have that takedown defense against Jackson as well. I think you need to watch that fight again, because right after this fight is when he went on a tier and just dominated the division.

Jackson DID hold Chuck down in their last fight, he's MUCH stronger then Randy physically, and held Chuck down like he was nothing .. and rained down about 70 punches on him during the fight. Rampage also DOMINATED the standup. Chuck threw almost no kicks in that fight, and it was a slugfest, which Rampage got the better of. I've seen training videos of Chuck, and he seems to be working on his high kicks again . so maybe we'll see Chuck KO Rampage with a kick like he did Sobral. This isn't the same Rampage he fought, not after Rampage's brutal KO loss to Wanderlei..

Yes, there are a lot of top tier fighters in the UFC -now-. LHW? No. HW. Yes.

Mirko "Cro Cop", Antonio Nogueira, Andrei Arlovski, Fabricio Werdrum (If he can find his groove.), Gabriel Gonzaga (If he beats Randy.), Randy Couture, Tim Sylvia, and I suppose you can't forget Heath Herring .. and the fact that UFC has signed Fedor. :D

- LHW however, UFC doesn't have a really ... deep division.
- MW isn't really.
- WW is stacked however.
- LW may be in the future.
