I am disappointed in the fight, but I wouldn't dog Rampage so hard. Evans won by decision, it's hardly like he kicked his ass. Both fighters knocked each other wobbly at one point, and I think Rampage hung on and recovered better. Many of us were looking for a big slam, etc., etc., and it sucks that he didn't plant Evans at least once. I think Rampage would have been better if he spent his last few months in camp instead of playing movie star.

 

He was training. At Wolfslair with Bisping among others.

at least sonnen will be entertaining to watch against silva. If he is able to take him down i think he'll do a good job from the top. Or he will get his head knocked the fucked off in the process. If anything Sonnen will be willing to fight which hasnt happened recently with Silvas opponents.

He will definitely work,which will make Anderson work,which is good.

This. Chael knows how to hype a fight too. I wasn't interested in this at all but the way he's running his mouth has me interested.

 

No ones come at Anderson like this either. Maybe he'll get in his head. (doubt it.)

 

Chael Sonnen confronted at fan expo:

You guys seem to have already forgot Rashad just leaned on rampage about a third of the time - more of an athelete strategy VIA kos vs sanchez than a fighter one. I stand by my statement of rampage being a better and more experienced fighter...

 

As for his training, clearly the movie played a part. Also I think wolfslair is a retarded camp for someone like rampage to be in considering their streingth lies in the bounding/striking, which not only ISNT rampages fortè, but isn't where he needs improvement.

 

Wolfslair sucks as a camp, and he needs to step his game up or retire... I however don believe for a second he really trained harder than he ever had in his life.
