Lately in the UFC the Champions have been dropping like flies. First it was Rich Franklin, then Tim Slyvia, then Matt Hughes and then Georges St Pierre. This Saturday Quinton Rampage Jackson will continue that trend with what I predict to be a first round knock out. If you saw the first fight (See video below) Jackson laid a whipping to Chuck that was embarrassing. He was gibbled from the opening ding of the bell. I really don't see how Chuck can beat Jackson in their rematch.

First of all Rampage is the exact same fighter Chuck is except he throws and much heavier punch. There will be no secret in this fight as both fighters will stand toe to toe and one guy will be carried out. Well for all you UFC fans out their Chuck will get KO’d real badly Saturday. Chuck has not fought a guy with as much power as Jackson has. Rampage has much heavier hands and is essential a more powerful version of Liddell.

Chuck does not have the power that a Mauricio Shogun Rua or Silva has and Liddell has a great power slam and the power to lift and throw chuck around. He won’t be going for any take down or submissions in this fight.

The fight will play out like this: Bell rings, both fighter touch gloves. Rampage rushed in and put Chuck to the cage picks him up slams him and then process to beat Chuck until the ref stops the fight.

Bottom Line: Chuck has not fought any fighter with as much punching power as he does. If you saw the first Pride fight he did not know what to do once he found out that he has more power than him, so he retreating ended up getting beat like a rented mule. Most guys don’t press the attack against Chuck and when Rampage presses the action he will fold. I really don’t Chuck is taken this fight seriously. He has been partying lots with Dana White (see video below) and he still has the same training partners while Rampage has been working with Team Punishment and Tito Ortiz who can give him some good insight on Chuck. Liddell has always said that he wont change his training because if isn’t broke don’t fix it. Well he lost badly to Rampage and he has fixed it.

He already beat Chuck to a pulp. Take Jackson at a +165 Underdog to win again.
