In my opinion Rashad Evans (10-0) has had an easy time with most of his mixed martial arts fights. Yes, he is undefeated but who has he fought? His MMA fighting career has been made up mostly of The Ultimate Fighter Reality show contestants (TUF) like Jason Lambert, Jason Lambert, Stephan Bonnar, Sam Hoger and Brad Imes. Most of his other fights have been against fringe or journeyman fighters like Dennis Reed, Danny Anderson, Bryan Pardoe, and Hector Ramirez.

Don’t get me wrong Rashad Evans might be a great fighter one day but he is far from being in the class of Tito "Huntington Beach Bad Boy" Ortiz (15-5). I have never been a real fan of Tito as I have thought that he has always been a one- dimensional fighter that can only ground and pound. He has had problems with heavy strikers but he has a bigger frame than Evans does and I know that he does not have the KO power with likes of Chuck Liddell. Tito has fought some really great top mixed martial arts fighters like Chuck Liddell, Ken Shamrock, Vitor Belfort, Randy Couture, Vladimir Matyushenko, Elvis Sinosic, Evan Tanner, Yuki Kondo, Wanderlei Silva, Frank Shamrock, Guy Mezger, or Jerry Bohlander and each one of those people could whip Rashad’s ass right now.

Yes, Rashad Evans looked great against his last opponent with an incredible high kick to the head but can anyone tell me who Sean Salmon is? Tito has seen it all in the ring and Rasheed has nothing he can put out of the hat that will surprise him.

Tito has far superior strength, cardio and ground and pound skills who will pick Rashad up and slam him to the ground, take him to the side of the UFC octagon and then proceed to elbow and pound Rashad into tapping.

Bottom Line: Rashad is not on the same level as Tito or any other top light heavy weight in the world. He is more experienced, has a bigger frame, been in the big fights, has more strength and better wrestling skills and is a cardio machine. Rashad showed that he lacks conditioning and is just developing his MMA skills at this moment.

I don't know what will be more disturbing Tito kicking
