The real question is which camp is he with.  Xtreme Couture, or Chute Boxe.

I'm pretty sure he's not with Chute Boxe anymore, I don't know about the Xtreme Couture thing though, it's possible because he's been kinda hinting at it in interviews.

I have a feeling that Wand will work with Randy's camp until he gets another Chute Box camp off the ground and running in the states.  I know they have a camp in LA but Wandy says he's moving to either Florida or Vegas.  Don't forget the Ruas are moving to the states as well.

Team Chute Box will never die.

In an interview I saw Wandy said he's planning to open a school in Florida.

Dude has been with Wand since he started fighting period.

Wand has indicated his new master trainer is a guy by the name of Rafael Alejarra (I don't know if this guy has anything to do with chute boxe), and he has said he will train for fights in Las Vegas (im assuming with Randy) and he will live and operate an academy in Florida.  Noticeably absent in any interview ive seen, is any mention of Chute boxe.  Also, a while back an mma hall of fame opened up in Brazil, The first names Chute boxe submitted to that museum were Murilo and Mauricio Rua, no Wandy.

We've been spoiled lately. Wand signing isn't that exciting it would've been a couple of years ago.

Damn so that means theres no Chuteboxe...Wand put them on the map...him and Pele.

So from now on...you wont be hearing Wand's old corner yelling..."HEEEEYYYYYYYYY".

I use to love that shit. ;D

I think you are discounting Hendo too much.  Hendo had Wandy rocked in the first fight.  The rules in the US Pride also favored Hendo, as did the fact that Wandy was ill prior to the fight.  Wandy has a killer instinct, and won't back down.  That being said, I think Chuck matches up well against Wandy unless Wandy can get the clinch.

I think Wanderlei is done for... he doesn't have that crazy look in his eyes anymore... those two knockouts hurt him bad.

Everyone said that about Page before his fight with Chuck.

Yeah but come on, that was a lucky punch that hit Chuck... that wasn't even a full blown fight.
