i think this is the best card the ufc has put on in years.not sure what fights your talkin about that we probably won't see in 2009 anyway........props 4 repin your home state team by the way.I think if your born and raised somewere and you don't support that team you tend to be a front runner.

at first, because Silva isnt the same anymore...a lot of changes in his life (left ChuteBoxe, already lost lots of fights, dont look or fight as the same wanderlei from the old days)...

that and the fact that Rampage got better in this time...so...you do the math

No kneeing a down opponent, no soccer kicks to the head, a big cage, harder to cut off someone and initiate the clinch, an athletic commision which drug tests.  These are things that will make fight three harder for Wand.  (I like both, but am cheering for Wand)

He also throws looping punches with a shorter reach and leaves his chin exposed for the big shot.  Quinton's punching is more boxing like, chin tucked, hands high.  I see Rampage taking this.
