Wanderlei will whip some ass in the UFC. Let him fight Tito again.

I fear for the Chute Boxe fighters. Somehow being stuffed up against a cage by some high school/college wrestler just doesn’t seem right… hopefully they’ll prove that my worries are without merit!

the only reason i would want to see tito wand 2 is to see titos face to get smashed in

I would be willing to bet a very large sum of money on it that Chuck would not only KO Wandy but early in the first round and I know for a fact that Randy Couture would agree with me on that,Wandys style makes him a KO highlight for Chuck,and I am almost as sure the same would happen with Shogun,only difference is theres a chance Shogun could overwelm Chuck at first but it would probably end up being sort of similar to chuck vs Overeem only it would be a Herb Dean moment and Shogun would have a dislocated jaw and it would be ugly.

I saw a recent video with Rampage talking about Wanderlei while playing a video game and lets just say he is not as respectfull as Wandy is.
I like Rampage but I have to say him mouthing off about Wandy is 10 times worse then Tito mouthing off about Chuck,Wandy beat Rampage sensless the first time and then the second time they should of had Herb Dean as the ref for that fight,brutal KO or what!

Is it true Wanderlei used to take steroids or is that just ancient myth?

Because we all know Chuck can take a body shot.

I agree with Richard…let wandy fight tito so tito will get his face smashed and retire. Tito sucks and let wandy expose tito’s game (or lack thereof). I like anyone who will smash tito!

He hasn’t fought since he got KTFO by Hendo, and he’s saying in his upcoming fights whenever that maybe he’s gonna take the UFC by storm…I’m not buying it…Throw his somebody that don’t give up for anything…bloodied/battered a Griffin or Bonnar and they’ll throw big bombs with him…I’m not talking about the who’s who list…show this guy can still fight and compete. hasn’t he been beat bad in his last 2 fights??

If you’re talking about the video that I’m thinking of, that video was VERY old. Rampage was extremely crass in his early days but has since found religion which caused him to change many of his ways.

So a fighter’s only as good as his last fight, huh? So we’re going to ignore the fact that up until his loss to Hendo (which was a rematch of their 1st fight which Wand won)Wand was the PRIDE 205 champ for what, 6 years?
The other loss you speak of was during an Open Weight Tournament where he fought a HW Cro Cop.

Chuck defeat Wandy???!!!! I suspose anything can happen but I find it highly unlikely. I would take that bet anytime. And whats all this hate on Rampage?! Look Chuck got beat TWICE by the better fighter. Rampage got beat TWICE by the better fighter. Also I don’t believe Couture would say that Wandy would be destroyed by Chuck in the first round or at all. Couture understands that Chuck can be beaten (he did beat him once before Page did it). Wandy held the belt in Pride for 6 years straight!!!! Chuck fought a bunch of wrestlers with no hands during his reign as Champ.

the only reason hendo did/could ko wanderlei is beacause he had his skull fractured. Is he still the same fighter?
we shall see.

Right on Machine! I like how Chuck is supposed to destoy Wandy as if Chuck hits harder than Mark Hunt or Fujita.
Also, Wandy obviously has some great ties with Couture, I believe Couture would give/teach Wandy the stategy for beating Chuck. Especially since Chuck beat Couture twice after their initial fight. I see that as pay back.

I like Chuck,Wandy and Rampage,the reason I think Chuck would beat Wandy is because of their styles,hes not gonna take Chuck down and the way he fights standing up is he comes at his opponents very wild and agressive,it works on alot of fighters who just get overwhelmed but Chuck would pick his shots and soon enough one would land and put Wandy to sleep,I actualy predicted Rampage would beat Chuck this last time aswell,look back on the posts before that fight and you will see that I repeatedly said Chuck was gonna loose.
Rampage has an awkward style for Chuck and I think Chuck has a horrible style for Wandy.
The first time Chuck fought Rampage he decided to goe toe to toe with him instead of countering like he should have,the second time Chuck was waiting for rampage to come at him but Page knew better then to do that and all he had to do to get Chuck to throw at him was taunt him and Chuck took the bait and then made a terrible mistake and got caught,it was an awfull performance by Chuck more then it was an excelent performance by Rampage.Its not as if Rampage came out and got right after Chuck and just beat the sh*t into him.
For a fighter like Chuck on a role the way he was to suddenly be stopped like that and people talk like hes finished is dumb.

Are you serious? Henderson is known for his heavy hands. He has a right hand from hell! I’m assuming that comment was sarcasm. Wand is an animal, his fight against Hunt is amazing – he has a good/great chin and a tremendous heart. I would love to see him and chuck go at it. The fight could end with either man’s hand raised. Personally, i like Wandy’s chances and would be pulling for him.

haha his english is bad and its funny to hear him just blabber on and on without hesitation. but i love wanderlei and all of you people saying that chuck would whoop his ass are wrong. I’m not saying chuck will lose, in fact this would be a very even fight, they both like to bang but I think 6 times out of 10, wanderlei would win.

haha right on, good point. Chuck has MORE than enough to knock him out if he can prove to be teh better striker, that is the question. ANd I believe considering there styles, that Chuck is way more likely to catch Wandi than Wandi to Chuck.

We can all make predictions on possible match ups for Wandy, but some of you are forgetting a very important point: Wandy is an absolute warrior as well as a world class fighter. He is definetly not “washed up”. People say he’s done cuz he got knocked out by cro cop, and henderson. Guess what on any given night mirko and hENDO CAN KNOCK OUT ANYONE…. ON THE OTHER HAND SO CAN WANDY.
wANDY IS STILL AN ABSOLUTE BEAST, WITH THE ABILITY TO BEAT ANY TOP FIGHTER ON ANY GIVEN NIGHT.
DO I THINK WANDY’S STYLE IS AN ADVANTAGE TO CHUCK ABSOLUTLY, BUT THAT IN NO WAY MEANS THAT HE CANT BEAT CHUCK…. WANDY IS A VERY WELCOMED ADDITION TO THE UFC.
Hopefully Dana White hatred for tito will make him stick tito in the ring wit Wandy. Wandy would seriously hurt Tito, worse then what chuck did to him. Wandy is brutal he will really put a whooping on tito…. and I would pay any amount of money to c that.
We prolly wont c wandy fight for a UFC title, shogun is fdamily to him and they would never fight each other. I expect Shogun to have the LHW title by december at the latest and holding on to it for a while. That being said wandy will never be champ again, but seeing him whip up on other top fighters is a great consolation prize. PLEASE give us tito vs
wandy. Of course I wanna c him fight chuck, but nothing is better to watch then the brutal beatdown of ortiz at the hands of wandy

I agree John, I would love to see Wandy fight Tito. I am rooting for Wandy’s first fight to be against Tito. Then after that win, he should fight Chuck for the #1 contender. However, if Shogun is the curent champ, Wandy wouldnt fight him.

Tito ducks top contenders, and chases after wet behind the ears TUF fighters. He looked like a pussy against rashad both in the ring and at the post fight press conference( Rashad was bitching tito out infront of the press). Tito seemed like a defeated fighter. Rashad: "Take them glasses off tito n show all these reporters what I did to your eyes. If that was a 5 round fight, rashad would have won.
Tito stop being a pussy and fight a Pride Guy, any one of em:
He scared of Rampage, Liddell, Wandy, Hendo, n I know he will never get in the cage wit shogun. Any of these fighters would give tito a bigger beating then Jenna jamisons pussy took in pornos.
Jamesons pussy takes a beating better then tito

I like andy, he seems like a cool guy who will be exciting to watch fight in the UFC this time around. I would love to see him fight Tito, more than I would love to see Chuck fight Wany, because I have a feeling that fight wouldn’t last long no matter who wins. But Tito v Wandy…oh boy would that be great to watch…Tito seems to have the innate ability to make a fight last for a long time which is exciting to me because of all that anticipation. I was pissed with Liddel vs Jackson…I hate when fights last for under 2 minutes.

God I want to see Rashad loose soooooo bad. Tito talks shit before hand, mind games, after, he gives good respect, which is WAYYY more than Rashad can say. Did you all see the post fight conference? Rashad is a DICK. I don’t care for Tito a whole lot either, he is actually a cool guy, just puts on a “marketable” front. But Rashad? Man I wanna see him loose soooooooooo bad. C’mon Tito, give it to him.
Oh yeah, if he can’t, then throw Rashad in there with Wandi. Then it’s OVER

Come on, Rah’s my boy, show him some love. Actually, he’s been cocky & abrasive since TUF it’s just that no one noticed at the time because he was such an underdog & wasnt making much noise on the show. Remember when he bumped heads with Hughes because of his show-boating? So, I think Rah’s cockiness is his true self. Now, if he can only get rid of the superfluous hand movements while he’s in the the octagon. That stuff only works in street fights and against lower level fighters. It wont fly now that he’s in the upper echelon. Not to mention that it’s a complete waste of energy which he’d be better off expending on foot-work, leg kicks & head-fakes.

Yeah. I was watching the Tito vs Couture fight last night and even after Randy spanked him in the last round, which was a bit disrespectful, Tito still went over and put the belt around Randy’s waist after the fight, and he was almost ready to cry he was so torn up from being dominated like that. Tito talks a lot of smack to get hype going, but after the fights he is respectful.

i have been a big wanderlei silva fan for many years now.i feel that his intensity and skills will bring even more excitement to the ufc. silva absolutly destroyed “rampage” twice in pride. i like “rampage” don’t get me wrong,but silva has an aggressiveness that throws other fighters off.he is vicious.he always fights the best fighters.he was pride champion for a long time.whether he fights liddell,jackson,henderson or asshole ortiz idon’t care.i just can’t wait.this is exciting news.if dana white helped to make this happen then great work dana! i can’t wait to see wanderlei soon in the octagon! the ufc is really rockin!

in the pride open weight tournament that wanderlei was invited to enter he was the lightest fighter there. did anyone see him fight fujita who weighed in at 265lbs. wanderlei absolutly destroyed him with knees,kicks and punches.i’ve watched him fight for yrs.and right from the first time i’ve been a big fan.you’ll never get bored watching a wanderlei silva fight! without a doubt he can beat chuck but i agree with others,i’d love to see him put a major beatdown on ortiz.

some people will critisize anything just to be a critic.i live in a bilingual province in canada. english and french are our languages,and i might be able to speak 10 words in french,mostly dirty words of course. to yak on wanderlei silva not having very good english is bullshit. i can’t imagine trying to learn portugese when i’ve only spoken english all of my life. ok now we’re really speaking my language.what matters is that wanderlei can really fight.he’s lost just like any good fighter out there has!usually he wins,and in exciting,dramatic,vicious fashion. he’s the most exciting fighter i’ve ever seen,which is why i became such a huge fan several years ago. he brings it hard and fast which sometimes puts him in harms way but i’d rather watch that type of fight than a lay and pray or even aboxing style.wanderlei uses kicks,knees,punches,what ever is allowed.i’ve seen him use headbutts in vale tudo,he’ll use whatever he can to inflict damage to his opponent!he should have gotten a chance to win his title back but by than the ufc took over and dismantled pride fc.now i’m sure that they are saving him for chuck,which should be exciting and will be a huge draw for the ufc.but let me just remind you that he beat hendo before, he absolutly destroyed rampage twice,i mean it wasn’t even close,once leaving rampage hanging over the middle rope.he’s had a draw and a lose to cro cop a heavyweight. he destroyed 265lbs fujita and fought men that weighed almost 100lbs more than himself and beaten them! so don’t be showing this fighting machine your disrespect just because he lost his last tittle fight against hendo. wanderlei silva is far from being washed up or being anyones stepping stone.when he’s in the ring prepare for war and devistation. i say he becomes a contender for the lhw title and becomes a fan favorite because he gives everything he’s got and did i mention he’s kind of crazy!don’t go by his demenor outside the cage. when he fights he inflicts the most pain possible,it’s like he just wants to hurt his opponent very badley!HE TURNS INTO A DEADLEY ANIMAL!

If only we could see Wandy vs Shogun.
i agree,that would be a great fight! in pride fc,we’d often see a fighter from chute boxe go against a fighter from brazilian top team.very different styles for sure,but we never saw them fight their own team. who knows for sure but i doubt we’ll ever see it.
