UFC on FOX 2: Will fight fans finally cheer for Rashad Evans on Jan. 28 in Chicago?

LAS VEGAS - MAY 28:  UFC fighter Rashad Evans (R) reacts to the crowd while speaking to UFC announcer Joe Rogan (L) about his fight against UFC fighter Quinton "Rampage" Jackson at UFC 114: Rampage versus Rashad at the Mandalay Bay Hotel on May 28, 2010 in Las Vegas, Nevada.  (Photo by Jon Kopaloff/Getty Images)

Anyone who has ever gone to see Rashad Evans compete under the ZUFFA banner knows it's not unusual to hear the boo-birds singing in unison at the mere mention of his name.

Perhaps it has to do with the fact that he's consistently beaten fan favorites, or that he's not afraid to speak his mind. Or maybe it just feels like the cool thing for sheeple to do.

Whatever the case may be, that streak could be broken at UFC on FOX 2, when Evans steps into the Octagon against rising star Phil Davis as part of the promotion's return to the FOX airwaves at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.

After the jump, hear "Suga" explain why in his blog for the Chicago Sun Times.

Star-divide

"There are 11 big bouts on the card – and some of the biggest names in mixed martial arts like Chael Sonnen and Michael Bisping are appearing in big fights – and the UFC told me there are only a couple of hundred tickets left. By fight night there will be over 14,000 fans packed into the arena and, as a Chicago guy, I know I’m going to have a lot of support come fight night. More than nine million Americans watched the first UFC on FOX fight last November, with tens of millions more watching around the world. I’m so excited to be given the chance to perform on such a gigantic stage. It’s a little crazy, but at the same time because it is happening in Chicago, it’s weirdly familiar too. I’ve lived in Chicago for over four years, and I’m going to be proud to represent the city when I step inside the Octagon."

Evans is expected to earn a light heavyweight title shot against Jon Jones should he be able to overcome the rise of "Mr. Wonderful" later this month.

"Bones," himself the subject of more than a few boos, could also help Evans get back into good graces with fight fans. And if he wins? Well, that remains to be seen.

Stay tuned.

I just dont think phil davis has a chance against jones

But on the other hand i dont think rashad does either, the only person i see beating him his JDS cutting down.

by abe209 on Jan 16, 2012 3:35 PM EST reply actions  

JDS isn't beating Jones at LHW...

At HW right now JDS will beat him…but if Jones ever decided to leave LHW (once he’s sharpened his techniques) and do some weight training he could add 20lbs easily and be around 250lbs…

A 250lb Jon Jones is the HW champion of the world)

Jones is already 225-230 and is still young and growing. I would not be shocked to see him 245-250 2-3 years from now.

by Lynchman on Jan 16, 2012 8:13 PM EST up reply actions  

He could be if he wanted to. Jones doesn’t necessarily ever have to get much bigger than he is now, that’s just his body type.

And personally, I would prefer Jones to rule LHW for as long as possible, which could be his whole career if he could.

When you are king of the mountain, you don’t let go of that shit. LHW will catch up to even Bones one day as well.

Gustafusson and Davis are the next guys, and after that, people who come into LHW, and stare down the barrel that is Jon Jones, will know they have to up their games much like with GSP or Anderson Silva.

The dominant champ is not a bad thing, the weight jumping is.

by p123 on Jan 16, 2012 9:42 PM EST up reply actions  

Jones has said in interviews that he won't be able to make the cut to 205 much longer

he says he’s still growing and estimates he has maybe 2 years at most left at LHW before he’ll be forced to fight at HW.

Jones ALREADY weighs 240. I've heard him say so in interviews.

he cuts an enormous amount of weight to fight at 205. All he’d have to do is not cut weight (like JDS and Cain don’t) and he’d be the same size as Dos Santos.

I see Bisping beating Maia in a stand up decision…Maia may be a beast on the ground but he doesn’t have an explosive takedown like a wrestler does…and Bisping has good td defense and good sub defense as well…

It’s possible that Broly is on SSJ2 Kid Gohan’s level in Movie 10.

Hell no. Phil Davis is a fan favourite already. Phil is as likable as you can get really. And the only time Rashad will ever be cheered, is when he faces Jon Jones, and Jon Jones gets booed against anyone. That ain’t saying much.

IDK, he seems pretty middle of the road to me. Some cheer him, some boo, some don’t even care.

Yea that would’ve been good, but I’m glad it went like it did cause it gave Quarry the opportunity to show that he was there to fight. Even though that was a really shitty fight overrall I think Nate’s stock went up big time because of how he handled it + it gave me one hell of a good laugh.

I can’t name one off the top of my head but I’m sure in one fight where someone was knocked down several times and almost got finished the judges scored it 10-7. And anyone who runs away for the whole fight doesn’t deserve any points. Houston-Kimbo both deserved 0s for their first round as well.

I used to dislike the guy too until I started watching more of his interviews and at this point I can honestly say, I don’t get the hate.

And Dana bitched about Rashad all the way through that series about his attitude and style of fighting. Fickle fans are easily convinced that someone is a dick when Dana White and Matt Hughes tell them that.

63s my first

I wanted to see 61 just to watch Shamrock (I was a WWE fan who didn’t realise how bad Ken was at that point) but was away on holiday when the show happened. I caught the Liddell-Babalu fight the next month and made sure that I saw the next event all the way through. Pulver getting hyped up as a GOAT only to get KO’d immediately by Lauzon sold me on the sport. Watching Andy win the MW title on the next event and seeing the replays of his beatdown of Leben (who I recognised as the guy who beat all of the TUF 4 alumni) made me an instant fanboy.

and I would be surprised if he was cheered

Even if he doesn't get cheered in this fight

I guarantee he’ll get the cheers when he fights Jones.

No matter how much hate Bones Jones gets online it’s nothing compared to what Rashad gets from the majority of MMA fans.

Yea I've never heard Machida get cheers like that before

And they were in Canada, it’s not like it was Machida’s backyard and that was the reason the fans were booing the shit out of JBJ.

Guess that could be it too

But Machida?? That’s another guy that gets a lot of hate due to his style. Jones is the exact opposite, exciting, flashy style, finishes guys left and right. I just didn’t expect Machida to get that kind of applause and Jones that much hate from the audience.

Everyone wanted machida to take the crown and believed he was the only one that could.

He did win a round. So far he’s the most succesful against jones IMO.

I thought he was gonna do it

After the first rd, I was like “Jones is playing his game, Machida’s got this.” Then the cut happened, at that point it was a wrap. Other fighters can learn from that rd though, Jon wasn’t too sure what to do with an opponent who wasn’t coming straight at him like Page or Rua or getting walked down and back peddaling the whole fight.

Machida's fought in Canada before

Including the highlight reel front kick KO of Couture. Of course he was going to be cheered after doing that in his last fight.

I’m rooting for rashad I always have. He did piss me off in the rampage fight though. But rashad is a great fighter but I like what machida did to him it was awesome. I’ll be rooting rashad in this fight and when. He fights Jones

I would love to see it.

I would put something along the lines of the 3 headless horsemen at the top droppin twitter names and a massive blood trip octagon in the centre. Then a nice msg for BE on the bottom. that says something along the lines of:
FUCK BE!
It would be impressive.

The question is...

will Rashad and Bones bury the hatchet after they fight?

Or does it depend on who wins?

Id Boo Evans

I was an Evans fan all the way up to te Ultimate Fighter series against Rampage. Then it all changed and I grew to dislike him. The time has passed but I still would not cheer Evans and there is no way he can beat Jones. Heck give him a re-match with Machida and he loses that as well. Just my opinions though.

My buddies and I have great seats, and will happily be booing Rashad. BTW, living in Chicago for 4 years does not make you a local product ya dildo

as someone who has never stepped foot in the city of Chitown

I have to say that I think Rashad absolutely represents the chicago faithful. Plus, if they say “fighting out of Chicago” he’ll get much love for that.
