Thiago vs Rashad.

Discuss the bout here. No pussy ass whining this time if someone disagrees.

Rashad will smash him with greater footwork, cutting angles and throwing fast counters as dude wades in looking to throw haymakers. Brazilian BJJ guys have a difficult time getting down American wrestlers usually, and this fight will be no different.

You really don't like Thiago do you ?

I might change my avatar to his throat slit just for shits and giggles

I like Thiago, but I have to agree with Wolfy. Rashad's just a better fighter than Thiago.

It's hard to justify saying that Thiago will win. They each have one loss to the same guy, but Rashad has fought the better competition in his time, he's easily the more proven fighter. So yeah, if I had to cast an opinion I'd have to say Rashad wins.

I'd pick Rashad to win, probably by TKO in the 2nd or 3rd, but even with a speed disadvantage it's not like Thiago is a horrible striker, I wouldn't put it past him to catch Rashad

Shads best victories have come in fights where he has caught his opponent despite being out fought to that point. So could he catch Thiago? Sure, is it a foregone conclusion that any fighter will catch another fighter? No. I don't rule out thiago in this fight.

I think Thiago takes it I just think he has more power and will catch Rashad. Rashad is faster but I think Thiago can nullify that by cutting the ring off.

Rashad wins not only is he motivated for himself, but he needs to get revenge for his BFF Keith Jardine

This is valid. However I think Rashad is a set up fighter. He likes to establish a rhythm and capitalize on it as the fight progresses. You can't keep using the same tactics on him an entire fight. he figures you out. Did it to Forrest and Liddell. Got stronger as the Tito fight progressed as well.

This is accurate. Like capt said Rashad is a slow starter and sometimes slow starters never get started at all.

That would be a great fight, both got Knocked the fuck out by Machida, Silva destroyed Jardine, since Rampage is out get this fight signed. As far as who wins, we saw what Silva has left, now we need to see if Rashad can pick himself up and come back to the form that got him his title, do either of them seriously want another fight with Machida, does anyone.

What is Rashad Jardine's older black brother?

Probably the other way around as Jardine fights everyone first, and tells Rashad how to beat em, what info will he have for Silva, he wasn't concious long enough to learn anything.

im picking rashad. I think his speed should give him the advantage on the feet.
