Bader vs Rampage set for Japan

thats better....Rampage should win. Don't see Bader landing the big shot on Rampage and thats the only way i see him winning.

Better ??? this fight sucks.

Happy Page is part of the Japan card but against Bader really, weak.

Page will hammer Bader

Lol I feel bad for Bader.

Harder fight for Rampage then Bonnar.

This is better than Bonnar vs Rampage, but I was thinking Bader vs Bonnar might make a logical match. Would of rather seen the Return of Murda Face vs Rampage.

Bader is a better fighter than Stephan Bonnar. Rampage would have to lose to somebody like Bader to have to lower himself to a fight with Bonnar.

Bonnar fight would've been a lot harder fight as Bonnar is a big dude that has nice jitsu, Bader will look to land the big punch and probably get his chin tested again, not counting him out though, if he can get through the first round he has a chance

wow, people want to love Bonnar so much that people actually think he's a good fight for Rampage...sure, he's a good fight for Rampage, if the goal is to give Rampage a jobber to rebound from his lopsided loss to Jones. This board has not seen a bigger Bader critic than me, but he would crush Bonnar in a fight and he's much higher in the pecking order and simply more deserving of a fight with Jackson...though i would have booked page vs. griffin since word is griffin would be involved in the japan show.

Bonnar can't have two wars with scrub Freddy Krueger and then dominate a micky and then magically have a fight with Jackson. That lowers the standard. Page just fought for the belt for crying out loud.

Bader might be slightly more talented but it doesn't change the fact that Bonnar vs. Page would be one fun fight.

If he can get through the first round he has a chance? That's the only round Bader is even good in

Im happy that Page is fighting in Japan but he will smoke Bader.

This is a bad year for Arizona Sun Devils in the UFC.

"Back when I was fighting here, I had so much energy. I just wanted to
put on a good show for the fans because all the energy they give. In
America, you're under so much pressure to win at all costs because the
fans talk s**t to you if you lose even if it's a good, exciting fight.
In Japan, it's just a different energy. Who knows? Maybe I'll take more
chances and not care because it's all about the crowd. I react to the
crowd. I don't care about the people watching on TV ... In Japan, I used
to slam a lot and put on more of a show because the energy from the
fans gave me power and I don't feel the same energy in the US. So, I
can't honestly say I improved or evolved in a good way since leaving
Japan. I'm all about putting on an exciting fight in Japan. One thing I
love about Japanese fans and why I love them the most is that they
don't care if you win or lose. All they care is if you have samurai
spirit, that you put on a good fight. That's why Japanese fans are my
favorite. And American fans are jealous that I say that all the time."

1st- bader bigger and stronger than bonnar

2nd- since when has bonnar tried to use his nice juijitsu?

3rd- could bonnar take page down if he wanted?

4th- look at the fights each have been in and you will see page/bader belong but bonnar has been fighting lesser opponants

Without cutting weight, who weighs more Bonnar or Bader? Bonnar cuts quite a bit of weight.

I'd guess Bonnar because he is massive. I was shocked when I saw him in person. He's as big as meathead if not bigger.

I remember when him and Page were on the VS aftershow not long ago talking about the biggest they ever got up to. Bonnar said his biggest was 247lbs, Rampage got up to 260lbs.

Bonnar is massive, I'd literally look like Danny Devito if I stood next to him.

But Rampage gets fat between fights. Bonnar clearly has the larger frame.

Yeah I'd say Bonnar is the bigger fighter between himself, Rampage, and Bader. Rampage gets heavier but he goes Anthony Johnson between fights. Way out of shape and shit, which is why he cuts so much. Bonnar stays in relatively good shape between fights but still cuts a ton of weight.

The 2 aren't mutually exclusive right?
