really bad blood between the two, when rampage fought wandy the second time when they annouced it after the randleman fight wandy jumped in the ring and gave a big shove to rampage. i would love to see a third fight, i know rampage has improved alot but it would be a interesting fight. rampage has a couple of scores to settle with wandy and shogun

Wandy would win, but Shogun would lose this time around vs. Page.

I like what sylva said. After i read what Page said i was flabbergasted. I was thinking "did he just call himself a chump" seeing as Wandy knocked him the **** OUT!! not once but twice  i really dont play into the whole smack talk shit. These guys are professionals and should shut up and fight. I know they arent alterboys but have some respect

I would have a hard time picking a guy that got beat that bad 3 times by the same style of fighter. What makes you think he would beat Shogun?

How would the 3rd fight magically be different than the first two?
Wandy has got Rampage's number.
No way dude. Not at all. I'm not saying Wandy would or wouldn't win this fight. But you can't just base that off of how wandy has his number. Rampage has improved SO MUCH since he was in Pride. It sort of seemed his best times passed, and he was just falling off the map. Then after the Lindland fight and coming to the UFC he was a totally new fighter. He was hungry again, and then training with Juanito has just made him even better. He's a totally new fighter now, and would definitely give Wandy a run for his money.
btw, I'd pick Rampage to win this one. Probably by decision though.

Chute Boxe = Page's Kryptonite
if the injured Shogun that fought Forrest shows up your right, if 100% Shogun shows up its not lookin good for him, also yeah Wand takes it in the 3rd fight

I'm hopin your right and Forrest pulls off another upset...and not just because I'm a Liddell fun but because I really just do not like Rampage...he is a helluva a fighter no doubt but he just has always rubbed me the wrong way. But to get back on track, I actually do think Silva has Rampages number, yeah Rampage has improved a ton but there is ALWAYS a mental block in your head once you have lost like he did to someone twice....I pick the axe murderer in this fight everytime.

There is a HUGE difference between the UFC and PRIDE my friend. Steroids are banned in the UFC for one thing, PRIDE never tested. Look at Wanderlei's transition from how he looked when he was in PRIDE to how he is in the UFC. He was HUGE and had to cut like 15+ pounds to make 205. Now he's an easy 185 pounder without all that extra "Sherkage" (Sean Sherk baggage, aka muscle induced by ALLEGED massive intake of steroids.) Anyhow, I'd be interested in seeing a third fight, Rampage was right, PRIDE refs are funky, and I think the cage contains the sport much better than the ring ever did, giving a guy like Rampage some advantages in his wrestling, etc.

Rampage is a new fighter, i think he would have a great chance of beating Wandy, just what will be his mindset vs. Wandy. Rampage says Shogun is better than Wandy, but Shogun has not adapted to the cage yet, and hes a way different fighter outside of Japan

Great another steroid-expert. Most pro atheltes use steroids. Get over it. Just cause Wandy didn't have to worry about cycling in PRIDE doesn't mean he won't catch up to the UFC fighters. Not to mention its all speculation anyway. And steroids don't magically give you technical skills, we've seen tons of fights where the losers tested positive. And what do you base Wandy being an "easy 185 pounder"? That's just ludicrous. The guy is a natural HW. It would be stunning if he could make 185.
And wrestlers did really bad in PRIDE right? Saku and Barnett were horrible? Everything has pros and cons, but Wandy utterly destroyed Page twice. It wasn't a close decision that might have gone differently under UFC rules. Wandy is a clear favorite. Some guys just match up really well against others.

Unfortunately I have to spread the love. I'll get you though.
