Rashad Evans' devastating KO of Chuck Liddell earned him far more than the $60,000 KO Of The Night bonus-it's also earned him a title shot. Dana White confirmed that Evans has earned a shot at the UFC Light Heavyweight Title, but didn't mention exactly when. Rumors are it could be at UFC 92 in December.

EASY win for Rashad. EASY. So frickin' easy! Easy! Easy! Oh man. Easy! I'll be right about Rashad again in saying he'll be the champ by the end of 08. Aw. It'll feel so good to be right about Rashad again.

As much as it breaks my heart, I'm glad to see you get your day in the sun. Alot of people including me gave Rashad no chance. It will be interesting to see how he does from here on out.
Enjoy it buddy.

Rashad is rapidly becoming a box office draw for the reverse reasons, people are just tuning in to watch him finally lose. Once again he disappoints everyone.
Wonder where Chuck goes from here? Liddell Vs. Franklin perhaps?
So predictions for Forrest Vs. Rashad? With Forrest being succeptable to KOs I had to favour Rashad now.

What the hell about Machida? Last i heard Thiago withdrew from the fight. Machida should fight Rashad to determine a clear number 1 contender.

The Jackson Camp owns Chuck. With that being said, props to Rashad. Man he was looking very quick. Its hard to effectively hit a target that can change angles and get in and out like Rashad did last night. I was anxiously awaiting a take down attempt, but that plan was flawless. Chuck got frustrated, led to him being anxious and then ended up with him drooling on the mat......well played by the Jackson camp and Rashad.

I want to remind everyone I said rashaad was NOT overrated! and I am glad he won. I kinda feel for chuck right now though cause he has lost 3 of 4 right? It was definitely a devastating knockout and I couldnt be more happy! I see rashad and brock being champs real soon!

Where's all the Rashad haters now! He just silenced the critics (and Chuck) with that overhand right. He just put Michigan on the map in highlight reel fashion. Is that a title shot I hear or the sound of Dana's heart breaking.
WAR RASHAD!
