Rashad is in a camp that has all the benefits, he has a guy in Jardine who had fought forrest, invaluable experience, he has a great game planner and trainer in greg jackson... But i still feel he relies on his opponents to make a mistake, rather then forcing them 2...

Rampage will stand with him and not allow rashad to read his rhythm, also his striking defence is excellent wrestling wise they quite close and strengthwise i'd give to Rampage, so i would think this would be a bad style fight for rashad if he does what he has in his past 2 fights...

A guy like machida(Although i'll probably get flack for this) would be a nightmare for rashad, and probably not much of a spectacle as neither fighter engage all 2 willingly both would bide their time waiting for an opening, i feel rashad would struggle to take machida down and would struggle to land a haymaker and in the end a UD for machida...
