I can see Rashad running for the early fight, Just like he did with Chuch. Only when Rampage fought Chuck, he was smart enough not to chase, so he should be smart enough to make Rashad fight and take the center of the ring. That's one great thing about Rampage is he fights smart and sticks to what he went in to do. Whereas you see guys like Tito go and chase Machida and you see Chuck go and chase Rashad, Rampage shouldn't buy into that so he should be able to win by not giving Rashad the opportunity he wants.

Rashad's power is still questionable, he really got to load up on a hands down Chuck, but can he get Rampage with 1 punch? we know Rampage may be able to rock him with 1.
