when are we going to see Chuck fight a good striker in the UFC? I think if chuck fought more strikers he wouldnt as succesful. the toughest fights of his that ive seen are mezger, overeem, and vitor even vernon white hung in there for a while. randy beat him with strikes and rampage beat him on the feet and on the ground

i know babalu has some good strikes but he is predominantly a grapplerso are horn randy and tito

why is the ufc so obsessed with striker vs grappler matches when will we see chuck against a top striker? do you think that him fighting mostly grapplers that cant take himdown plays a part in his succes,

Because the UFC doesnt really have any top strikers at LHW. The UFC caters to wrestlers and grapplers.

I said this before that Chuck always had trouble with other strikers. Grapplers are the best match up for him and that's why he has looked so good lately. Since he's been champion he has fought Randy and Horn.....both grapplers and he won in great fashion. The only other two contenders left are Babalu and Tito....again grapplers. He'll probably beat those guys too and look good doing it. Then people are going to believe that he's unbeatable.

However if you match up Chuck with Wandy, Shogun, or any other great LHW striker...people may start to think differantly. Now I'm not saying he'll will definitly lose to those guys, but I bet that the strikers will give him a much tougher fight than the fighters that he's been facing lately.

Well how many top strikers are at LHW in the UFC? In all honesty i can't think of any.. there all grapplers except for chuck when it comes to being a contender for the belt.. So basicly all chuck has to do is keep working on his take down defense and well thats it really.. he doesnt have to worry about facing a top striker because there isnt one in his weight class as of yet.

Chuck By KO every time thanks to xyience

How many great strikers has Wandy fought???...Crocop, Hunt, and Metzger. Yeah, two are better then any striker that Chucks fought, but Silva didn't do especially well against either.

The fact is that the two best strikers in the world at 205 are the champs in the two biggest orgs.

Silva? what does Silva have to do with the UFC and its lack of striking at LHW? And to say Silva didnt do well against Cro Cop and Hunt only tells me you either never seen the fights or are so blinded by your UFC biased loving that you dont see the skill in Silva's striking ability.

and before you get your UFC panties in a bunch pride has had

Rampage
shogun
silva
mezger
overeem
nakumara
now things have changed a bit of course. But nothing is certin on who is staying HW. ie overeem and shogun. and rampage is gone.. dont know what happend to mezger..

but the UFC has never had a top stiker besides liddell..
