I Support Wanderlei to win against Chuck. Just curious if fighting in the Ring vs. t

I support Wanderlei to win against Chuck. I'm just curious if fighting in the Ring vs. fighting in the Octagon is 2 different things. Will Chuck have an advantage fighting in the Octagon since he has been mostly in the Ring? I am behind Wanderlei and support him in his fight.

But I've seen him lose twice against Vitor Belfort and Tito Ortiz in the Octagon in the UFC. Most of his success seems to have been in the Ring in Pride. Is there a difference of fighting in the Ring vs. fighting in the Octagon. I hope Wanderlei will be able to do really good in the Octagon.

What's your opinion?

I meant to say will Chuck have the advantage since he has had most of his success in the Octagon? He has had less success in the Ring.

Wanderlei is not allowed to use his stomps in UFC? Why not?

If they're going to have all these restrictions, maybe they should have had it in the Pride Ring. Anyway, I am pulling for Wanderlei and hope he can adapt to the Octagon. Show his ferociousness. He can. Go for it Wanderlei!

The whole stomps/soccer kicks will only matter if CHuck goes down. If he doesn't, then it won't matter.

It's going to be a good fight. I don't know who's going to win? I initially thought Wanderlei. At present, Chuck has the advantage being in an Octagon. May the best skilled MMA Fighter win. I support Wanderlei. He's going to have to do it.
