Sorry Bert, not usually a fan of it. But in this case it makes sense. Tito and Rashad may as well be the same fighter. Rashad is not gonna have anymore success getting Chuck to the the ground than he did with Tito. And Chuck's 10x the striker that Tito is. Not to mention, Tito is fighting on fumes because he's not close to the same fighter he once was. In my opinion Rashad doesn't even deserve to fight Chuck.

Chuck will force him to stand and beat him up, just like he did with Tito.

While I am not particularly happy with the style matchup, I can't really complain about the UFC finding a borderline top 10 guy willing to fight on short notice.

The same thing was said about Jardine and look how that turned out.

Furthermore, I'm not leaning one way or the other; I just think that some people are jumping on the Chuck bandwagon a little too early and not giving Rashad his due credit. I'm still undecided as to who will win this fight.

Yea, no way Evans walks away from this with a win. He is decent, but not great at anything. Also, who has he really faced? Tito!? Chuck will demolish him with hard shots and get his win pretty easily.

Rashad could not take GSP down in training, I doubt he will take Chuck down. Thiago vs Liddell would have been better.

Chuck should win, but Rashad is explosive and fast... kinda like Rampage, but with less experience... and he beat Jardine fairly handily. If Chuck takes Rashad lightly-ONE BIT-he will lose.

... anyone who thinks Chuck is an overwhelming favorite is a completely biased gnube.

That being said... WAR CHUCK!!
