Rewatched Rampage-Silva II

Kaloo · 03-24-2007, 03:20 AM

All the Pride/Zuffa threads got me in the mood to watch, in James Thompson's words, some DVDs, and I decided to watch 'Page vs Silva II. What a great fucking fight. Being a Quinton fan, it sucks to see it end like that, but still... awesome fight. Kind of depressing though because during this fight both were in their prime, and are now past it imo.

Fuck, if Chuck KO's Rampage, I hope he doesn't fall through the cage or some crazy shit like that. Do you think we will ever see a Wand-Rampage III in the octagon? I wonder if Rampage would even agree to it lol, ..wait... if the chedda is right, of course he will.

Can't wait for May 26.

I agree....it was an awesome fight. I wouldn't rule them out of their prime quite yet (at least untill AFTER Rampage-Chuck 2)

It wasn't the 2004 fight of the year for no reason. It's an all time classic. Still it was Wanderlei's best performance. Where has that Silva gone? His striking was SOOOO good in that fight. It was a much more refined version of the typical Wanderlei brawl style, kind of like when he fought Crocop for the first time. He tore Jackson to pieces, but still great fight.

I agree but even if Rampage gets KO'd he ain't done...he did beat Lindland...all he needs is the best training camp and no distractions and what he's barely in his late 20's...not all ppl r the same but look at Couture and Liddell for a sec...when did they hit their prime? and maybe randy hit it twice...

Wand is 2-0 over Rampage. Wandy is the better fighter and we'll never see that again....just like if Rampage beats Chuck again he'll be 2-0 over chuck and like all the others the ufc better treat this the same.

I always see Rampage get hurt the most by knees.

Well if the rules are unified and there are no more stomps then Rampage will definitely have a good shot against Silva if they fought again. I doubt anyone is going to fly through the fence in the cage.
