I agree. Rampage got some retarded ass power. Wandy has a good chin but Rampage just got more power.

Replays and GIFs (no I'm not gonna bother posting any it should be obvious enough already) confirmed that Page's eyes were in fact not closed but he was squinting in the midst the exchange. not that it matters a whole bunch but quite a few douche bags--and I'm not saying you're one of them--tried to use the whole "eyes closed thing" to justify lucky punch cries. he was squinting and it was a perfect boxing counter.

Hell, had Rampage connected that cleanly on Chuck at 71, I might've expected to see Chuck be put out completey for the first time.
Yeah that hook on Chuck didn't connect half as clean as the one on Wand and Chuck looked like he was seeing a ghost on the ground there, he couldn't even get up.

And yes, Wand at anytime of his career would have been put out cold. Heck, everyone aside the likes of Mark Hunt, Henderson and probably Rampage himself would have been out cold.

People that criticize Wand's chin I can GUARANTEE have not been in a ring, even in a sparring session, with a heavy hitter. I've been boxing for a long time and I can spot a heavy hook a mile away, Rampage's is second to none.

Rampage is known to have devastating KO power in both fists, and P4P he probably hits as hard as any other fighter out there, that hook would have KO'd just about anyone.

After seeing the once thought to be unknockoutable Hunt get his clocked cleaned by Manhoef, "ironhead" Fujita get stiffed by a "stiff" jab and Big Nog get rocked silly enough to use his forehead as a brace to get off the canvas I'm pretty sure Page's punch would have KO'd any man in the universe. Seriously even God said "wtf was that tremble?" when it connected.
