What does Jardine have to offer Wand?

Devil Johnny · 12:04 AM

Ok, nuthugging aside, I'll ask you this.

What has Jardine shown in recent fights that he has what it takes to beat Wanderlei? Leg kicking a VERY off-game, non aggressive, Chuck to a split decision? (Wand is a LITTLE BIT harder to beat via leg kicks than Chuck) Has Jardine ever faced a striker like Wand? (don't even try to say Chuck)

We all remember what happened when Jardine faced a fighter who pushed the pace a little.

*flash back*

*flash back ends*

that was weird... Anyway, after watching the Chuck fight over again, I realized that Liddell was never in any REAL danger, whenever Liddell let his hands go, a look of fear struck Jardines face. ALSO, Jardine even said that he is SCARED to fight a guy who has no choice but to win (in countdown 84). I respect Jardine for being so humble and honest, but I don't see him beating wand, even by a split decision.

One last time before fight time.

WAR WAND!!!

EDIT: The prophecies came true!!

The only thing I'm worried about is his size and reach. Other than that I think Wand has the perfect style to beat a guy like Jardine.

A lot of people bring up the Houston fight when talking about Jardine and his title shot. In my opinion, a lot of people could have gone down to Houston that night. He was unknown, and no one saw that coming. He was a man on a mission that night.

We'll see.
My BJJ class at Extreme couture is right after the PROs training. Sometimes I go half an hour early to watch them train. I think you're in for a surprise, buddy.

Are you being sarcastic?

IF silva is smart he ll take JARDINE down.

Without the refs and roids from PRIDE Wandy has to use skill and heart and Jardine has some of both of those.

Let's not forget which of these 2 guys beat Liddell, and which one did NOT.
