I think Chuck is the best because he doesn't try to be a bunch of things he's not. He controls the fight in a way that forces his opponent to attack in a limited way and Chuck KO's them. I think some of the PRIDE fighters that get nice knock downs and then dive into a grappler's guard could benefit from watching the way Chuck sticks to his gameplan.

Chuck can KO anyone in his weight class, period. I don't see anyone beating him.

Wanderlei Silva.. .bring it on! HE WILL LOSE HORRIBLY!


Seriously, who can beat the Iceman? Don't say Rampage, because that was 3 years ago, and since Chuck has improved enormously, while Rampage's skills have declined. So Chuck would knock him out too.

Send him a half ass wrestler (Rampage) and he will fucking PWN the whitetrashtrailorparkmotherfucker (Chuck) once more, doesnt matter if its standing up or on the ground. Rampage has Chucks number.

Remember Wands striking skills get better when he feels threatend and thinks about what he's doing, if anyone thinks a guy who's fought Cro cop and the heavy hands of Mark hunt is gonna get Ko'ed in 1 rd by Liddell is on crack and dosn't know shit about striking.

Anyone can get KO'd by Chuck. He hits at weird angles people aren't used to getting hit in. It's not that he hits way harder than anyone else, it is that he does hit really hard but at these weird angles. It doesn't matter that Wand fought Crocop or Hunt, Randy had never been Ko'd by anyone, and he was a heavyweight champion. Chuck knocked him out too. It is about the angles Chuck hits at, not necessarily the strength of the punch. Look at the Vernon White KO. It didn't look hard at all, but White was KTFO.

Chuck said that the fight with Wand would only be 1 Rd. That is because they are both KO artists. So either way, someone will go to sleep early. They know this and so should everyone else. There wouldn't be a decision between these two... ever.

Wandy wouldn't lose HORRIBLY to Chuck. In fact I'd put money on it, Wandy would murder Chuck.
