"There's gonna be some black on black crime" - Rampage Jackson

Would be a sick fight. I'd pick Rumble, but Rampage has a legit shot. He was a great fighter with KO power and a crazy chin.
 
How will it play out?

You ask that like it has a chance of happening.
 
I would have picked Jackson, by unanimous decision where the fight mainly takes place on the mat.
 
Jackson could outlast the early barrage to win.
 
Rampage would stop Rumble in second round.
Prime Page is top 5 LHW GOAT, had great hands/head movement and very strong chin.
 
Tough fight to call. Rampage has the chin to withstand Rumble's bombs and the head movement/boxing to avoid them altogether. I got Prime 'Page.
 
Rumble would probably adopt a different strategy for this fight, using leg kicks early on to restrict Rampage's movement and could then win by UD.

If Rumble tried to KO Rampage, that would play to Rampage's strengths (great chin, huge power, nice counters).

Prime Rampage dealt with Prime Chuck pretty handily and I don't think Rumble would offer any new challenges that Rampage hadn't already dealt with successfully.

My money would be on Rampage but it would be an absolutely awesome fight while it lasted!
 
If you guys think Rumble hits harder than prime Kevin Randleman then IDK what to tell you. And Rampage took THOSE shots just fine. So Rumble would get humble real quick.

Everybody so far has called Rampage, with the exception of one I think who called Rumble via decision with Rampage still having a good shot.

100% he hits harder. Just because kevin (rip) was huge and muscular doesnt mean he threw hard. Rumble probably throws as hard as most hw punchers that are known for their power.
 
Page would have rumble resorting to his wrasslin real quick!

I was just saying that in general. Wasn't addressing it at anybody specific.

I disagree. There's no way to know for sure, so maybe you're right. And Rumble DOES hit hard as fuck, no doubt about it. But personally from what I've seen, I'd say Kevin hit harder. Kevin was a solid ton of fast-twitch muscle stacked onto power muscle. Dude was probably just as fast as Rumble. Not to mention Kevin (no disrespect at all) was almost for sure juiced to the gills DURING his fights. Watch his ko of Cro Cop and tell me you can see Rumble doing that.

Just my opinion.
 
Prime Rampage would probably win. Theyre pretty similar but Rampage is just a better version. Equal chin, about equal power, Rampage has better boxing, Rumble has better wrestling but both have very good takedown defense. Neither really have any jiu jitsu. Rumble does have that left high kick. The biggest difference though is Rampage is much more mentally strong. His will would be the biggest difference.
