This actually got me thinking how much i would love to see prime Rampage vs DC
The hell? Shogun and Forrest have literally only lost fights via punches to the face or the odd standing submission. What jibberish are you even talking about?
Forget about the fact that Forrest weighs like 30 pounds more than Anderson.
It's embarrassing you seem to think Anderson, Shogun, and Forrest are even the same kind of fighter to begin with lol

Rampage would of been a nightmare match up for Anderson!
Like Rashad but worst for Rampage
Rampage wasn't in his prime for Rashad. His prime ended with the Hendo fight, he never used his wrestling since that fight(probably due to injuries).
So Rampages prime is when he ... wasnt champ and was getting murdered by Wanderlei Silva who also has crappy takedown defense?
Another pointless comparison to make Anderoid look good by Toner
And both were stinkers. Maybe there’s a reason why Anderson didn’t fight many fellow black guys
Prime Anderson finishes prime Rampage.
Yeah, Toner making dumb threads.
Boo Anderoid! Fraud. Cheater.
GSP is goat.
Go away NotSoSure
Never understood the controversy around that fight. Forrest outpointed AND out damaged him, and had him mounted for an entire round.LOL at people saying rampage was robbed against griffin. Griffin puts hands and legs on that dude. Aside from that 1 uppercut and some GNP, Forrest controlled a 5 rd fight mostly contested on the feet.
This isn't boxing. Every knock down doesn't guarantee a 10-8 and that has literally never been the case with mma scoring.Yes Forrest was a bum. Rampage knocked him down in the first round and one judge gave it to griffin. It should have clearly been a 10-8 for Rampage as the fifth should have been a 10-8 for griffin. Rampage had him on skates a couple of times if I remember correctly. Maybe bum is a tad too harsh but that’s all i’ll Give him. It was a long time ago and I’ll admit I haven’t seen it in ages. The last time I felt a particular fight was a robbery somebody called me out on it, I rewatched the fight and flipped my opinion. I don’t think that’ll happen this time though.
Edit: stop trying to pretend that those three opinions are ALL of the media. And even by the numbers you provided 4 out of the 6 say rampage should have kept his title, so yeah let’s go with your stats. Thanks
Well it’s a good thing I never said that then right? In The post after I said back then it was easiER to get a 10-8 round.This isn't boxing. Every knock down doesn't guarantee a 10-8 and that has literally never been the case with mma scoring.

Even back then 10-8s were normally reserved for one sided domination or violent near finishes.Well it’s a good thing I never said that then right? In The post after I said back then it was easiER to get a 10-8 round.
Rampage doesn't have better striking at all. He got okay boxing and decent power, but he's way too heavy on his feet(not light on his feet) and way too slow with his footwork. Weidman on other hand is much lighter on feet, has good in and out movement and is very good at getting out of danger or strikes with his footwork. Weidman boxing technically is also better, and is much more accurate and calculated with his strikes.
Yes, I would say Rampage's prime was 2002-2007 and Wanderlei's TDD wasn't close to crappy, his TDD was like 75%.
It's not impossible to lose in your prime, especially when you face other all time great fighters in theirs.
Do you really think Rampage got better when he started having more injury problems and became more one dimentional?
