(UFC 71)-Rampage brutal first round TKO of then dominant champion Chuck Liddell for the title

Satisfying because - It was for the 205lb title, Rampage was new to the UFC and mainly UFC fans were all rooting for Chuck who was very popular. A lot of people didn't realize the beating Rampage already gave Chuck in Pride.

(UFC 92)-Rampage vicious one punch KO of rival Wanderlei Silva.

Satisfying because - It was Rampages fist fight back since losing his title to Forrest Griffin, Rampage had lost in devastating fashion twice before to Wanderlei.

Just from these two alone, which win was more satisfying to you as a Rampage fan? (If you aren't a fan, which KO/TKO do you like better just as a mma fan?)
 
while indifferent to all fighters involved, i go with the Wand KO. both were absolutely beautiful but Wand got stretched the fuck out which is a lot cooler
 
Hard to pick. I was at a party for the chuck one, and he was huge amongst the casuals. They were all saying he was gonna knock rampage out while knowing nothing about either of them. When rampage knocked him out, I jumped up and screamed while the whole room was silent lol I made quite a bit of money that night so I'll go with that one.
 
Definitely the Wand KO for me. Always liked Chuck considerably more than Wand so that's an easy answer. But looking at that gif, man that was some sloppy striking from Liddell. Throws a wild looping left to the body then just leaves it at his side afterward.

That's always the best, same scenario for me for Cain/JDS I

I feel the same. I was never a FAN of Chuck but there were certain fights i rooted for him (Jardine, Wand, Tito) and find him exciting.

Wand on the other hand, while being very entertaining and a LHW GOAT i never liked him. So that gets my pick.
 
The Chuck KO. Wand was easy to KO because he'd already lost his chin and he went too wild
 
The Bellator KOs. Lots of disrespect to Rampage at the time about some dealings with the UFC. Definitely got his respect back after those.

Amen on that. I also recall Houston Alexander having a huge knockout victory as a heavy dog that night and rogan dubbing it most vicious ko ever. This was the beginning of his short hype. I cleaned up that night. People who only knew the UFC and Tuf completely wrote off page despite his pride win.

I agree, Rampage went on a skid although as a fan the only loss i really was upset about was the Bader loss.

Nice to see him atm on a 4 fight win streak.
 
My vote is for the Wanderlei knockout because I thought he had Page's number and Page surprised me.

Loved prime Rampge Jackson what an intense awesome fighter with some of the biggest pump up walkouts ever.
 
I didn't think he deserved to lose the griffin fight. Though I was biased. I was a huge fan of him. To me he was one of the most talented boxers ever to fight in the octagon. He was able to avoid punches almost effortlessly while landing precision power shots of his own.

I liked that you could always count on him to back up his word to stand and bang. Sadly he was an example of a guy that had enough star power that he lost site of his hunger and could never really get back. The end of his prime is one of him always struggling to reach his potential. I am glad to see him on the come up he's a true champion.

Forrest is my favorite mma fighter of all time so there is obvious bias there. But i always loved Rampage also. I just felt at times he whined too much. But overall he was a great mma personality. Talented fighter, and exciting KO artist.

I think his fight with Forrest was (regardless if you thought he won) one of the most exciting title fights ever, same with the Hendo fight.
 
W. Silva definitely after pushing Rampage at the weigh-ins because Rampage was trash talking a little trying to make them more money and that dip shit shoved him. During the fight Rampage said push this bitch
 
When Jon Jones made him quit

Count on Sherdog to guarantee a douchebag response.

The Chuck KO was way bigger back then, He was a machine in the UFC and the casual fans didn't know much about Rampage so it was considered a huge upset. I would bet that Rampage would say the Wand KO was bigger because of the revenge factor but overall for his career and MMA in general the Chuck KO was tops.
 
gotta go with the Chuck KO for that satisfaction Rampage finally got the belt he deserved
