would anyone else be interested in Rampage at HW??

[xentreos]

How do you think he'd fair in fights against the likes of Roy Nelson Frank Mir steph struve or other potential HW fights ?not necessarily a Cain Velasquez or top 3 big but maybe more favorable matchups like Brendan Schaub.Too small ? Chin couldn't hold up ? Or do you think he could find similar success like Anthony Johnson did?

I think his style could allow him to find alot of success at heavyweight. He's got a good gas tank especially by HW standards, he's got cautious style of boxing that I think would allow him to avoid alot of the early power punches and he's strong as ox. Rampage has a champions skill set that alot of heavyweights in the ufc just don't possess that I think would really make the difference in like I said novelty match ups, I'd really have to see rampage impose his game at HW in order to give him a chance against the elite heavyweights. So do I think he could be a serious heavyweight contender? Not necessarily but I really think a move to heavyweight is very realistic at this point in his career.

Yes, Rampage vs. Meathead.... winner takes all.

 

[maccer349]

at this point, not really interested in Rampage at any weight

I'd be interested at flyweight

 

[joeyjoejoe]

Awesome I could see Rampage coming in looking like Roy Nelson.

 

[Sole]

He'd KO everyone except the top 5. I don't think Rampage is very good anymore, I just know that HWs are very bad.

 

[Pudgy**]

He would get wrecked

This all day.

 

[Koimpact]

I think he'd do very well at HW. As big a fan as I am though I don't think he would get past Cain.

Dang really ? His outside the cage antics are definitely a hindrance but I'm always interested in a legend stepping In the cage whether I'm a fan or not.

 

[egg so skeleton]

He'd beat some top ten guys, but he'd lose very badly to the top 5. So badly that I don't think the move up is really worth it.

Mitrione is fast and knows how to fight from a distance. He would fuck Rampage up. Jumping up a weightclass is no picknick. Look at Maldonado, nearly unfinishable at LHW but got taken out with 2 half assed shots by Miocic. Rampage knows this. He will try to rebuild a rivalry with Rashad and fight him in the summer, or Lil Nog or Shogun, Manuwa. Enough fun fights for him at LHW, where he won't crack the top 5.

 

[BROWNPRIDE]

He would do better at hw.

 

[MartyMcFry]

Would love to see him get KOd a few times.

 

[Git rekt]

Nothing will make me believe in rampage again, it was fun while it lasted but his time is long past no matter what weight he's at.

 

[ligthandshadow]

He would perform roughly the same, as he has his whole career:

Win some.
Lose some.

 

[nogdog]

It'd be fun, Rampage vs:

Nelson
Mitrione
Arlovski
Hunt

But I think Rampage gets tooled in each of these fights.

 

[Cubo de Sangre]

I'd love to see it if only for new matchups and a greater chance of his fights not going the distance.

 

[TommyGunz]

Yes, Rampage vs. Meathead.... winner takes all.

You nailed it, I'd love to see this fight. I believe they have gotten into it and talked about fighting in the past too.

 

[Raul24]

very interested
