Yes. Normally after three fights I say please don’t do this to me again.. but these guys could have a legitimate 4th and if quickly after 5th fight and it would still be greatly entertaining.

Agreed. I sure hope he’s not underestimating Franklin.

Silva vs Rampage 4 and 5 would be sweet,
but Silva needs to get some wins first and start moving forward
you cant live in the passed

At this point, I think Wanderlei should focus on fighting Rich Franklin in June. Just last week he was talking up facing Anderson Silva, now he’s talking up facing Rampage, all the while, Franklin is getting ready for him and staying focused on facing him. Wanderlei just needs to take things one fight at a time, and not worry about six months from now, or further down the road, when he’s got a fight in a month in a half.

It is funny how no one ever talks about Shogun vs Rampage and their rilvary.
In pride Rampage won a fight against ninja which he even knew he lost but in all fairness took the mike and tried to give the award to ninja, but he was too busy crying. so shogun hopes in the ring and challenges Rampage.

To Rampage credit he admitted not wanting to fight shogun before this fight but man’d up and took the fight.

Gotta love the guy, he’s a character but he involved with all the best fights and always gets fight of the night awards etc.

completely agree fr, I had to find those highlights on youtube, and I was like F* yea wandy you destroy that mofo. I agree that the extra punches were bs, but that happens in a lot of fights. rampage and wandy seemed cool at the end of the last fight, but wandy isnt the same guy as before when he put on a clinic on rampage. I like the idea of a best of 5, but what happens when the 5th fight is a draw (for arguments sake rampage wins the 4th fight) then we need a best of seven, etc. I love wandy’s competetiveness, but I dont think the fight will happen anytime soon. wandy more than likely commits to 185, and rampage and shogun could renew their rivalary, rampage-forrest, maybe rampage-machida, rampage-evans. you never know.

F~it best outta 5 series, I’m down with that… Wanderlei has destroyed Rampage twice and well we all remember the ko that put down Wanderlei..

The extra punches were bs, but hey atleast I was able to put on my PRIDE dvd and see Quinton hang through the ropes and blood pour out of Rampage, so its all good in my book

I can’t wait to see Wanderlei back @ UFC 99 its going to be great…

i don’t think those punches were cheap shots. he was probably just hyped up and caught up in the moment.

Dude i dig wanderlei’s desire to want to fight and beat someones ass! I love both fighters and i’ve hella enjoyed this rivalry, but i have to agree with EVAN. Rampage ended this rivalry with his sick ass left hook.
Another fight would be a good one to watch, but it wouldn’t make much sense. Rampage’s next fight is going to be for the title and wanderlei’s next fight is going to be @ mw @ “the comeback” because of his ko loss to rampage. Wanderlei should make peace with the fact that he’s destroyed a dude he hates twice and just go decapitate dudes in the mw division.

yeah im suprised no one made a big deal of those “extra” punches they seemed kinda cheap. It seem like everyone just assumed Quinton deserved to get them in because of the ass whoopins he got from wanderlei earlier in his career
