i dont think hes slowing down, if so- i didnt see it in his last fight ( I believe your only as good as your last fight- and he distroyed jardine)...i think he took the chuck fight early (remember he just moved to the states- and didnt have a full training camp)...before that he fought henderson sick and A+ Cro-Cop.....no excuses thou!
you are right about him being undersized for 205- but as for rampage, i think he already beat him mentally- no one hurt rampage like Wand did! Its going to be a great fight, cant wait to watch!
He did annihilate Jardine, but Jardine fought incredibly ****** that night. I think that if Jardine fought the way he did against Chuck, by staying outside and throwing a lot of kicks, finding his range and timing his shots right that he would've beaten Wand the same way he beat Chuck. There's no way that Greg Jackson told him to rush in and get in Wand's face.... I can't think of a worse guy to do that with.
I think that will be Rampage's biggest hurdle against Wand, his mental hangups. It happened to Cintron against Marg in their 2nd fight. If Rampage can connect early I think his confidence will swell tremendously and he'll ride that to victory.
