You know, I actually just found out about this fight last night. I haven't heard Shogun's name mentioned in quite some time. I think the last person I saw him fight was Forrest Griffin. What's he been up to since then?

the (very) short answer is that he's been recovering from knee injuries, and preparing for this next fight with Liddell, making sure he doesn't commit the same sin of being unprepared and out of shape as he was when he fought Coleman

given the record that each has compiled compiled, tonight will be do or die for each of them

whichever one loses tonight, will probably be closing their careers with this match

my gut tells me the winner will be Rua, though most oddsmakers hold otherwise

I really think Chuck has long been on the downside of his career. If he loses, he'll probably show up at Strikeforce. It is also rumored that Tito will be signing with them, another has-been. It's sad he's more known for his porn-star girlfriend than for his work in the ring.

Well, I think most of the competition's figured out Chuck's approach. He's not a very versatile fighter.

As for Tito, he's had a good career. He's really only struggled with those who've either been or gone on to become champions in the sport. Among those familiar with MMA, he is popular, but anytime you date someone who millions of peeps have masturbated to and who's made millions upon millions of dollars, of course their popularity is going to overshadow yours. But who's complaining if you're reaping the benefits?
