» Fighter: Rashad Evans

The post UFC 109 talks have begun and it did not take long for many to say Fighters.com’s tenth-ranked heavyweight “Natural” Randy Couture (18-10) just elevated himself to the top five of the light-heavyweight division with his win over “The Hammer” Mark Coleman (16-10) Saturday night. The thought of him being in the top five is ridiculous when you look at the division and what he is done in the division since coming back down from heavyweight.

Fighters.com fourth-ranked light heavyweight “Sugar” Rashad Evans (14-1-1) received his black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu from Rolles Gracie (2-0) Saturday before UFC 108. The awarding of black belts today in mixed martial arts (MMA) is becoming homogenized as many fighters seem to be able to get them as easy as a Big Mac. It is a disgrace to the fighting style of Jiu Jitsu, the black belt lineage and to Helio Gracie himself.

The most cursed card in UFC history is just around the corner. UFC 108, which takes place Saturday, has seen more fighters pull out of fights due to illness and injury than any other card to date. One fighter even dropped off the card to film a movie. That fighter is Fighters.com sixth-ranked light heavyweight “Rampage” Quinton Jackson (28-7) who was scheduled to face fourth-ranked “Sugar” Rashad Evans (13-1-1) after their heated exchanges on SpikeTV’s The Ultimate Fighter 10. The UFC was smart enough to instead give Rashad tenth-ranked Thiago Silva (15-1) to fight in the main event. Sadly for Rashad this is a fight he will not win and his shot at fighting Rampage will be ruined.

Fighters.com eighth-ranked light heavyweight “Iceman” Chuck Liddell (21-7) has started training jiu jitsu with Eddie Bravo of 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu. After winning the title in 2005 and defending it four times, Liddell has dropped four of his past five bouts, including back-to-back losses to fourth-ranked “Sugar” Rashad Evans (13-1-1) in 2008 and third-ranked “Shogun” Mauricio Rua (18-4) in 2009. I believe that this will help to elevate Chuck’s game and will help to right the losing skid he is been on as of late.
