	UFC 88 in Atlanta is going to feature Chuck Lidell and Rashad Evans. It didn't look like anyone had posted anything on it yet so i figured i would be the first, and i dont like rashad now just like i didnt like him when this fight was announced for ufc 85. I think chuck will return to form, and will knock rashad out in the first or second round.

	Evans showed he could take punches in the HW division in TUF. He had a draw against an above average Tito because Tito grabbed the cage one too many times. But lets not forget the Ice Man (T)KO'd Ortiz and Couture twice. KO'd Allister a 240 kick boxer once who is a powerfull kick boxer who fought in Pride and now in Dream and dominated the Axe murder. Chuck should KO the upstart Evans, though Evans could still be a top 10 contendor.

	ladoc... Overeem has fought most of his career at 205...you may be thinking of his bro Valentijn who was a bit larger (and dominated Couture in Rings). This seems like a no win fight for Chuck.... I would rather have seen him fight Machida, or rematch with Wandy...

	Corn.. You are right 205 has been a consistant weight for the 6'5 kick boxer. Alistair looked great in Dream. He KO'd an inexperinced 6'9 or so Sumo guy. His chin is supect, but his offense is exciting. Machida was boring vs Tito, everybody deserves a free pass for a boring fight, Machida has his. Chuck will dominate Evans. Couture has proven you can still dominate in your late 30's early 40's.

	You can't count out Evans if I remember right Liddell has shown a weak chin to Wanderlei and Jardine....I have been watching MMA since Royce Gracie won the three of the first four UFC and that is that anything can happen in the MMA world...Just look at Serra vs. GSP no one saw that coming....Even in the Liddell vs. Jardine everyone said Liddell would KO Jardine it never happen...I think that Evans will hold his own with Liddell but it will be a decision win for the Iceman.....
