I compared Kimbo with Rashad because they both are hungry and willing to train as hard as they need to in order to get what they want.
rashad is like kimbo in so far as not being in the top 30 but having potential. liddel is on his way out, and shamrock is already way gone. the sport is evolving, there are fighters who are at the head of the evolution and then there are fighters who are just along for the ride, like rashad and kimbo. they are both good strikers but have a lot to learn and a long way to travel before they are referred to as "the best pound for pound"-anythings.
actually Rashad is ranked in the top 10 of the world. HE is going to be fighting Griffin for the championship soon.
and this should be a hell of a fight. but i give the edge to Griffin.
he hasnt earned it yet in my eyes. a win over forest might put him in there, but just barely...
lol and what did Forest do, besides beat an injured Shogun? Forrest didn't deserve a title shot - but he got one any ways. Not saying Forrest isn't a great fighter, but with losses to Jardine & Tito, I'm not sure how a KO over Shogun gives you an automatic title shot. Jardine deserved one by beating Liddell pretty soundly.
Evans Vs Forrest will be 2 people fighting for a belt that neither should even have a shot at (yet)
