i think rampage is going to win. chuck's striking is great, but rampage can stand AND go to the ground. i'm pretty sure chuck has a good ground game (in addition to an awesome takedown defense), but rampage comes off as being a bit more diverse, so i'm giving rampage the advantage.

tito is a POS. randy's humiliation of tito proves it (i dont remember what UFC # it was though). rampage would stomp tito in the ground.
 
I'm confused it's supposed to start @ 7PM PT, but Sherdog already has results for half the fights. Is it not live?

you haven't seen a fight yet? that means it's delayed, hummmm would be interesting to find the results for chuck vs rampage before it's shown on the PPV and bet somebody.

sherdog hasn't had any updates for like 20 minutes but it has me wondering how big the delay is. They're showing the fight time total as about 9 minutes, if you factor in breaks between matches and the fighters entry. It must be about what 30 minutes behind?
