   Randy is the only guy who gave problems to Brock Lesnar. I don’t think Randy’s age will be a factor. So my predicition Randy by Decision.

   I agree with you. Vera is a good wrestler but nothing compared to Randy. Vera is probably the better striker but so were Belfort, Liddell, Gonzaga, and Sylvia but Couture has the perfect style that will really frustrate a striker. You kick him he’ll shoot in and take you down and I would love to see Vera try to put him in the muay thai clinch he’ll trip him. Vera just has Couture in the striking dept and if I was Vera I would be worried. Couture wins by 2 round TKO

   It’s not his record, it’s how long he’s been fighting, and the opponents he has faced. He was even doing good against a Gorilla like Lesnar, until he got clocked in the back of the head.

   I agree with everything you just said man! Randy is a fucking hero to still be going this hard at his age! I think he’s going to win, he will out smart Vera.

   Two equally skilled fighters. One weighing 280 (that cuts to 265) and the other weighing 230. Who wins?

   More often than not the bigger guy is going to win.
6. icemanlonewolf says:

   Yeah, but the big tards are getting skill and they are not just big because they eat a lot anymore. Now there are guys that weigh 280-290 that cut to make 265 but on fight night are back at 280 that’s not all fat.

   Unfortunately the HW division feeds off of the little guys. Without them it would be nothing. Hopefully the number of TRUE HW continue to grow making room for a new weight class.

   Which is BS. Randy is hardly deserving of a title shot at LHW. If he wins I’d like to see him face off against Rashad.

   Yeah I guess when you consider his age and what he’s been able to do in 2 weight classes then yeah, but Couture’s record is not really that good at all. 16-10. Granted he’s fought some tough guys, but he’s lost quite a bit.

   machida is ducking a rematch with shogun

   shogun’s next fight will be a rematch. anything else is just a risk of him losing that chance

    I see Couture walking away with this one. He is overdue for a win, and I don’t see Vera stepping up to stop him.

    Couture is nothing short of amazing when you consider his age and his ability to compete at the level he is.

    The guy has lost a couple, but he isn’t losing in dominating fashion. Go Randy, show the doubters that you still have a few years to wow people.

    not yet dude, the winner probably gonna fight the winner of Ortiz and Griffin fight.

    I’m hoping Randy takes this one, the dude’s a fucking hero! There is nobody else in this sport right now that can bost Randy’s accomplishments. I think Randy is a more inteligent fighter than Vera. It was not that long ago that Randy smoked G Gonzaga! If he fights vera the same way, the win is his!

    I think the winner of brandon vs randy should fight shogun for interim lhw title, becouse the paper champ machida is injured

    Does shaunyb0i not realize how many wars Randy’s been in? Dumbass. Let’s see how your nose looks after 25+ fights.

    i really think Brandon is gonna KO randy in the 2nd round with a kick punch combo. Unless Captain get him on the ground and pounds him.

    nah man you wanna see lighter guys (with more skill, see Couture) beating the shit out of some of the big tards.

    If Randy wins this fight he’ll get a title shot but if he loses this fight he’ll get a title shot.
