Is Tito the feel good story of the summer? Just came off a big career saving win against Ryan "the Master" Bader and stepped up to replace Davis in a fight with number 1 contrnder Rashaad Evans. If he wins this depending on injuries and possibly snother win he could be in line for a title fight.
Crazy a couple weeks ago most people thought he was figjting his last fight.
Side note Lyoto declined to fight Evans unless he got more money.

Rashad will beat Tito convincingly. Tito is past his prime and will never be LHW champion again.

Tito may have a last run, but it will be Cinderella-esque. If he falls on his face, it won't be a surprise, but if he wins, it will be a big deal.
My money is that he falls flat, though with the way Rashad fights, it may go the distance and be a tough call for the judges.

Jon 'Bones' Jones is the best LHW is the world. I'm pretty positive he can beat anyone in the UFC LHW division. Rampage will be an easy test for him in October.

I think Tito can beat Rashaad but JBJ would kill him

I wouldn't discount Tito against Rashad. Rashad hasn't had a fight in over a year and a half and Tito is fresh off the Bader win. You can't even buy that kind of momentum let alone train for it.
I think Tito has a pretty good chance of beating Rashad, especially if he comes out the more aggressive fighter.

You guys see Tito beat Bader and forget about his last dozen fights.

People give Rashad entirely too much shit that he doesn't deserve. Rashad Evans is a great fighter and will be LHW champion again one day.

If it were anybody else I would say Tito would have a tough time getting the win, it's Rashad though. Yes he has only lost once but stylistically Tito and Evans aren't much different. Both have a decent wrestling base, both prove to be aggressive enough. I just don't think that 18 months off is going to do Rashad very well.

Rashad Evans will win by decision or KO.

I don't see Jones losing that title anytime soon. Think a title reign that is along the same lines as GSP, and that's in a tougher weight category.

Im not discounting Rashaad's ability as a fighter or a top LHW fighter, I just don't like him. I never have something about him just bugs me. Like King Mo does in long doses.
