is 2 months enough conditioning? i know that his camp is harder than any conditioning i went through, but how do you get his cardio from 1 rnd gasser, to 3 rnds?

cheesetoochalk Says, in 4-16-2009 at 23:21:49 from 163.118.99.42

I think he’s gonna do it guys. He’s gonna make his way back officially to the top 5 LHWs.

His training looks good. But who knows, Chuck might have a lil secret of his own. CHUCK WINS BY KO!!!

I hope he doesn’t blow his knees doing does jumping things with the weights. The only way big belly chuck is going to beat shogun is if he gives him a good blow to head that will ake him go to sleep.

hmmm i saw him take some deep breaths, chuck liddel can go 5 5’s easy, shogun better be getting that cardio up.

Drewzilla Says, in 4-17-2009 at 01:45:21 from 75.41.183.176

Shogun definitely looks a lot better physically than he has since joining the UFC. He was smart to finally change training camps and start taking his cardio and strength training seriously. We all know he has the technique/tools to beat anybody at 205 lbs. Liddell has KO power, but is too much of a one trick pony. Shogun wins by TKO in 2nd round.

Shoguns belly is gone!

Crud Bucket Says, in 4-17-2009 at 02:43:51 from 68.97.154.18

doesn’t look good for chuck. with his back injury, his leg injury and the fact that he’s been KO’d twice recently (keeping in mind it gets easier and easier to knock someone out the more they’ve been KO’d) and the fact that even though Shogun has had injuries of his own, he’s still young enough to work around that and hasn’t been put to sleep like chuck….doesn’t look good

Shogun is hungry

-kuey- Says, in 4-17-2009 at 06:46:48 from 82.46.186.119

Man! i soo hope shogun comes back this time! I still think he has the potential to be the one of the top 3 in the world!

Rex Says, in 4-17-2009 at 07:02:32 from 128.241.88.16

Just punch his ass on that beer belly and you’ll be alright Rua.

rocco55 Says, in 4-17-2009 at 08:07:55 from 24.128.245.157

Let’s be honest that was not Sean Sherk or Rich Franklin’s workouts by far. I hope he’s in shape, but it seemed like he really wasn’t pushing himself to the limit.

Drew Says, in 4-17-2009 at 11:56:13 from 207.210.26.156

I agree with rocco55. These workouts are tough for the average person, but very average for an MMA fighter. I still don’t see Shogun with the gas to go three. I think Chuck clips a gassed out Shogun by late second round.

rob Says, in 4-17-2009 at 12:05:01 from 67.80.42.36

That was a weak workout. He will gas if it reaches round 2.

chewbacca Says, in 4-17-2009 at 14:42:49 from 38.117.106.242

Glad to see not everyone here thinks Shogun doesn’t stand a chance at beating Chuck. The mans had TWO recent knee surgeries, obviously hes going to be out of shape. I had to get my ACL reconstructed and man it was tough, completely ruins your cardio. He’s lookin pretty good now though, hopefully Shogun can take it!

ymbsnakeeye Says, in 4-17-2009 at 16:15:27 from 70.166.64.3

you guys think that little clip can show his training??? no it just shows a preview but of course you dont get the full idea about it. I will say this though he has lost a lot of weight and some of those exercises looked like polymetric which is for explosiveness. I think he will have a lot more striking power going into this fight then people realize.

030988 Says, in 4-17-2009 at 16:22:26 from 72.177.205.28

Ok…. lets not judge good or bad by a 5 minute video lol
With that being said i hope they both bring A game… I dont think chuck can beat a at-his-best shogun but i think a concentrated motivated old chuck and a on his way back up shogun will be an awsome fight lol

mmalove Says, in 4-17-2009 at 17:56:57 from 129.8.21.224

Chuck by KO and Rua buckled on floor… no favorites here…..they can both TIE for what I care……..lol

BEENZ Says, in 4-17-2009 at 22:02:04 from 71.109.110.24

I’m a big time Shogun fan and as soon as I found out that Shogun and Chuck were going to fight, I’ll admitt that I was scared for him because Shogun lately hasn’t looked his best.I’m glad to see that Shogun is training hard in the right areas;his cardio,boxing,and a little on his strength.As for the my outcome for the fight,I think it’s going to be a stand up war between the two.Someone’s getting knocked OUT and I hope it’s not Shogun.My money’s on Shogun in the second round.

Irootoko Says, in 4-17-2009 at 22:43:13 from 75.157.47.68

I am going with Shogun on this one. Even if Chuck was to win he doesn’t have it in him to put 3-4 wins together back to back to get the belt back.

gummo-815 Says, in 4-18-2009 at 08:40:58 from 75.21.113.147

i hate chuck lidell. he is so one dimensional. chuck by k.o. in the second.

gummo-815 Says, in 4-18-2009 at 08:41:59 from 75.21.113.147

and shogun tests positive fo banned substances after the fight. you heard it here first.

rugburn Says, in 4-18-2009 at 11:17:30 from 24.15.158.196

Oh this is a tough one!!! Chuck has been getting KO’d and Shogun has been out of shape. Only one of those problems are fixable, being the latter. Since Shogun has made significant improvements in his conditioning and standup, along with a host of tricks from his training camp he should win. But you can’t count Liddel out bc Rua’s aggressive style falls perfectly into Chuck’s strength (The counter Right)!!! I’m sure Rua’s team prepared him for this so Rua by Submission!!! Yeah you heard right!!!
