Rashad didn't beat Tito? Count punches landed, shoot attempts to success, and overall control of the fight... not to mention if that fight had 1 more minute Tito was going to get pounded on the ground. I love Tito and have loved him since he use to do bare knuckle fighting in small gyms, but the guy lost the fight. People can talk all they want about Rashad, hell I don't really care for him too much either, but a good fighter earns my respect. He hasn't lost and he has had to fight some very talented people.

He barely squeeked out a draw against tito. and that was with tito getting a point deducted! Plus i think tito still won that fight. so yeah, i'm happy evans is out.

well,
the Rashad fight went from “cool” [Liddell].. to “what??” [Irvin].. to “wow, that’s just pointless!” [-Luiz Cane-]

just go ahead and take him off the card…”

called it..

idk what they’re going to do with Evans.. but rather than putting the Liddell/Evans fight back in the works.. they need to just go back to the VERY FIRST plan.. and give us Liddell/Shogun in Oct. or Aug. or something.. and find Evans another can or something… or maybe give him Thiago back..

idk..
but this HAS TO BE the most changes an event has have undergone before it took place, am i right??

There was no sense in having Rashad fight Cane, after Irvin dropped out as well. Plus I'd rather see Marquardt-Leites anyways, even if Evans was still fighting Irvin. There is no real headliner fight on this card, but there is a bunch of interesting fights. Smart move overall. There was no sense in having Rashad fight Cane, after Irvin dropped out as well.
