Rampage vs Rumble in their prime

Rumbles style may not have looked as 'pretty' but I think he might get it done with his sheer power, timing, striking variety (headkicks, body kicks, southpaw stance, uppercuts, shovel hooks, cross), and ability to cut off the ring.

Although I'd probably be rooting for Rampage and I believe that MMA skill and technique level hasnt evolved as much as people think in the last 10 years. I dont know if there is any guy in heavyweight today that could box like Fedor, Stipe comes close.

Pride never die.
 
Prime Rampage was a way better technical boxer,
had better wrasslin'.

And Prime Page had a fckng good chin.

Rampage TKO 2
 
Great fight, Rampage was more well rounded and had TONS more heart so I’d have to lean him.
 
What exactly is Prime Rampage?

2003 when he got destroyed by Wand?
2004 when he got destroyed by Wand?
2005 when he got destroyed by Shogun?
2008 when he lost to Griffin?
2009 when he scraped by Jardine?
2010 when he got dominated by Rashad?
2011 when he got dominated by Jones?
2012 when he got dominated by Bader?
2013 when he got dominated by Teixeira?


Rampage's prime, if it ever existed, was a narrow window in 2006-2007 where he assembled a total of two good wins over Liddell and Hendo, and a forgettable split decision win over Matt Lindland. At best, his Prime ended with his loss to Jones, and he never really recovered.

Prime Rumble KO'ed Bader/Teixeira/Gustafsson and dominated Phil Davis.

It's not even close. Prime Rumble > Prime Rampage.

Shut up asshole!
 
I'm a much bigger fan of Page but I believe that the Rumble that dominated Bader and Gus would sadly be too much for him.
 
I'd like to say Rampage but if Rumble hit him clean it's lights out.
 
You guys are crazy, Rumbles striking is way better than Rampage at any point in his career and he's twice as fast. Rumble kills him.
 
Rampage. Better wrestler, Rumble also fights very differently when he faced hard hitters while Rampage doesnt care
